    Jermaine O'Neal snatching a lotto pick from the clutches of mediocrity. MVP for Suns.

    Wow. I don't think it was even going in after the bounce. The collective hate for Lakers is league wide.

    Wow.

    Win off a goal tend at the buzzer?

    They NEVER call that... not that I'm complaining. Still, if I was a Suns fan I would be pretty miffed.

    I'm stunned that they called it at all...

    Not our best game, but it's a Win and we're 1 game closer to the play offs. Let us never speak of this game again... :grin:

    How about those clutch FTs by Lin. All that pressure to make them to tie up the game.

    We kinda suck every time we play Suns.
    The game shouldn't have come down to the last shot.

    But a win is a win. Hello? Playoff!!

    Oh and Jeremy is clutch and Harden got lucky with that buzzer beater. LOL.

    Didn't Marcin Goratat say that he'd pay the Suns part of his salary so that they keep O'neal?

    The Suns said, let us help. The refs agreed. Here comes the win. Ugly but no one here should complain. A win is a win and that's always the principle.

    Agreed he is looking good. Don't know who is the long term solution at PF but it looks like he is going to play smarter than Donatas and TRob for the time being.

    Probably. It's an idiotic move by Jermaine O'Neal. One of the first things they teach you in high school ball is to not touch the rim at all on a game winning shot.

    Wow, what an ugly and sloppy game. Harden with 9 TOs… just way too many. But a win is a win.

    Lin with the huge free throws at the end to tie it up and give Houston a chance for the winning shot. It could have easily been into OT. Thank you Jermaine.

    Scola with the awesome post-up game. I really miss him in a Rockets uniform. Houston could really use some of that low post presense, even if off the bench.

    He can go wash his tears in some Slovenian TV with his 32" Dynex. Does anyone have the Dynex pic by any chance? :p
