I thought it looked like a really tough shot. Well defended.

BTW, Philly and Orlando both lost today. We're going to need a little help on May 16.

Tom and Tom are saying that there have only been 3 buzzer-beater winning shots for the suns in the last 15 years.

This is the fourth of this season.

We've seen a lot of good or mediocre teams that win big and lose close games. This is the first time I can remember a bad team that loses big but wins close games.

What was the year we kept losing on buzzer beaters? Was that the Dragic/Bled/IT year?

These W's are fun, but man their costly.

Off topic: I'm watching a mid-major conf championship game on ESPNU, its kind of background noise to me. The play by play guy is so bad. Some of the stuff he says just makes no sense like the team that is up two playing defense he claims they should consider fouling so they get the last shot...

Long story short....The commentator is none other then "former NBA general manager Lance Blanks!" Thats how they introduce him too....haha. Don't know how long he's been doing this but he's pretty terrible.
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

Books reaction is just cold blooded too.

Can't believe Dirk can still play like this at his age.
What was up with Bledsoe tonight? He just kept coming down and jacking up shots all night and missing most.

This team is so much better and so much more fun to watch since the all-star break. It's like (K)night and day!

The buzzer beater was awesome. Booker is great and he's the future of the franchise.

But these wins are bad and we need to stop getting Ws. Start Dudley at PG and play Knight 47 minutes if that's what it takes.
