That was awful. I agree the "tackle" was incidental contact if it didn't happen against a shooting player, and 5 years ago that isn't a foul. But he came into TJ's space, and even slid his foot under TJ's landing space. I don't know how TJ didn't sprain his ankle on that.

This will come off as unreasonable Suns fan take, but there were a lot of ridiculous calls and no calls against the Suns in that game yesterday. I thought Booker was justified in his displeasure with the refs. It was just dumb, but also what we come to expect from the NBA as Suns fans.

Was that the one that would have cut the lead to 4?

Throw in the white towel and walk off the court. Someone is going to get ejected or hurt in this cluster****
RUBIO! In our most important 7 game stretch... with a healthy roster we should win every game, so I was hoping for a 6-1 stretch. Now, let's hope to break even?
That's impossible, considering it's a 7 game stretch. :P

They sucked to start the game and were completely outclassed in the first just like the previous game. I won’t give them kudos for coming back. The lakers just coasted after they had a massive lead and let the Suns climb back in just enough to get excited before crushing their spirit in the end.

I don’t know if they were just outclassed or hung over. It doesn’t matter to me. The result was the same.

Obviously there's a tie in there. ;)

But I give Jeremy a 9.2/10 for that.

I think it would have cut it to 3.5
