Of course it does. Do you really think that a significant number of Suns' fans condone a bomb threat?


But it is so easy for the mindless to come here, after a Spurs victory, and talk the weak smack that most have about Suns fans having no class. It surely beats talking basketball logically and objectively. edit: I should add and also to show some class themselves.

I've said nothing wrong

BTW, I was just waiting for someone to post this...

"One person does something and an entire fanbase gets labeled? That's using your noggin!"

Thanks for saying that. So Horry does something and the whole organization is DIRTY?

Nope, when you count ALL of Bowen's actions, as well as Manu flopping people and injuring them, THAT'S when you get labeled dirty.

Horry, Manu, and Bowen are dirty. The rest of the spurs arent dirty, but Duncan never has committed a foul in his life.

Horry, Bowen, Ginosebili != 1.

You can't possibly be that stupid. Whoever called in the bomb threat is one of millions of Phoenix residents. Horry is one of eight Spurs rotation players. Horry has team-sponsored immediate supervisors in charge of what he does on the court. Random Phoenix Lunatic has no city-sponsored immediate supervisor in charge of how he operates his phone.

Do I need to go on?

ONE person called in a bomb threat. It is entirely possible that it was someone that wasn't even in AZ that phoned it in.

Maybe that explains why it was called in so early.
Right now...
9PM AZ time = 11PM Central = 12AM Eastern

Sorry, but that seems to be nearly equally flawed logic. Nash is one of the classiest players in the league. That doesn't make the whole squad classy. Popovich is one of the classiest coaches in the league. That doesn't mean all of his players are classy. I'm not into calling Horry a cheap shot artist. His past indicates otherwise. I sure hope no one ever judges me by one act of stupidity, I think I have a lot of great moments that make up for my mistakes. I would give almost anyone that benefit of the doubt, unless their past is full of acts to the contrary. Horry's is not.

That's assuming that it was even a Suns fan. Anybody reading the headlines and looking at fan polls can clearly see that the Spurs are the most hated team in the NBA right now. I would say the odds statistically are in favor of it being someone from another state.

You Spurs fans are reaching for the stars just to make yourselves feel a little better about being the most hated team in the NBA right now.

I wouldn't consider Popovich classy. I'd consider him brash.

the odds statistically are in favor of it being someone from another state? Jesus Christ - like someone from another state, who really doesn't care about the Suns all that, would take the time to somehow find out exactly where the Spurs are staying (probably not the easiest info to get as opposed to living in Phoenix and knowing where teams usually stay or local radio or media types getting the word the word out), and then calls IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT?!

Sorry, but the above hypothesis is just, quite frankly as naively homeristic as it comes.

It's really not hard at all to find hotel information. It's all in the teams' media guides.

My opinion of him is that he is classy. On Inside the NBA they said that he petitioned the refs to let Nash play after the crack on his nose, and that he intentionally took a full time out vs. a 20 second just to give the trainers more time to stop the bleeding. How many other coaches would have done that with the game on the line. That's class no matter how you spin it.

Pop's comments about Horry's flagrant were not classy.

Talk to reporters who have to interview him after losses. Especially loses that he thinks he was wronged. Popovich is not classy.

"It was just an end-of-game foul and Steve fell down," Popovich said before the penalties were announced. "I didn't think it was such a big deal."

Yep, I can see the class shining through.

It's clear that Arctic is a masked Spurs fan. Just like Barbosa started out acting like he was a Suns fan. Arctic did a slightly better job hiding it, but the truth is, he is just another Spurs troll. Pop classy? Heh. Horry not having any other questionable/dirty acts in the past? Laughable. Be gone, troll.

He doesn't answer obvious questions from reporters. That's not a lack of class, it's understandable.

Yep, I can see the class shining through.

But he didn't complain about it. He just expressed his opinion, and did so in a civilized manner. You never saw him red faced or throwing paper (ahem) and storming off.

Anyways, I'm not here to argue it. It's my opinion, like I said. You can think he's the slime of the NBA coaches, and that can be your opinion too. I'm cool with that. (you'll just have a lot harder time proving it ;) )

So now anyone who disagrees with you is a Spurs troll? Get ready to ban half the board, Chris.

And I didn't say Horry didn't have ANY questionable acts in the past, I said he didn't have a history of it (as in a large amount). If you can prove otherwise, I'll gladly apologize for my ignorance, but I've been an NBA fan for many, many years and I don't recall Horry ever being labeled a dirty player before this series.

No, people on this board disagree with me a lot, more than they agree with me by far. But for a Spurs fan(you) to tell US about what is or isn't classy is about as ass-backwards as it gets.

You should head on back over to Spurstalk.com or whatever hole you climbed out of.

You win this argument. I just can't outwit you.
