Suns stupidity loses them the game..

How do you commit a charge with 12 sec left and your team being up 3. How can you commit a 24 sec violation in the last minute leading by 3. How can you set up a play during a timeout to win the game and go to Barbosa and Diaw respectively.

Are you trying to say they didnt deserve to win? :D

All right, as goofy as this game has been, I want to see Shaq for 3, it go in, he's fouled, he drills the FT, games over.

This is the PLAYOFFS and we led this game for 95% of it. Spouting off about how they don't deserve to win is ridiculous. Sure, they made some mistakes, but both teams deserve to win the game.

Unlucky. Just unlucky. But this makes me feel better for the series. We can play with the Spurs and might see a nice series.

If they lose this series D'toni has to go, 4 straight years of mental breakdowns...

what else is new

Duncan with that 3 to tie the game, 99 times out of 100 he'll miss it, but the one time that it matters he makes it. The Suns cannot beat luck.

All those stops by O'neal.. Wasted by the fabulous offensive plays by D'Antoni.. Oh well..

Game 1 goes to the refs for calling all of the fouls against Amare, Shaq & Diaw, which forced us to not be able to play any defense in the post for the entire 2nd half of basketball. Tim Duncan ending the game with only 3 fouls in a Double OT when he played 51 minutes is ridiculous.

Duncan deserves to hit that shot.

Coaching was a big difference... again!

Why the hell we did not foul both at the end of regulation and OT up by 3???????

See what Pop did by not calling a timeout? Not let Shaq in the game. That is coaching.

How can anyone POSSIBLY feel good about this game?

Typical Suns. Blowing big leads, giving up game tying shots, playing terrible defense to end the game, etc.
