I certainly hope you don't speak for Suns nation. You are insufferable.

Almost as insufferable as all the posters whining on this thread about the refs.


It is crazy that all of fans of butt teams (Magic fan here, we have sucked for 10 years) wanted to watch some good basketball, not an escape room puzzle of how the refs are going to impact the game more than the players with inconsistent calls, calling goaltends on obvious blocks, giving star players 9 fouls, and falling for the flopping and foulbaiting. And I am not suggesting that all of the bad calls are going in favor of the Suns, it is just the most egregious have been in their favor the last two games.

I think you're the biased one my friend.

Refs are a cheap copout is all. Like I said, refs have been horrible and favoring the home team this entire series. You can diagree but it's been clear as water. The only difference is that it only gets called out when the Suns have the lead which is pretty pathetic.

Milwaukee does a much better job of making possessions matter. Phx plays way too reckless.

What I fear is more idiots like this shows up in NBA games so they get camera time. ABC is attempting to make him famous (I think JVG said that).

Or letting star players inbound the ball with one foot on the court, truck drive defenders on his way to the basket and literally maul the oppossing team on defense. Crazy how bad these refs have been for BOTH teams.

Giannis is seriously exhausted. Serious question: is it possible he was exposed?

He averaged over 15ppg for 4 straight seasons and was a starting PG on a team that made it to the conference finals. He was good at some point.

Phx gave the Bucks confidence in those 6 minutes and the Bucks are on fire.

Imagine the Bucks win this game and then Giannis can't play the rest of the series for Covid protocol. That would be a tragedy.

I've been wondering the same. I love WOJ for breaking news, not for analysis. He's not horrible or anything, but there's better people out there for that job.

Agree in application, he's not terrible, but also in principle it just seems to trespass an invisible / unspoken boundary - the guy who's supposed to be impartial as part of his day job (lol I know, he's been biased against those he hates for years in his articles) and now he's into the realm of commentating where the nature of the job is different and at times contradictory from journalism. Like you have to be rounding the edges in commentary whereas in journalism it's to get at the truth of the matter regardless of how ugly it may be.

The Bucks are shooting nearly 60% nearly 2.5 quarters into the game.

Crazy.
