Just want to apologize for not believing!

Great fricken game overall. I hope what happened at the end doesnt make this unfair for game 5. If they suspend Diaw and Amare we are screwed!

Very Exciting! Cant wait till the next one!

The Suns had no business winning the game. SA totally outplayed them for 3 1/2 quarters. Everything they would throw up went in. Nash missed game end free throws.

This is a gutsy team. Home court advantage again. Yea!

They were on fire in 3rd and we were really struggling. Their lead started to grow, but what a gutsy, gutsy, gutsy game by the team!!!

The Suns have way more overall talent than the Spurs. So far they've beaten the Lakers 4-1 and are 2-2 with the Spurs and have only played a few good games by their standard. If they can get their heads together and have everyone play a complete game...

If the Suns can finally find their long range shooting eye, it would be huge.

A 3-game series with the Suns at home for 2. Suns in seven . . .

. . . if D'Antoni doesn't leave KT on the bench at key times.

When he had Amare guarding Duncan, and picking up fouls 4 and 5 in succession, I was screaming at the TV.

The Coach is lucky that Duncan also got his 5th.

In the 3rd quarter I was just like 'welp, the Spurs are just plain better'. When they were shooting 13/17 in the 3rdQ I was ready to just tip my hat to them. If a team can shoot that well and hold the Suns to 43% FG they deserve. Luckily we had a little something left in the tank... GO SUNS!!! Let's all pray now that there is no Amare and Diaw suspension..

They really showed something so many other Suns teams lacked in the past --- grit.

This is the happiest I've felt about this team since the 92-93 team. I rank this one better than the awesome win over Dallas a couple of years ago.

Me too - didn't lose faith in Nash or the team (although I thought they were just too young as a whole to pull it off), but in the NBA and the Suns luck.

Decided right then and there we were destined to be the Cubs of the NBA, and I was fine with it. Planned to never watch the playoffs again and just enjoy the regular season.

As I told my wife, I normally get all stoked about comebacks by the Suns, but for this one I was just incredulous. Sitting there stonefaced, not wanting to get too excited or into it, because they would just lose to a big three by Spurs at the end. Could not bear the heartbreak, after so many years.

And sure as schnitz, they did it. Amazing. Just amazing.

Amen to that aj! I was a fanatic back then. I think I am being won over again.

Gutsy win. I'm going to have to watch it again to see how they pulled it out - the Spurs outplayed them bigtime through 3.5 quarters, and they didn't really seem to melt down at the end. The Suns just wanted it more - great to see.

That being said, I'm terrified that Amare and Boris will be suspended a game each. If that happens, I'm officially boycotting Game 5, especially if Horry only gets a game as well. He should be suspended the rest of the series.
