1990 Western Semis Game 5. Suns close out Lakers on their home floor 4-1
I was 5 and wondering what my dad was watching. I saw KJ beating everyone off the dribble and getting to the rim anytime he wanted. He became my favorite player and the Suns, my favorite team. If KJ played in today's league with perimeter player friendly rules, he would average 30 and 15.
Damn Penny was ballin. Sigh. What might have been. It's amazing how many times I've said that phrase in regards to my beloved Suns. We truly are the most cursed NBA franchise.
everytime i see penny playing like that it just makes me think how much it really sux to have those injuries.you cant control it but some people are just unlucky as hell with it.if him and grant hill dont get injured like that then the nba story the past 15 years is written differently i believe.
Man, that Jrich 3 Pointer cuts deep because how similar it was to Tim Thomas' 3. When he banked it in, I was like "**** YEAH!, we're going to win it in OT and knock the Lakers out .....AGAIN!"
Then Kobe airballs, Jrich brainfarts and forgets to box out while Tru Warrior tracks the ball down. If Jrich would've stepped in front, Artest would've knocked him down with his momentum and we would have got an over the back call.
Please Suns, win a ring before my 99th birthday. Just once!!!!!
wow, whoever put that video together REALLY didn't like Charles Barkley, huh? The guy was responsible for the biggest Suns plays of all time (Game 6 against The Spurs/the steal in 3OT in Game 3 of the Finals/44 and 24 against Seattle, etc., etc...) and there's not ONE play of his in there.
