They are getting as bad as Portland and Seattle. :lol
I've always thought Detroit was worse.

Hmmm...a significant portion of the greater Phoenix metropolitan area population consists of retired Caucasian-Americans. Make of that what you will.

They take the lead of Sarver and D'Antoni - stupid *&^$ travels down hill.

Because they don't know basketball.

Most home fans in any city will boo calls against their home team. Is that such a surprising revelation? It happens everywhere.
And, as someone mentioned, Detroit is really bad when it comes to that, even if many of the fans are somewhat knowledgeable.
Beer + pro sports atmosphere often = fans booing obvious fouls and yelling and screaming for no reason
Not a new and uncommon development in pro sports.

Because they think the Spurs have reached the level of rival, but since they've yet to beat the Spurs the Spurs do not.

Spurs fans frequently boo obvious fouls called against the Spurs. Perhaps not with the same level of frustration that Suns fans have booed tonight, but it still happens.

Since most fouls happen while playing defense, they have no idea what a foul really looks like.

No, it really is worse in Phoenix. Mike D'Antoni actually said once that the Suns don't foul. He used those exact words. And I think he really believed them.

Why do Spurs fans in charter seats sit on their ass all night long?

Absolutely. What's your point?
My post wasn't defending Detroit. Why do you need to bring up the brawl for no reason? It doesn't even have anything to do with this topic.
Hate just to hate, huh?

Because unlike the nose bleeds your feet arent on someone elses head down there and if everyone stands up the little kids can't see.
We are standing when it gets interesting hehe

Nose bleed seats are where the real fans sit.

The Suns lead the league in delusions of persecution. Raja Bell was so funny pushing off, falling down, kicking the ball and then complaining about how he was so screwed over.
By the way, did anyone see a correct charge vs. block call at any point, in either direction?

Well Tony did push him on that play.

Sorry, but he absolutely did not. Raja pushed off and just went to the floor. Kerr said that Tony tripped him, but he didn't.

I saw a little bit of a push, Steve kerr called it "incidental contact. to me it looked like parker came in behind Bell with his hand up to swipe at the ball. when bell stopped because duncan was standing in the lane tony knocked him over.

Apparently not. Being a season ticket holder and going to damned near every game only makes you a real fan if you buy the cheaper season tickets.

This is a simple and right answer :oops :oops

Parker pushed him. I watched the game again today. I'm not sure how I missed it the first time. Bell did push off, but Parker helped him.

because they are douche bag mother fuckers that don't get a good idea of what basketball is, considering the type of team they have to watch.
