Comments on: Suns Game of the Decade http://blog.suns.com/2009/12/4041/ Phoenix Suns Blog - Blogs from the Phoenix Suns Organization Thu, 09 Feb 2012 02:40:26 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Allen http://blog.suns.com/2009/12/4041/comment-page-1/#comment-1208 Allen Thu, 07 Jan 2010 18:06:37 +0000 http://blogs.suns.com/?p=4041#comment-1208 My vote goes to the game against the Nets. I think that game had the highest point totals (separately & combined) the NBA had seen in many years. It had the 3 reasons why the Suns were so popular to watch: offense, offense, and more offense. I agree that Game 4 against the Spurs in 2007 should have made it on the list, and that one would get my 2nd place vote. My vote goes to the game against the Nets.

What i Want to know is when manu ginobili was driving why didnt they let him score instead of Manu kicking it out into Tim Duncan for the 3 and forcing it into overtime Im just saying that that game should at least be up there What i want to know is why isnt the 2008 1st round of game one against the San Antonio Spurs isnt up there With Tim Duncan hitting the 3 pointer to send it into overtime.

Even w/suspensions the following game we almost came back and won it. Tough to watch though, so I understand. One other game I would add would be the April 27, 2003 Game 4 at AWA against the Spurs (the same series as mentioned above). I was actually at that game and the atmosphere was incredible, with the Suns winning by a Jake Voskuhl tip-in. Yet another game won by an unsung hero. I have to say unquestionably the 2006 playoffs were by far the most entertaining (and heartwrenching) games I've ever been privileged to watch as a Suns fan. I remember I was at a bar just packed with Suns fans, and the place went crazy when Tim Thomas pump faked, side stepped, and made that 3. Amazing game. It got my vote.

I think a large part of why I left that Spurs game off is because to relive it forces me to relive the pain that took place shortly afterwards. Thanks for the response.

This is the only game on this list that clearly stood out in my mind. I believe that was the year Dirk robbed Steve of his 3rd MVP. STAT tore apart the Mavs' front line all game long, and then Stevie Nash asserted his will at the end of that game, going shot-for-shot with Dirk and Terry, with the Mavs ultimately blinking. And quite fittingly, it was Steve there under the basket to pull in the game-closing rebound. This is one of the greatest games of any sport that I have ever witnessed.

Although the subsequent suspensions and ultimate loss to the Black and white rulebook, uh... I mean San Antonio Spurs (Freudian slip), may detract from the importance of the game. You must admit it marked the first time that Phoenix beat San Antonio at its own game, on the defensive end. If you don't believe me, watch the game again, I have.
