No, it was not. That's why that ending was so euphoric.

Yeah, that was ridiculous. It was almost like he warped time. He was so far out of position but some how recovered all that distance. He just turned and lept and somehow got to the shot.

Crazy that our PG rotation is two guys on minimum deals, our PF rotation is two 20 year-olds and our record is what it is.

Booker and Warren are really good. And when Booker was injuried, Canaan and Daniels step up.

Had to watch the end again. Hawks up 8 with 1:37 left. A Chriss 3, steal by Booker, Booker 3, offensive foul drawn by Caanan on Schroder, then gift from the ref on that Booker 3 where he calmly hits all 3 FTs. 3 missed FTs down the stretch by ATL.
Go Suns!

I saw an interesting stat that over the past 20 years Atlanta WAS 400-0(!) when leading by 10+ with 3 minutes remaining. That is, until this game.
That is definitely a feather to put in the Suns cap.

That foul wasn't a gift from the ref. Booker was hit in the head prior to the shot going up.

Imagine what it must have been like from the perspective of a long-time Hawks fan who actually watched those 400 games.

I did my usual practice of streaming the opponent's commentators cuz I wanted to hear what Nique would say about Booker. they were very complimentary of both Book n TJ, funny enough they "were freaking out" more than the Suns announcers when Chriss made the block smh lol.
watching it over a couple times today only thing better would have been Kevin Harlan on the call :lol:

Yep. Also that was a great foul by Tyson on Miles Plumlee. He knew he's a terrible FT shooter.

Watched the last 6 minutes again last night. Recorded the Atlanta broadcast. Loved it when the lead play by play guy said heading into one of the late commercial breaks something about the Hawks on their way to a win. They were flabbergasted when the Suns came back and won.

They went on and on early in the game about how the Suns don't value the ball. I mean, they're right and the Suns had quite a few turnovers but so did the Hawks.

Thought this was funny. Hawks social media blocked quese on Twitter after Plumlee's block, but Chriss got the last word.

For those of you that don't mind shaky recording, but want to see last night's game through the eyes of a young Suns fan. This absolutely brought back memories of my childhood rocking a KJ jersey at AWA.
