I said yes but, there was some major coaching mistakes that cost the suns that game.
To be specific why didn't D'antoni foul in regulation when they were up 3 with 20 seconds left and spurs had possesion. It just doesn't make sense. If they had fouled they would have gotten possesion of the ball back after the spurs made their foul shots. An offensive team should alway try to have the ball in their hands in the final seconds. Who do the suns think they are the spurs they shouldn't have relied on getting a stop especially against the spurs who have deadly 3pt shooters.
The same situation occured in the final seconds of the 1st overtime and if the suns had fouled instead of trying to defend the 3 they could have one the game there.
