Thoughts on Suns-Spurs
April 30, 2008
I literally JUST finished watching the Suns blow 5 opportunities down the stretch to knock themselves out of the NBA playoffs. I have to say, out of all 5 games in this series the Spurs only WON one… the Suns GAVE them the other 4… this one included. I am looking forward to the inevitable Hornets sweep of the Sterns next series… here are some other thoughts:
It is clear to me now why I am not an NBA fan… fouls. The whole NBA game revolves around the foul. The Spurs are masters at flopping to get fouls, acting surprised when they get called for fouls, using fouls to kill a drive, and playing for the foul shot… that is why they are so successful in the NBA.
San Antonio Sterns fans are the most annoying people on earth. They actually cheer when the Hack-a-Shaq comes into play… in the 1st quarter. Any person who has any kind of respect for what little respect is left of American basketball would be disgusted at this tactic.
Steve Nash really crapped the bed tonight. I am not sure what the exact stats are, but I am pretty sure they look something like 0-37 FG, 0-0 FT, 568 turnovers.
I get scared at how angry I get watching these things called sports. What a bad day for me, first Barca get knocked out during lunch and Suns give it away for dinner.
I can see it now. I will be forced to choose between the Lakers and Spurs for the Western Conference Finals. Actually it is an easy choice, I won’t watch.
Finally, here I am again, a year later swearing to boycott the NBA and feeling like I am in cardiac arrest. Part of me wishes the Suns would just go into “rebuilding mode” so I can ignore the league altogether.

Ginobili is the best player in the league. Him and Duncan own the Suns. I guarantee that me and four friends could win against the Spurs if hacks and flops were banned. And Skinner’s pubic beard makes me want to poke my eyes out…
…glad I got that off my chest
First, I may be trying to point fingers somewhere other than the suns, but tell me if your a ref. can you make that call with 24 seconds left in the game? besides the suns crapping at the line, they were still in the game with 24 left on the clock and the ref makes that call and once again stern gets his spurs into the second round. this is crap!!
guard, unfortunatly i can’t pick up sarcasm, so i will clarify. if you believe that ginoboli is the best player in the nba, then i can’t have lunch with you anymore. and thank you for the skinner chin pubes comment, i laughed out loud.
Manu is the best because I hate him the most. He looks like the guy who still lives at home with his parents at 34 years old… but he can not be stopped. I could beat him and Duncan in a game of 2-on-2, but only if my teammate was Tonya Harding.
ha! i would pay lots of money to see that… personally, I think Manu looks like Paul Meany, the lead singer of Mute Math, google it
