You too bro. Otherwise there won't be a single person who knows about basketball on here at all.
Whoops, bball13 I mistook you for a Spurs fan for some reason. Guess I am tired! Thought it was unusal for a Spurs fan to actually see some sense in what happened in the game tonight. You will have to come on this board more often.

You guys finished yet?
I give credit to Suns fans. Even the worst of them are better than the top of the line Mav fans.![]()
Another reason the suns lost besides free throws.... spurs 29 points of turnovers... suns 2
That's pretty classless. Manu flops and hurts a guy who's just standing there.
There is a thing called karmic retribution. One of these days, Manu's going to flop, and blow out one of his own knees (for a change). And he'll deserve it.
Anyway, regarding this game - sure, there were a couple of bs calls that changed the game. But the Suns lost this game - mainly because they couldn't hold onto a big lead. Who cares about a foul here and a bad call there. If you're up by 9 in the late 4th, you'd better win. The Suns' mistake at the end was leaving TP open for two open 3's; they should have maintained single coverage on Duncan.
In the bigger picture, though, this will just fire up the Suns. It is very possible for them to put together a 10-game winning streak, and everything will be fine again. Judging from what I saw today, I don't think that SA is capable of beating the Suns - if they can keep everyone healthy, and gel as a team.
Good luck - if the Suns are out, I'd much rather have Finley win a le than the classless Mavs fans. Even though some of your guys are posting some classless comments, I'll take the average Spurs fan over the average Mavs fan anyday.
You may have a point

Raja injured himself by falling into Kurt and the floor.
Nice move.
Raja Bell is the dirtiest player in the league now that Malone has left it. If you want to talk about karmic retribution--he deserved what he got.
Un- ING-believable.
Did you not have your eyes on when Raja smacked Manu in the face, and Leandrinho knocked him off balance while in the air, before that? That play could have easily injured Manu, and both fouls were intentional, unlike the accidental bump that unlikely ended up with Raja tasting his own well deserved medicine.
If you're asking for karmic retribution, it was already taken care of.
That's what I'm saying. Manu was vindicated, after he took that cheap shot to his face from Bell. Raja Bell is a weak-minded pussy.
Damn, some people have to work - can't be on basketball forums all night long...
Some of you Spurs fans are very classless. Raja has rib cartlidge damage and Nash has a hip strain thanks to Manu. I just wish the guy would play to his abilities(which he has many) instead of all the flopping and dramatics. Not cool to injure other players. Also Bowen does things that are not cool either to other players and it is not called good defense as some of you have said. I do not approve of what Raja did to Kobe, all these types of plays are uncalled for. Just play the game instead of flopping and injuring other players.
On another note, Duncan gets away with much more whining than any other player lately. Quite a few times he should have had a technical called against him last night. If they are going to call technicals for putting your hands up in the air they should give him technicals for throwing the ball and jumping in the air after a foul is called and for constantly talking to the refs after calls. I have to agree Manu, Bowen and Parker have toned it down a lot from last year but not Duncan.
Also to whoever said we just took jumpshots, we outscored you in the paint last night. So I still think it was freethrows that won the game and Raja not making his freethrow in the last seconds of overtime. The Spurs are not as great a defensive team as they have been in the past as evidenced by last night's shooting percentage by the Suns and by the points in the paint by the Suns. Just count yourself lucky that your team won last night because when the Suns gel you may have your hands full.
So it was luck and not talent or ability or skill....ok.
Jesus, first pistons, then mavs, now do they need a Sunstalk forum here?
Two words for you. Lasik surgery. Wouldn't it be great to actually see an NBA game?
Suns played great for 46 minutes, just like they always do against the Spurs.
Suns could not get a single goddamn stop in the last 2 minutes, just like they always don't against the Spurs.
Typical Suns loss to the Spurs. Luckily, the Suns don't seem to have that same problem against the Mavs, so tonight should result in a W.
dbestpro,
Have you tried watching an NBA game in which your Spurs have played without "rose colored glasses on"?
it's easy to TARGET champions....whether bad fouls,flopping,t's etc....
THE PRICE to pay i suppose.......
by the way - speaking of the suns --does anyone have a link to the longest running thread ? (nash )....I want to contribute
certainly, I believe its time its resurrected anyway![]()
