The thread about favourite Suns lineups got me reminiscing about all the great moments they've had. This has to be up there.

Man that brings back memories! Forgot about that game. What ever happened to Micheal Finley?

That group and the Nash group were the best years for the Suns! I was so into them, as much as I am into the Cards now. After the last strike and after Nash was traded, I wasn't and still not as into them as I was back then. I'm gaining some interest again last year and this year, but those times will never be beat!

I was up in the last row with a Fred Roberts fan club sign.

Crazy how similar that ending was to the 2006 game 4 against the lakers.

What ever happened to Micheal Finley?

He won a championship with SA in 2007. Signed with Celtics in 2010. Celtics reached the NBA Finals he retired after that.

I was kicked out of that game at the 3 minute mark because I was screaming at fans for not cheering, then an older woman walked past me and told my friend I was with he was a disgrace to his family. Proceeded to chase her down the stairs, called her the C-word and got into a fight with her son... getting kicked out in the process.

then in the parking lot, i was furious I got kicked out, someone made some crack that we won... I told them to screw off and it wasn't funny... and proceeded to get in another fight where a tree-trunk got out of a car and sucker punched me in the face. Then chased their car down two levels, tried kicking their windows in when they wouldn't get out of the car, and then out of breath, the guy took a running start and uppercut me so hard that he lifted me off the ground and my head came crashing down on as a parking block.

Ended up in an ambulance, taken to the emergency room with a major concussion and a chipped bone in my neck. Finally got home the next morning at around 6 am and right before I went to sleep, i turned on Sportscenter and right at that moment, they showed the highlights of the last two minutes where I realized I actually did miss the greatest in game Suns comeback against the Lakers of all time.

So, yes.. I remember EVERYTHING about that game... expect the comeback itself.

Good times.

What a game. I love those unis too even though I usually don't like white uniforms.

Highlights of that clip for me:

1) Al McCoy
2) Cotton Fitzsimmons
3) The Jazz music going into commercial
4) Joe Klein

Wow---I love watching the team from the early 90s.

I was surprised by the number of empty seats and the fans did seem a bit subdued. Maybe some of them had already left, VOLUNTARILY.

If only the Morii knew of your story, they would realize that Suns fans can get pretty fired up when they need to.

I was at that game, I remember it well. I was about 14 years old at the time and the (presumed) loss effected me so greatly that my mother wanted to leave with a few minutes to go in fear I would make a scene. As we're leaving my mother, three sheets to the wind, turns and tells these two dudes who were heckling other fans that they're a disgrace, the dudes lose it, call her a c-word and challenge me to a fight.

Those guys were maniacs, barely got out of there alive.

Wait, seriously? This is a suspicious overlap with cheesebeef's story, from the other perspective.

And he was traded for Jason Kidd to Dallas where he was one of their new big3 with Nowitzki and Nash.

LOL. And now you know, the rest of the story.

I was at that game and I never leave until it's a given they have no shot. I have seen people do this at ASU games, Cards games and Suns games only to be sorry later after they pull out a win. My buddy next to me up and left and he bitched about how stupid he was for a week.

 

[Iceman]

That was such a fun team to watch. Sir Charles was a beast

Haha... This would be EPIC if true. But Aaron Drayer (the son) was 21 years old! Unless I told another woman that night she was a C-word... Which in my state of mind that evening was entirely possible!

Phoenix went to the finals in 76' and 93' but 95' was their best chance to win a championship. Blew a 3-1 lead and lost game 7 at home. They would've smoked Orlando in the finals.

94 and 95 were their best chances. Up 2-0, winning the first two games in Houston and blowing that series was painful. And they would have crushed that awful Knicks team in the Finals.

So nice to hear McCoy. Even with his old-age and mistakes I wish he was still doing TV.

Surprised Barkley didn't get thrown out with that foul on Ced.
