Post of the night. You had me rolling.

You should have seen those Herve Villachez impersonators go running when they said, "Let's go get another tattoo."

Another stressful fourth quarter. I think I like come from behind victories better than having a big lead and watching the other team come from behind and almost win it victories.

I'm still in the lockerroom. Just checking in one last time. I'll be watching starting in about an hour and a half. Have a good game. See you on the other side.

You getting your shins iced?!

I am now after the game. Feel pretty good though. Good game.

That was ridiculous. Worst home court advantage of the season. It was seriously louder for them than us. Luckily the Suns kept them quiet for the majority of the night.

They just can't stand prosperity is all. They need a close game to play their best.

14 for the game. Nice.

As a variation on Steph Curry's recent remark, the trick is not to get bored with a "comfortable" lead.

INFORMER wrote:That was a huge defensive play by Len on that Bulls possession out of the timeout. Totally blew that play up (I thought it was stupid for the Bulls to go for 2).

Yep, mad props for him being in the right place defensively and going straight up with his length.

You're dating yourself, Cap.

(Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

I really hate our home crowd. We basically have zero home court advantage. Nobody goes to the games, and half the people who do show up are cheering for the other team. Groan. Glad we got the win, though.

Lots of people on here keep complaining about the home crowd. If you aren't willing to put your money where your mouth is, stop complaining. Unlike nearly every single aspect of Suns basketball, this is one you can actually change.

If the Suns had better support there wouldn't be so many tickets for Bulls, Lakers, Heat, etc. fans to snap up.

But it's always been that way to an extent. When we went to the Suns games at the Coliseum in the 80's it was Lakers, 76ers and Celtics fans we had to deal with.

I understand your sentiment, but I live in the Bay Area in CA, so I can't reasonably attend Suns home games. When I lived in Tucson I drove up for a few Suns games a year, and I made noise when I was there.

Buy some tickets and donate them to suns fans.

Couple of issues here: Metro Phoenix still has many transplants from other areas. They come to games and cheer for their original home team. Also, since the weather is good (even the cool, rainy weather today is a far cry from what they get back east and in the northern Midwest) we get many snowbirds who show up and root for the team from back home.

Another issue: the shitty management by Team Blabby drove many fans away. They'll need several good seasons to get rebuild the base.

Still, all-in-all, it grinds me when some frontrunning LA or Chi-town fan cheers against the Suns at our home games.

On a more positive note, the Suns took advantage of the opportunity to beat a good team. Bulls may have been tired, but they have a number of hard-nosed players who don't quit easily.

I like the way the Suns hit the boards in the final minutes.
