i guess the refs took the night off

So what was your excuse in Game 2 & 3 when the Suns were never in Foul Trouble???

Why is it Suns fans always have to cry & act like 2 year olds????

"They always think that's going to bother me but I had my shots," he said. "It didn't bother me at all, I just missed my shots."  And I don't care what you say about the refs. You will not win a game shooting 39% from the field. Use your head E-weener. Spurs gave the game away. Spurs in 5.

A Pacers fans actually posted this so don't lump Suns fans in with it.

I don't hear many (if any) Suns fans blaming the officiating for how this series has gone. Not local radio- nothing. I think it has been very well officiated and have said it since game 1. Suns fans griped about officiating last season with good reason - a ref in prison admitting he bet on the game is good reason to complain about officiating.

Suns lost and have deserved to lose the way they have played. Period.

Flat-out impossible for refs to cause a blowout, unless it's REALLY obvious.  As I've heard over and over, the better team can overcome differences in officiating by adjusting play.  The Spurs are normally the masters of adjusting their game - 80 points in a defensive contest one  night, 120 in a scoring fest the next.  It's how they play.

The Suns have one major game - outscore their opponents.  They also outplayed San Antonio in almost every other way.  They used weapons they should've been using this whole series.  Bench the man who's not producing, and put someone in who can.  Give the ball to the man who's hot, who's driven, or who cares enough to fight to the end.

Raja Bell and Boris Diaw get full credit for keeping the series alive.  The Suns outplayed the Spurs in this game.

The question is, can they do it 3 more times?  Doubtful, but it'd be awesome if they did.
