Um...Kobe's the best player in the league who also happens to be a drama queen. Don't act as though he doesn't make every hangnail he's ever suffered public knowledge thru the media....so we can all go....
"(gasp) he's playing hurt!...Oh my."
Is it ego or martyr complex.

You guys complaining about calls can shove it, seriously.
I have a news flash for you guys, the only reason Utah is so "good" at home is because they get away with murder on their home court. They go on the road and try to get away with that they do at home, and it gets called on them. The officiating sucks in the NBA, we know that. Things that are a foul yesterday are fine today and vice versa. There are NO teams that get calls every night, you hear me? NONE!
The Lakers got a few in that game, the Jazz got some as well. The Jazz got away with everything at home, and it's not flying on the road, that's the NBA. Is it right? No.. a foul should be a foul wherever its committed, but don't sit here and say that LA gets the benefit of some phantom Bias that only you little cry babies can see. Lakers won the game, it was fair, get over it.

Ease up with the man love for god's sake, you sound like we just insulted your prom date....you don't even know him personally.
Is it your mission to defend Kobe every time someone has an opposing sarcastic opinion?
Your starting to sound like my brother who acts like a sister who also thinks he needs to come to his rescue every time I joke about Kobe at his expense.
Get a grip Donald...its all in fun.

Oh, you were joking? Really? Didn't seem like it. Funny how joking and whining are like interbred Kentucky cousins.
Funny that the most wild foul called (the and one on Lamar's dunk..foul called on Boozer who didn't touch him, much less in the 3 seconds before the whistle) isn't even being whined about. Both my wife and I were saying "holy crap, that was a terrible call."

What a joke. That was some seriously effed up home cooking.
Hater this and whiner that. You folks sound like a broken record of crap. It makes me laugh that it hurts your little feelings that Suns fans kick dirt on your gang of "almosts" and their Drama Princess Kobe on a Suns board. No two ways about it here, you are a blind homer if you think that game was called fair and square. But rave on, it's pretty amusing.

Regurgitated from kingfan circa 2000-2004. Wow..way to throw your lot in with the bitter little cowtown capitol cowbell ringers that reside in Arco Arena.
Oh jeez...irony of irony. "Gang of almosts???" If you look that up in the ol' dictionary there is a Suns logo front and center. Almost beat the celtics. Almost beat the bulls. Almost lost to the craptastic lakers featuring Smush Parker and Kwame Brown in the first round. Almost beat the spurs if not for Stern. Almost beat the Spurs if not for TD's three pointer. Almost beat the Spurs if not for 'Antoni's coaching. Almost...almost...almost. Gang of almosts??? You've got a freaking army of almosts.
Ok Mike Bibby, preach on. Preach on!! Oh, "stern better not come to phoenix...blah blah blah" You and your "it's a conspiracy" ilk are a broken record. Maybe a new coach who doesn't pound his fists and wail like his first born child was just sacrificed after every call, good or bad, can elevate your franchise to a level where they aren't perceived as whiners..because make no mistake, they were seen that way under the "leadership" of Mike 'Antoni.
Ohh, you got us. Our princess Kobe and blather blather blah. Do you have an original thought on the matter? Fair and square? Utah with their league leading fouls per game and FTs given didn't get a fair shake? With Boozer and Okur getting off scot free with pushes in the back, so the one time it ISN'T called on a Laker is now a travesty of justice?? Oh, how priceless. I think your castle built on run and gun three pointers that was given up mid-term for the lumbering, free-throw specialist Shaq joining the crew must be the best princess castle in the land. With owners and coaches infighting, and players "adjusting" to new offensive schemes and thinking of defense as a quaint little "something" that doesn't need to be played since we "won 58 games, so that's good defense" type of mantra...well, that "castle" is built on a pile of manure fertilized with arrogance and broken dreams.
The rapid transistion of some Suns fans into Kings fans is pretty amusing, I agree. It is like $arver is channeling all the Maloof whining and hatred without the billion dollar casinos and plentiful ***** bounty. Amusing indeed.
Cheesewater, you are no Cheesebeef. At least the real cheese knew that the Suns couldn't hang in the wild wild West. Maybe you will recover...maybe you won't. I think you will, but the West is stronger and tougher this year and next, and next, and next.
But as long as there is a call to be missed, and there will be many, there you'lll be...decrying the NBA for its "fix against Phoenix" and why THAT is the reason that once again, your guys will fail to raise a Larry O'Brien.
There's ALWAYS an excuse...right? The Lakers..the Spurs...the refs, Chris Paul owning you, the refs, Memphis, the refs, Stern, the refs, stern's refs, and the refs. How many tin-foil conspiracies can you concoct?

