No. A Suns fan focusing on officiating? Never happen.

That's the problem with the internets. Any idiot can write something for mass distribution.
Give it up. Its a physical series things are going to happen.
Sorry that the Suns are used to playing against the Lakers and the Mavs. Spurs Basketball is just a little different.
A friend of ours came over to have dinner during the game. She isn't a giant basketball fan, and isnt a Spurs fan at all, but she pointed out Amare throwing his hip into Fin on that pump fake. The Dirty thing really needs to die already.
Wow between all those guys there is a total of 15 rings in that picture.
If that is dirty, I dont want to be clean.![]()
Dirty or not, I go with the Spurs because they are pound for pound the toughest team in the NBA. They don't talk through the media, but they do go at your ass hard and force you to either play tough or go home. The ultimate versitile team - they took on Denver's physical toughness and out matched their skill, and now are taking on the Suns skill but out matching their muscle and toughness. It's great to see.
yeah.. those "animation pictures" are not funny
Good stuff.

LMAO that writer got owned on the comments. what a crybaby
How soft does a team have to be for the Spurs to look like bruising thugs by comparison? The Suns should exchange their shorts for skirts.
What makes it worse is that Steve Nash, for one, is a warrior. D'Antoni has molded the rest of that team into withering nancies, Amare most of all.
The Mavs vs Spurs series last season or even the Spurs vs Pistons series 2 years ago was about 5 times more physical with "dirty" play compared to this series. Problem is Stern has turned the NBA into a game for offensive-minded sissies, hence es like Ray Allen, Vince Carter, and Amare tend to whine and complain when they don't get ticky-tacky foul calls go their way and they don't get their regular 20-30 ppg. It's starting to become a real pain to have to listen to NBA players about "physical contact" in basketball. I blame David Stern.
Meh. Most of you didn't watch basketball before the Pistons implemented the Jordan rules. Knocking a guy on his ass as hard as you can just because he's better than you gets old, and there's a reason that it's been taken out of basketball.
Well at least they are not calling us soft anymore.
Jeez, they probably would have been crying bloody murder if they played the Nuggets.
OK, OK OK! for Phoenix Suns fan's satistifaction.... SPURS ARE DIRTY!!
The comments under the poor blog are more entertaining!
Here's a real gem from a Phoenix fan:
Here's my take on this..
The Spurs are being toyed with by the refs/commish. Suns will pull out a long drawn out 7 games. Suns will win game 4 at Spurs come home and win game 5 but lose at Spurs game 6. (Maybe not those exact games but Suns win 2, Spurs 1 more with game 7 as the tie breaker.) Suns will become victorious game 7 back at home. It would be a boring series if they let them sweep the Spurs. (No viewers if too boring.) Suns win Jazz in next series in 6 games. (Sorry, I just don't see the Warriors being allowed this year. I maybe wrong though)
Suns play, should be Detroit, but the Jason Kidd coming back to play his old team that he got kicked out of may be their angle this time out.
Suns go on to win Championship in 6-7 games. (6 games with Kidd or 7 with Detroit)
Suns have to keep it together this series and not let the Spurs not get in their heads. Stay away from injuries to their key players. Their hard work will be/should be rewarded in the end.
NBA is hurting with the lack of interest in the sport. The latest “stars” are getting slow and older. They just can’t keep a whole team afloat.
Team work and speed looks so much better than the traditional ball hogger any day. Maybe bring in more interest but they have to clean it up and actually bring back a fair and consistent compe ion before they can regain anyone’s trust.
