1 Seed teams do get bounced from the playoffs, Westbrook is due for crazytown any day, Spurs...they old. Anything can happen, Barkley just mad because Jordan was born. :p

Funny stuff.

Unbelievable win. I'm not gonna lie I thought we were gonna lose this game when we couldn't get a single stop by Suns showed heart and passion in that final 2 minutes.

Who would have predicted that Telfair would have been a defensive specialist at the beginning of the season?

Great win. I'm very very impressed.

I gotta say that I'm a bit surprised and impressed that Frye hit both his free throws at the end of the game. :) That's something he's struggled with.

Great win! I think we played subpar offensively, but we'll take it.

Full credit for the win goes to 82. He got off his ass, walked away from the keyboard and actually showed up at the game and got loud for the Suns with some other folks! He showed up, and delivered!

Who is going to show up next game?

And they put Telfair on Chris Paul defensively. The Suns had Nash and Telfair out there together near the end of the game. Telfair has brought some intensity to the PG position especially on defense. I don't think Chris Paul enjoyed having Telfair up there in his grill.

I know Gentry has taken a lot of flak by some this year but the move to insert Telfair in the crunch vs Paul and playing with Nash absolutely won the game for us. I was very impressed by Telfair's tenacity and by not quitting on that play where he got hung up on the screen, he was able to come up with that huge block on Paul.

Thumbs up!

I am guessing that was planned prior to the game when it was clear Hill wasn't going to play. Paul can score at will on Nash.

Another reason why Gentry may be in the running for coach of the year.

He won't get coach of the year, but he definitely deserves consideration.

And who the hell thought after ALL these years of trying to find a legitimate backup to Nash, it would be Sebastian Freaking Telfair of all people. Took him awhile to get going, but he's been playing really well lately.

Putting Telfair on CP3 was probably an Elston Turner move.

Gentry doesnt have the balls to make a great move like that.

Since when. Gentry is the head coach. He makes the final decision on everything.

A shame he didn't make the move to put Telfair on Lawson tonight....or Brown on Lawson and Nash on Afflalo who didn't really have a great night.
