Police Respond To Threat At Ritz Carlton: Spurs Hotel

And then he made a sarcastic "oh really" comment, wadded up a piece of paper then cried.

having lived out in the valley for 4 years (went to asu, just graduated) this is xactly what i would except from suns fans. they are the biggest bandwagon fans ever to grace the earth and have an LA sort of confidence about them. i wouldn't be suprised if they throw things at the spurs tonight at the game, to be honest.

That makes sense. They've always kind of reminded me of a poor man's Laker fanbase.

I don't know if this was posted anywhere else, straight from Ksat at noon

Greg Simmons reported there was a bomb threat around 9-9:30 pacific time at the team hotel. They were at the movies at the time and there were no specifics about the threat (whether it was idrected towards the team or not).

Seriously? That's cool that the Spurs went to the movies together! Or do you think they were at a film session? It wouldn't surprise me if they went to a real movie to get their minds off the drama.

The way I hear it, even your cheerleaders get in dirty shots.

You say that like its a bad thing.

Does this give the Spurs the extra motivation to close it out in 6?

[GrandeDavid]

What movie, I wonder?

The Death of the Pretenders

Starring: Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker

Synopsis: Having had enough of their own two left-footed mistakes in prior games, Tim Duncan decides to treat the Phoenix Suns fans and mascot (owner) to a playoff drubbing only felt by Pistons, Lakers, Nuggets and Mavericks Past. The Spurs plow through Phoenix by the weekend and get ready for Utah.

I give it 6 stars!

The Jazz must be loving this They are going to be facing a beatup and emotionally spent team in the WCF, whether it be the Spurs or the Suns

A Nuggets Fan siting. Rich! I thought you fools had just recently had your basketball pride ripped again. Hey, at least you can watch the Rockies aim for the miracle .500 season.

I've worked in Phoenix, and maybe not bomb weilding, but they are wackos

I read yesterday in a national report that Phoenix is #5 in the country in road rage incidents.

I don't think this would be so bad if the Spurs had not been getting in so many extra-shots all series long. So of course Horry does what he does - because the Spurs are dirty, and the Suns - trying to come to the aid of their little leader get suspended. See, unlike the Spurs the Suns don't like playing like that. Raja is probably the only guy who can (and will) but almost everyone else on the team just doesnt do it.

And what, the rest of the Suns aren't joining in the extracurricular activities? Laughable.

If you guys can't see what's wrong with that, if the teams were just reversed then you will continue to lose respect among fans.

I haven't lost respect for the warriors, they have been the anti-christ according to the way Suns fans would describe "dirty".

How many flagrant fouls does it take to be a dirty team? What I also like is taking 1 step on the court during an orgy of violence, is worse than intentionally hitting someone to hurt/injure them. That's the problem the NBA has created. So, I say if the Suns find themselves in the same situation again they need to pull EVERY SUN OFF THE BENCH to defend their player.

EVERY PLAYER. Can the NBA suspend all of them?

Yes they can, 4 players per game, chosen alphabetically. I hope they do this, it will take the focus off the dirty Spurs and place it on the Dumb-as-a-rock Suns. If we do it again, I'm sure we will wait till we are winning by 30 in the last minute of the game so all your best players are on the bench.

Hey Phoenix Fans, San Antonio is in Bexar County.

San Antonio....Anyone...Anyone....

Spurs guard Brent Barry made light of the incident before tipoff on Wednesday. "I couldn't understand it, because Suns fans are too classy for that," he said, tongue lodged firmly in cheek. "But I walked through the lobby and saw [TNT's] Craig Sager. Then it all came together. They were trying to blow up Sager. And who would have a problem with that?" Barry, perhaps angling for the league's good sportsmanship award, forewarned Sager about his intention to blame the threat on him.
