What a shot, Whataburger! Al McCoy must have been going nuts. Man I love this team. The best thing about being a Suns fan right now is knowing that all of the guys are good guys. None of them complain or act arrogant. They just go about their business and play hard almost every night. I have a feeling if we can close out, and Dallas does too, we will be going to the NBA Finals. Then, if Miami can win, we could beat them and win it all. I'm getting ahead of myself here, but these guys just don't want to lose. That shot by Raja, wow, I'm still shaking my head. Marion had a huge game. Barbosa hit a big 3 in 2OT too. I'm so happy right now. YEAH BABY, YEAH!!!
Raja Bell is either underatted offensively, or he was lucky. That was a great game the Clippers let slip away a few times towards the end of the game. Sam Cassell is never going to take his time bringing the ball upcourt again.
Yeah that was a lucky shot and i kind of didn't want it to go in. Dallas will struggle against Suns if they go to the conf. finals.
bell sucks raja bell's shot was luck he just trew it up in the air and it went in all the real skills are on the Clippers side with all the blocks, rebounds Oh and how many blocks did your center have? by the way raja bell flops too much just like Dirk Nowitzki
I dont want no one all over the Rockets next year Nobody goes for Rockets just because they are not good but when Yao and T-Mac dominate I dont know what's gonna happen to dallas and phoenix all of those teams tryng to beat up on the Rockets
Amazing shot by Raja, I still have no idea what Dunleavy was thinking with Daniel Ewing guarding him. Shawn Marion was ridiculous last night, 36/20. Those are Wilt Chamberlain type numbers. I thought James Jones came up with some key plays to put Phoenix over the hump. The one play in particular was when he ran after an offensive rebound, dived in the air, and drew the foul from Shaun Livingston. That was a crucial possession for the Suns. I think this series is going 7 games.
Player's played hard on both sides. This really came down to better coaching by D'antoni and specifically some dumb coaching decisions by Dunleavy. Hello, 8 second violation at the end of a playoff game? Hello, Dan Ewing on the floor? At all? Ever? (In a crucial playoff game).

Give him credit and give Dunleavy a slap in the face for one of the worst coaching decisions in the playoffs.

It was luck !? He just throwed it up ? He didn't shoot it with one hand or from the mid-court. It was a clutch trey, nothing more. And our center ? You mean BORIS DIAW ? Haha look how good double-double a Clipper had ? Or how many assists ? ST*U !
^ thats coming from a kobe fan so he must hate bell haha anyways i dont see how @ all it was lucky he had a cealn look @ it
I can't believe what a hot hand he's got. If I were a Clipper, I would hand-cuff a defender to this guy.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting thedude9990:</div><div class="quote_post">^ thats coming from a kobe fan so he must hate bell haha anyways i dont see how @ all it was lucky he had a cealn look @ it</div>I don't hate any player in the NBA. I like Kobe, but i don't LOVE HIM SO MUUUCHHH (K)(K) or smth. ;D I'm trying to look at players from the same angle, but that shot wasn't luck. It was a good clutch shot, again, i know that I said it already. Peace !!
It was a great shot, and without Raja Bell the Suns wouldn't even be where they are right now. He is the only Suns who has been playing consistent on offense throughout this second round series.
Good shot from Raja but this is old news....too bad I don't get on the forums as often as I should to respond to this stuff
Kenny Smith had it right IMO. You have to deny access to the immediate outside area of the three point line, especially the corner, which is the smallest space to guard, and the closest point to the basket. Apparently the guy who screwed up was not Ewing, but Mobley. With a three point lead and only three seconds left, why not allow them to throw up an ally oop? At any rate, nothing's been decided yet, nothing's been won or lost. I'm hoping that both teams are ready and that the best team wins on Monday.

Unless the Suns can play their brand of ball, and Nash finds a rhythm, then there's absolutely no drama, and we can watch some blowout ball. But I guess that was a bit of a non sequiter, oh well. What big man for the Clips beats this team if Kurt Thomas is available? Brand will get his points, that's who he is, but making those shooters work puts Phoenix in great position to win.
I think the long weekend, so to speak, will benefit the suns. Especially Nash, hopefully he'll be able to re-charge a bit more. Combine that with being at home, I think the suns have a 70/30 chance to win game 7. Either way, I hope it's a good game. It should be.
