Nash just blamed the NBA

[GrandeDavid]

LOL!!! Right... unconscious... show me one article... from a REAL source that says Tony was unconsious. He was a crying little actor baby... he learned his acting from his ho Eva.

Okay, its about time you leave now. You never threw heat, but now you are lobbing wiffle balls. And as you leave, the funny thing is I know that deep down you will feel a sense of indignation at Steve Nash's icing on the cake - the postgame cryfest, which thoroughly ingrained how soft and hollow the Suns are. Nobody will remember you guys. Your window is about shut. Steve is closer to 35 than 30, your team has serious luxury tax issues. Get out of here now, please.

A big consolation hug to you. I wish I could kleenex your cheeks for you.

Nice to see the media and even other team's message boards finally realizing and turning against the Suns, their owner, their coach, their players, and their fans constatnt whining. Suns have made a joke of themselves.

Someone post the Sour Grapes pic.

All I have to say is WCF here we come!

here you go:

Did we not just win game 6 the same way we won in 2005? Amare got his and shut everyone else down?

[cherylsteele]

I think the belief is the Suns would win a game seven in Phoenix because the city would have willed it. The Spurs did not want to go to Phoenix because they knew it would be the hardest road win in franchise history to pull off. And I think that would be the accurate opinion if a game seven was played in San Antonio. Most analysts and players will say that home court advantage means everything in game seven and means little any other game.

Just like game 5 when you the Suns were up by about 10 points with about 4 minutes left and lost? A game the you shoulda, coulda won but didn't?

[cherylsteele]

Look at the box score dude. This was an incredibly close game all across the board.

close but none of these for you:

The Suns should be THANKFUL that the rule is there. If it wasn't, Stoudamire & Diaw probably would have gotten into a full-fledged fight and been suspended for MORE than 1 game.

Somtimes, people are like babies and can't understand that even though the medicine tastes bad at the moment, in the long run it'll be good for you. The anti-brawl rules are there for a VERY good reason and they will be enforced, even on the whiny Suns.

[cherylsteele]

Meanwhile, it's just killing you guys knowing that your team will never get full credit for this series victory.

Better partial credit than no credit at all.

[MISSMAAM]

Wooohooo, my first post.


Alright, this is what I'm trying to understand. Nash didn't even show up the first 3 quarters of this last game...so where is the talk about all of that? I'm confused...which woulda shoulda done-a is that? THEN although Amare had 38 points...has anyone noticed that the two of them seemed to flip flop on which half they would show up for? As much as I respect the Suns for the valiant effort...me thinks they would've been tired by the last two games even if Stoudamire and Diaw hadn't been suspended? I mean let's keep it real...the Spurs bench is just deeper but nobody seems to want to factor that into the series if it had gone into a game 7. Let's not forget their coach is not the brightest when it comes to subs utions, the fatigue would've set in....so enough of the ifs and buts...

[dnsa]

after all that mad love he gave everyone out on the court after the game and he turns around and says something so pathetic like he did.

IF PHOENIX IS SOOOOOO GREAT THEY SHOULD HAVE WON GAME 1!!!


Don't blame the NBA for your teams ups

RIGHT, EVERYONE FORGETS THEY LOST GAME 1 AND THE HOMECOURT ADVANTAGE.

[spurster]

Nash has been Bowened.

[peskypesky]

Didn't say it was happening more to Nash. His team is down, he's playing his ass off, it's an elimination game ... I'm going to scream my head off too if I think I'm getting hacked and the no-call leads to a turnover.

Umm....then why do y'all complain when Duncan complains about being fouled. It's okay for you and Nash, but not the Spurs?

you and your double standards you stinking piece of e.

[LoVeNSpuRs]

STERN owns Steve Nash...

If you ask me it is all the SPURS fans who are the whiners... all I ever hear is "the rules are the rules" while the rest of the world knows the series was tainted.

Like I said before, if the series would have gone 7 and the Spurs won in Phoenix they could have saved face... but now they are worse than the Mavs... at least the Mavs can choke and save face. They will be back next year. The Spurs will get burried after this year... Utah will beat them and then they will be the ugly step child that nobody likes.

Curious.. What would you have said if the situation was reversed? 2 of OUR players suspended for stepping onto the court during an altercation and all you hear from us ALL week long is how unfair this is and.. if 2 of our "best players" weren't suspended because of that "hard foul" .. or we would & could have won the series if only... and the Suns were handed this series and blah blah blah. We all know the rule is stupid, i don't recall anyone every disputing that but I am really curious to know what the Phoenix Suns Fans might have said. "The rules are the rules" ??

[LoVeNSpuRs]

Nash has been Bowened.

that's awesome.

[Mavs<Spurs]

You're exactly right.

Which is why they won game four.

And if they hadn't lost game 1, that would have meant something. Since they lost game 1 at home, game 4, meant both teams, in essence held serve. So, game 6 would have been the game on the road that they needed to get.

Basically, the championship teams wins one more on the road than the other team does.

Phoenix didn't.


And then, with 18 seconds left and the game essentially over, a frustrated, pissed off Horry pulled a punk move and gave the Spurs that shot they needed to regain home court.

Did Horry put a gun to the head of Amare and Diaw and force them to leave the bench?

Is the rule new?

Is the penalty subject to the discretion of the league or is it automatic?



The Spurs should've massacred the Suns in game five, instead they were lucky to win.

That's just ignorant. Nobody thought that it would be an easy, blowout win in Phoenix. The whole town forgot about the law of cause and effect and about taking responsibility for your actions and blamed Horry, Stern and God Himself for their fate. As a result, it was an unbelievably hostile environment which makes up for the absence of Amare. Teams rise to the occasion with the home crowd in such cir stances. They can't do it in the long run, but on any given night. And it is hard to play a short handed team.
The Spurs deserve a lot of credit for winning under those cir stances. None of the analysts predicted the Spurs to win the game.

No, you don't understand: it's best of 7- they had to get this win on the road and they didn't.

Why did we beat them 3 out of the other 5 games?

If your team relies upon a player with a low iq and he does something stupid, then I guess your team is not as good as you think!!!

We have won 9 out of the last 13 games with Amare playing.

What do you think?

[clambake]

Much of this could have been cured with a game 7.

[picnroll]

Much of this could have been cured with a game 7.

Blame the Suns then. They were the ones that were supposed to get it to game 7.

[peskypesky]

We all know the rule is stupid, i don't recall anyone every disputing that but I am really curious to know what the Phoenix Suns Fans might have said.

You're wrong. The rule is not stupid. Anyone who doesn't understand the purpose and effectiveness of the rule is stupid.

[clambake]

The mavs made history, so did the spurs.

[WalterBenitez]

Nash you are better than that ... You should say stop making stupid things to you kids, rather than blame NBA (did I say that)

[Agloco]

If you think those were "miracle" shots, you haven't seen enough Suns games. That's how they play. Props to the Spurs defense for shutting it down most of the series, but there wasn't anything miraculous in the Suns making those shots at the end.

Luck mixed in with some extreme BS like Nash firing away and making everything he threw up all of a sudden. And lets not forget Amare making his FIRST THREE POINTER OF THE ING SEASON.........

Lets cut to the chase shall we?

If thats the way the Suns play, you cant wonder why they get bounced each year. Be honest now, how far do pull up threes take you on a consistent basis.

I'll focus on that aspect alone and let the part about Amares three go I guess.......

[Viva Las Espuelas]

I feel he should be fined for his "stupid rule" comment. i guess the nba showed mercy in that case.
