For all the believers…

[Hat]

WTF. Was any of this needed? He's a better Sun's fan than anyone on here.

Quiet, I'm giving you a technical!

 

[MiamiHeat]

because he's not a real suns fan. he's a shaq fan, charlie. he really does care only about shaq, but he tries to pass off a real love for the -team- and your long suffering fans (the REAL fans) have to be told how to feel by this guy?

it is totally understandable to feel that way.

 

[Chaplin]

I have not said one word about his love for Shaq till now.

But I'm tired of the non-chalant attitude that the Suns are in OK position and everything will be all right. NO they are not so wake the **** up!

And again, what do you care? There are plenty of people that have given up on the team that you can talk to. I don't think you have the right to begrudge him his opinion, however unrealistic you might think it is.

 

[Stout]

Well, giving up 16-point leads late and coming out like zombies after playing well in the first half is NOT something championship teams do. It's not something teams that advance do. From this point on, unless we limit ourselves to almost no errors, we'll have to play each and every game like cornered dogs. Since we can't seem to play with even minimal errors, and we never seem to do well playing with desperate passion and drive, I'd say our chances are slim indeed.

 

[Mirth]

Their not pinin'! Their passed on! This team is no more! They have ceased to be! Their expired and gone to meet their maker!

Their a stiff! Bereft of life, they rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch they'd be pushing up the daisies!

'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig!

They have kicked the bucket, they have shuffled off the mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!!

THIS IS AN EX-TEAM!!

...Sorry I had to borrow this from the Monty Python Dead Parrot Skit. It just seemed to fit...

He has faith in Shaq and the team to get out of this funk. Nothing wrong with that.

And what the hell are you here trolling for? You hate Shaq, but here you are, and all you can do is jump down the throat of someone that likes Shaq. Sour grapes, buddy.

stout, you ever moving out here or what?

Yes I have the right to say whatever I want, it's my opinion of what I "think" his posts are all about. Whether for him to ignore it is his perogative.

That is a personal attack that has no bearing on anything whatsoever.

i clarified a point in which I had to remind him that Alonzo Mourning was the better Center in the 2006 NBA Finals, by far.

and shaq does flop. you are new to the shaq exposure so i dont blame you for believing what he says. however look at recent games when shaq flies back to take a charge.

THAT IS A FLOP. there is no way 180 pound tony parker makes 340 pound 7ft tall Shaq fall down. he flops to take charges. so your sig is wrong.

dont worry, you will learn eventually that shaq's mouth runs a lot. he recently said KG doesnt play D, lol. Grats KG on another Defensive player of the year. in time you will learn that shaq is full of it.

 

[Hat]

No it's not. A personal attack would be "You're an idiot Andrew, and have no clue what you are talking about"

Look, I apologized to him in a PM, so let's just drop it.

 

[bigfoot]

Charles Barkley is a believer! He just says he thinks we can do it.

Great, round mound of putdown just jinxed us.

 

[Darth Llama]

If the Suns come back and Win, it's going to be funny watching everyone jump on Andrews Band Wagon.

It's not over yet, it's unlikely the Suns will win, but far from impossible. Can't you guys just let Andrew be optimistic? What's he really doing that's so wrong?

 

[Stout]

stout, you ever moving out here or what?

Nah, I'm actually out of acting for now. It's about only being able to make 3 auditions in 2 months because I'm broke and in debt, and about not seeing a dentist in 4 years. Sad but true fact of that kind of life. I'll be using my Criminal Justice degree shortly and working on reforming the worst juvenile criminals Pennsylvania has to offer LOL

You gotta remember in 04 when the Lakers were down 2 games to the Spurs and won 4 straight...god I remember like it was yesterday.

damn, Ouchie and I were looking forward to adding you to our Cardinals Crew on Sunday's this fall. Good luck with the criminals!

You know I remember that. I also remember being up on Phoenix in 2006 and watching the Suns come back and take it in 7. Yes, the Lakers sucked that year, but the point is, it can be done. It's been done before and the Suns are as good as any team that's done it before them.

Except the Lakers.

 

[Andrew]

See anything is possible as cliche as that is. If the players didn't believe, they wouldn't show up to play.

I really expect the Suns to fire on all cylinders Friday.

 

[MiamiHeat]

He's not doing anything wrong. Maybe real suns fans just don't like to see shaq-bandwagon fans telling them how to feel, but really andrew has a right to post.

as for me, i just wanted to clarify some facts about the 2006 NBA finals.

 

[jagu]

You do mean for the first half or 3 quarters.

we're not talking about a soft dallas mavericks team against a team that has dwyane wade, all time great HOF coach pat riley, and amazing backup players like alonzo mourning.

we aren't talking about a laker team with smush and kwame "i promise i wont let you down, mr. jordan" brown

this is the Spurs we are talking about. it's possible, but 4 out of the next 5 vs the Spurs ? not even Vegas would take that bet

 

[Andrew]

Wow you have that much free time? To go searching on random forums about the 2006 finals so you can "clarify" things?

God I envy you. Usually when I am not sleeping I lead a productive life. One where I go to school and work...

 

[Hat]

People said that about tonight as well

 

[MiamiHeat]

Spurs - Suns is THE playoff series to watch right now. Like it or not, the sports world is loving the NBA playoffs and this series in particular. I would have enjoyed a Lakers-Suns first round a lot more, but whatever.

lastly, you are going to be held accountable when you lie.

I agree. I'm not saying I think Phoenix will do it, I said that the winner of tonights game takes the series, and I still think that. I'm just saying it's not impossible. You won't see me putting any money on the Suns, but at the same time, I'm not going to say it would totally shock me to see the Suns get back in it. I still don't feel there is THAT big of a difference in talent between the two teams.
