    I think that's probably the biggest different maker in winning and losing games. Even when we don't hit our threes, or our shots don't go in, as long as we can hit the majority of our free throws, we always have a shot at winning. I think the loss at GSW could have been reversed had we hit our FT% average.

    Good post about the game in the midst of a whole lot of whining about nothing. Repped.

    You'd think they'd be pretty good. We should be able to beat the Kings. Then even if we lose to the Clippers and fall to 39-19, the next game is at home against Detroit.

    Nice try suns fan

    Morris stepped in first

    or you could argue they both stepped in at the same time, which is a jump ball at centre court, and the FT doesn't count. I'd be backing Dwight to win that jump, and the Rockets to win the game.

    So the Suns lost to the Rockets on a night where they celebrated a dunk in a game they lost to the Rockets in a playoff series they eventually lost.

    BAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHA!
    How sweet it is.

    LOL I am not a Suns fan. Just posted the image from twitter; wasn't try to make an argument. Just thought people who missed it would want to look at it. I wish I had a tv like that lol

    Post the video which clearly shows 2 suns players also stepped into the lane (Morris who did it before Dwight).

    Like I said, if they call it on Dwight then they have to call the other 2 and it cancels out.

    The Suns fans are just riled up because Jon Barry is a ****ing tool. Why didn't he admit he was wrong about the Dwight Howard block not being a goal tend?

    I must give McHale credit for ANOTHER well drawn up set in crunch time. We haven't seen enough Howard/Harden PnR and it was a great time to use it instead of the usual Harden 1 top iso.

    Morris steps in first and Howard steps in and boxes him out. If they call it on Dwight then they have to call it on Morris otherwise he gets an unfair advantage boxing out Dwight if he doesn't step in as well.

    Lin fans want to act like the refs won the game and not the Rockets (with Lin playing poorly).

    Exactly right. I heard Clyde say that about a month ago. He said, don't make any changes, let them grow. Give the guys some peace of mind and they will perform.

    If it's not broken so don't fix it.

    That's great. I am just glad we won; don't care how we did it. Not a suns fan so no crying or arguing from me

    It was so clear on replay that when the Suns player chasing Parsons fell, his shoulder hit Parsons's right foot, so it in turn hit his left foot and causing Parsons to fall down.

    Could the refs call it a foul? I don't think it's hate.
