    Actually, you just need to assume that the Suns were never going to lose another game, despite the fact that the Horry foul is the only reason the Suns closed out game four.
    Actually the Suns were winning the game at that point already, but they shouldn't have been. If you go back and watch the game, the Spurs were leading by 10+ points when they had to bench Duncan, and suddenly the Suns magically got back in the game.

    The reason they had to bench Duncan was that he had 5 fouls; 3 of those fouls were bad calls. It's not just me saying that, either: after each of the 3 bad calls, the announcers said 'That was a bad call.'

    Without Duncan missing for that stretch, the Suns never win that game. Also others have pointed out that the Suns had their full complement of players when Duncan stole home-court advantage from them in game 1. The series ended 4-2, and we won game 6 without Horry (the 'rightful' champions couldn't even take it to 7 games when we were missing a key role player- the Spurs were blowing them out too before they coasted to the win). Pretend les is all the Suns will ever have, though, so I doubt any amount of evidence will convince them that they don't deserve $#!%.

    They were winning, but they were up by three with the ball. Nash missed two of his next four free throws, so the Spurs could have had a chance with a normal foul that didn't give Phoenix the ball back.

    Timmy was out for about three minutes in the fourth quarter and the Spurs didn't lose any ground while he was out.

    I've also mentioned this before, but by rule, Nash should have been called for an offensive foul on Horry because you aren't allowed to attempt to dribble between an opponent and a boundary if there's not space to get through.

    The dumbass picked up his second technical foul tonight in a tie game with 4:30 left.
