I don't know from experience, but I hear a lot of women don't really care about that. Good luck to you, though.

I just think think it's funny that people think PHO automatically wins a hypothetical game 7 at home to advance, or that they would beat Utah, who IS as dirty as they say SA is.
2003 Spurs win games 3 and 6
2005 Spurs win games 1,2, and 5
2007 Spurs win games 1 and 5
We OWN their fucking court.

Re: espn pti: 'if the suns were in the finals like a lot of us think they should be'
What was the Spurs all-time record against the Steve Trash Suns? I can't remember if it's 14-4 or 16-4? We've owned em so much times I've forgotten.
Anyways, It was either going to be the Spurs or Jazz. The Suns never had an honest shot at the finals with their mediocre defense. Actually, mediocre is being too kind. Piss poor is more like it.

"2003 Spurs win games 3 and 6

Don't leave out the Spurs' 17-pt, 4th qtr comeback/Manu's 48-pt game/OT win @PHX.
And Phx's record @SA since Nov 2002 is ... ?

Re: espn pti: 'if the suns were in the finals like a lot of us think they should be'
If the Suns are so much better than the Spurs, why don't they quit crying about it and prepare for next season already. The incessant whining of the team and their fans just shows what a classless organization they are.
Once upon a time, the Knicks were screwed in a similiar scenario and lost a series to Miami in 1997 that they felt they should have won. Instead of whining all year about it, they eventually got Miami again, and beat them in their subsequent playoff series 3 consecutive years.
The Suns could learn a very valuable lesson here, but it doesn't appear they will.

We only lost about 50 minutes out of six games... and they should have won the series?
:lol :lol :lol

this incident was typical of the shamefully sorry state of sports media generally.
the spurs dont get credit for beating media darlings phoenix at full strength in a decisive, do-or-die game 6 (hca=automatic win theory)?
these muhjidan assholes are honestly attributing you guys's 4th in 9 to coincidence and fortune. they were ready to award the series to phoenix on the strength of them having split the first four games with you guys and writing the other two games off as not any indication of superiority.
don't get me wrong im not one of these mindless 'mavs are out, i hope some idiot team from the stayte of teyksas wins' assholes. my only interest in remaining NBA finals games is rooted in anti-spurs sentiment.
...than again, i recognize outrageous media bullshit when i see it.
He's on a sports talk tv show. He's picking a side that leaves the most room to be argued/talked about. Whether he believes it or not is not important. Do you think he cares that the side he chooses to take on this particular subject pisses off some people? :rolleyes I'm not defending this particular person just defending the nature of the job he has.
It's amazing to me that some people don't realize this about talk radio and talk tv. I'm hoping they do and are just posting to give this board something to talk about.

Re: espn pti: 'if the suns were in the finals like a lot of us think they should be'
:lol The media loves the Suns, because they are exciting. I'm really not surprised at all that they say this. Unfortunately, only Spurs fans and a few outside fans/analysts watched every full game and saw that the Spurs really outplayed Phoenix the entire series as a whole. I think if Phoenix were better than us, they would have came back and beat us. They didn't, so I personally am assuming that they aren't. Suns fans disagree. That's ok, because my team is in the Finals and theirs isn't.
Oh, and we do own their court. It's our home away from home. I hope we play them again in next year's playoffs and beat them again.

We did, and we won -- even without Big Shot Rob. You need to move on. Really. The whining is beyond sad. :lol :lol

So if the only reason the Spurs won in 99 was because of the shortened season....what does that say for the other teams who weren't able to do that?

i doubt it. fans/audience can smell crap and if it seems like they're arguing just to argue, it quickly loses its charm. besides, there are plenty of times the talking heads agree on stuff (duncan being the best pf comes to mind). folks, a lot of folks, just really believed the suns were a better team (even if it was just by a smidge) and got robbed, regardless if their players actually held the door open for the theives.

Re: espn pti: 'if the suns were in the finals like a lot of us think they should be'
Phoenix lost the series because they have a jackass for a coach. D'Antoni's only response to pressure moments in a game is to throw a fit on the sideline. Like timvp said a couple of weeks ago, swap coaches and the Suns probably win the series in 5.

If the Suns fired Mike D'Antoni and hired Jeff Van Gundy tomorrow, nothing could stand in their path to the 2008 title.
But they'd only average 102 points a game, and we can't have that.
