Wow, The Spurs would never of swept the Suns. They were a damn good team.
Amare is gone and now the Suns are a lottery team and will be for the foreseeable future. Way to go, Sarver.

Real pity that Suns fans are stuck with such a tightwad for an owner. Nash deserved better.
I feel for you man, at least you've got Nash coming off the books soon then you can at least start rebuilding.
No he doesn't. He signed an extension with that tightwad owner.
Wrong again, and ridiculously so. Both of them ran past their coach into the scrum, and Amare knew he was in trouble, because he lied about it in the press conference, saying he was just going to the scorers table to check in. This is not a Patrick Ewing where someone stepped over the line onto the floor, as the NBA amended the rule after he was suspended. These are rules that every team knows, and that have been in place for years. What the Suns and their fans wanted was for the NBA to overlook the rules just for them or to change them on the fly.
Nobody can claim that they had a chance to win the series when they wanted the league to cheat for them and then couldn't pull out a must-win game against a shorthanded opponent.
I hate the Suns and (some of) their fans, but it does suck that they aren't relevant. Why Amare would have followed D'Antoni just puzzles me.
YEP! THE RIVARLY WAS FUN! Last year they swept us and this year we are better than last year easily IMO, so why not one more year of it in the playoffs? We could use one more go round, but not gonna happen again.

This would be a fun series this year IMO, too bad J RICH is gone, Amare and Dragic, damn idiot owner.
If they were robbed, they held the gun to their own heads. They had both suspended players back, were at home, and still fumbled away game 6. THAT'S why they were never winning the series.
BTW, none of the owners voted to change the leaving the bench rule after the season, even Robert Sarver. For all the whining about being "robbed", nobody changed it.
That's probably because most, if not all of them remember those awful Heat/Knicks series of the 90s that always seemed to devolve into hockey games, complete with fights, goons, and enforcers. No one wants that, and if players forget, they sit.
Exactly. When it comes right down to it, it's a great rule, and it's in place to prevent guys like Amare and Diaw from doing what they did.