Wanna talk about a BS call, talk about the ejection of Turiaf in Utah in Game 4. I seem to recall Shaq threw his body into a GS player (SJackson) and it was applauded as a "message that needed to be sent".
If that same play (Turiaf foul) happens in LA it'd just be called a foul-- 2 shots. Turiaf gets ejected simply because its in Utah.........no other reason. Theres been harder fouls witnessed in Cavs vs Wizards and Cavs vs Celtics.

Seriously. If it had been a Suns player, the NBA office would still be burning from the mail and phone calls.
Very good point.
The Cavs wizards series, though, wasn't nearly as "rough" as the media said either. The "flagrants" on LeBron were hard fouls but exaggerated...still more than what Ronny did tho.

Absolutely right on all accounts. Great post sir, great post!

what does Shaq or GS have to do with this game. I also remember McHale taking down Rambis when I was a kid...so what?
Turiaf's ejection was valid. The guy hit the floor with his head for god's sakes. The guy was in mid air when Turiaf used his right arm on his chest before he even attempted at the ball with his left hand...those are terms for an ejection...taking his feet from under him.
I don't understand how you can rationalize his ejection when the guy broke open his freaking head and needed stitches..."Turiaf gets ejected simply because its in Utah"....my arse!!!!!!
Uhm, no. Ronny went for the ball, not head, and fouled him. Hard. Dude hit the ground hard and bled. The ONLY thing you can argue about is it was after the whistle, but if you try to say it was "too rough," you need to check your underoos at the scorer's table.
80's basketball laughs at the notion.
Dude, you are the worst arguer EVER.
Yeah, let's compare an 80s basketball play to one that happened in the CURRENT NBA around 80 days ago.
Do you understand fundamental logic, Joe?
Hell, Shaq fouled Parker as hard as Ronny did on this one just last round...or is that too far in the past for you to contemplate?

Haha, you Suns fans are whiners! The Lakers didn't benefit from any calls, they won because they were the BETTER TEAM.

This has nothing to do with the Suns.

Ehhhh...wrong...again. Look at the play if you can find it. When Turiaf goes after him, he uses his right forearm while he is in mid air before his hand goes for the ball. Going after a person in mid air and using your forearm on his chest is a sure way of trying to hurt a player or undercutting him. To say otherwise is just absurd. If you think that didn't merit an ejection, you need to leave your collection of Laker g-strings in the locker room cause boy are they riding up on you and impairing your judgment.
80's basketball is agreeing with my judgment and well as Stern...especially Stern.

Hilarious. He can't make an ancient analogy but you can dredge up comparisons to Kings fans? Which, by the way means absolutely nothing to me (and probably no other Suns fans) since your dealings with Kings fans wasn't something I paid attention to. You think you are being sassy by comparing me to a Kings fan but it falls flat.
Suns fans right now are a lot more objective about the Jazz/Lakers series than you are.

That's his point. What does one have to do with the other. Ha ha ha. Talk about comprehension problems...

Just watched the replay.
I agree with Donald on this one. That is a hard foul nothing more. You can give a flagrant one on this one, shouldn't have been thrown out.
