We are the biggest chokers ever - Season over

We made the WCF in the first 2 years of the Nash era (even with 3 key rotation players injured in the 2nd year), and lost a tight 2nd round series against A Spurs team that pistol whiped every single utha team they went up against in the third year.

So ya, first round exit loss in 5 games is basically a disaster

But the first round loss was against the defending champs. I'm not that embarrassed about it.

It was funny because the moment Shaq sat down the Suns started ballin, the moment he came back they started sucking

How upsetting...I am still at a loss for words.

Nash...

*sigh*

I couldn't even sleep...lol. I kept replaying the last few mins of the 4th quarter...replaying game 1...game 2....game 3.

:noway:

Oh...and Shaq....smh...don't get me started. He gets paid to play ball...and he can't even shoot a free throw to save his life. He's too busy being winded and wiping the rivers of sweat off his forehead.

Stoudemire...needs to get off his lazy ass...and play some mother****** defense. He just stands there...he wants the ball handed to him each time.

Diaw...keeps trying to lay it up...I mean if he'd make it each time then ok...but when you notice that...that **** doesn't go in...then HELLOOOOOO.

Barbosa...no frikkin' comment.

Nash...smh...wouldn't expect you to choke. I couldn't believe all those turnovers...just...wow.

I love the team...but can admit when we suck...and we did for the playoffs.

and...D' Antoni... lol @ not pulling Shaq out when he is being targeted up the ass...just to keep us from scoring...instead he leaves him in and says that he's going to have to pull it together. If Shaq...who has been playing ball for 100 years...can't shoot a decent free throw...then he will NOT all the sudden do it.

*end rant*

They gave their 110% on Game 5, really.

Game 3 of course is another story...and also the series. Down 0-3 is embarrassing. Shaq really didn't make us better and it showed. Like I said when the trade happened, the trade just made us different...

im annoyed, but woopdedoo da! go you freakin suns! suns fan and proud of it, win lose or draw

nash might have turned it over which sucks, but the guy has done so many unbelievable things that you cant crucify him for it

SDU, you are a real fan in my book, buddy. :clap:

All this proves is just how hard it is to put together a team that can win a damn championship. I would have thought for sure that either the Suns or the Mavs would have broken through by now, but that last step is the hardest one to take.

I don't know what's going to happen to either of these teams next year. Frankly, I think we lost more ground this year than you did. The trades didn't work out for either of us, that's for sure.

Good luck next year.
