The Suns are in the 2nd round of the playoffs and the series is tied 2-2

Phoenix was tied with the Pelicans 2-2 in the 1st round.

It's not over.
You're right, it's not over and I fully expect us to win this series. But up until about 10 weeks ago, I fully expected us to win a championship this year. We still have a chance but I'd put a handful of teams with us or above us right now and that's disappointing.

Eh… as happy as I woulda been with. Win today, I really have come to the place that sports are really just entertainment and don’t have anything to do with my life.

So, if we’re gonna watch games, having HIGH STAKES games like a swing Game 5 is something exciting to look forward to!

The funny thing is if the Suns were playing over their heads this series would be so much easier to watch. The fact that we had the best record in the NBA the year after reaching the finals setup expectations as high as humanly possible.

As some of you could, I noticed with about 12 games left in the season the Suns suddenly looked bad. First time was the Atlanta game, but after that, even when they won it was a struggle. I think they peaked over a month ago.

I’ve done that multiple times… including last year and even THIS SEASON with the cardinals at one point!

And yet… I’m apparently always negative about our teams according to some on this board.

Lol… that one was hilarious too.

I’m somehow both the leader of the Darksider and Company Man!
I think it comes with giving your honest opinion and admitting when you're wrong. Most of us have a difficult time balancing that.

So odd some people would need others to admit being "wrong"... After all, how can you be wrong when we're all sharing opinions of what we think is happening or will happen? LOL. Strange but true. Maybe when something happens, its just lucky. Not right or wrong.

I digress. Lol.

WTF are you talking about? I never said I need people to admit they are "wrong". I'm saying I have seen him sharing his "opinion" and then being able to admit when he was wrong. And I have seen him boast when he is "right". Yes, it is his "opinion", but at least he owns it unlike many on this board.

That wasn't directed at you. Just a generalized thought I've pondered.

I haven't expected the Suns to win a championship since 1994.
