    Anyone who's watching the press conference, notice Kobe. He's a lot more humble than people think.

    5 is probably what is going to happen. Either the Suns are pissed at the refereeing and how they are playing and come out more motivated than ever or the more probable feeling they have is dissapointment and sadness and just wanted to finish the season and have Amare's return to look forward to, hopefully.

    That's probably cuz he thinks the Suns will still attack hard. That is the mentality of an idiot. LAL has just beat a #2 team three in a row and he thinks it's not over.

    Well, I can always look on the bright side. Hopefully if Amare come back next year will be great... We still might not lose but even if we do Boris Diaw has gotten some much needed playoff experience. I read an article about him and he came out more physical today and has learned a lot. Barbosa, James Jones and the rest also.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Rok @ Apr 30 2006, 04:16 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Or it's time to change the run and gun style because I think this is just proof that style does not get it done in playoffs.</div>That's not true at all. It does work but Kurt Thomas was injured and he was a huge part of our defense. With him this series would have been 2-2 or 3-1. His defense was great this year and our team suffered since he was gone all that time. Next year we should have a bigger line-up and a better team. This style beat some good teams last year but we just didn't have that inside prescense we needed this year.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Sham @ Apr 30 2006, 04:13 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>That's probably cuz he thinks the Suns will still attack hard.

    Rok, they were running with Kurt too. You don't need all 5 going crazy to have a run and gun offense. He was there for defense and we had a pretty decent defense with him there and he was running okay too...

    Amazing finish by the Lakers. I tip my hat off to Kobe, Smush, and Luke.

    Amare is a big piece though. With him and Kurt one the floor together we can run that offense and win, but if he doesen't come back close to before they are in trouble and probably should look to change some things.oh and rok, bcb hates Nash more now....

But like you said he was in there for defense and rebounding. Things you need to do more, and occasionally go for the fastbreaks and threes. You guys rely on those too much to win a ring.

But I think he's a douchebag personally.

    there was no 4 on 5. It was good fast breaks, they did slow it down a bit but were still the fastest team in the league. I think that's good, but I'm praying for Amare to come back because they need him. they were building this team around the big 3 and they needed Amare for his inside offense but to also help our rebounding by putting another big man out there which he would have done. Next year could either be a championship year or the beggining of a nightmare...

Congrats. :closedeyes: But don't turn into John Madden and say the most obvious things.Madden: the Suns need to win the next 3 games if they want any chance of moving on to the next round.

    It can be done but no-one expected us to get this far. I thought we'd lose in 6
