Fuck me, they did it. Go get 'em #rallythevalley

I like being wrong. Also, fuck Beverley and that hockey goon shit.

I got chills listening to Al McCoy say "For the third time in my career, the Suns are going to the NBA Finals."

Pull it off as in they won when it looked like they were struggling! Anyways it's not the time to worry about words, our team is in the Finals!!!!! We need a parade downtown and I have a feeling we will be getting one soon.

I hope the Suns can finally get that title. Not just for the fans, or the City of Phoenix, but especially for Al McCoy. Would love for him to be able to make that call and say the Suns are "NBA Champions!"

Al McCoy sticking with this team and being their play by play announcer shows true loyalty and he deserves to see and call the Phoenix Suns winning it all.

Fingers crossed!

Agreed, best announcer in the NBA and it's not even close. I'll also say for D-Book, yes he's young but he stuck by this city when many would have left, he built a team where he was drafted instead of running to join a super team, and he calls Phoenix HIS city. I loved that in his post game comments last night.

Heyyy!! I saw it!! It’s on the news. I went on my Facebook and I went into it. They just came back to Phoenix last night. Lots of fans who just showed up! They have a celebration.

N830MH · #**168** Posted **Jul 2, 2021, 5:11 AM**

I heard what happened last night. I watch the game. I saw Patrick Beverley. He was ejected from the game for pushing Chris Paul. That’s very inappropriate!

• Video Link

He have leave Chris Paul alone! Stay away from him.

Was anybody else here at the parade in ‘93 after they lost? 300,000 people. It was crazy. The Suns are Phoenix’s original and most cherished team. Here’s hoping they can pull it off.

Yes, that is correct. They lost to Chicago Bulls. They didn’t play so well. Hope they win the game. We’ll see what happens.

I was here. It was the first time I had felt that Phoenix was more than a suburban bedroom community. I love that Charles Barkley still feels the love from them. Once the D-Backs won it all, and the Cardinals showed a flash of skill, that memory faded. It's such a great feeling to see the team that used to live at Veterans Memorial Colosseum get to this level again.

That was very interesting story. Thanks for sharing! Now I know! I remember D-Backs won World Series Champions in 2001. I did not watch the game. That was so long time ago. I was in Florida. It was right before we move to Arizona in 2003. We lived in Arizona for almost 18 years now.

My brother and I were inside BOB for the Diamondbacks World Series rally where Mark Grace was clearly shitfaced. That was right after 9/11, 50,000 people packed into the stadium. Security was insane IIRC.

Yes, that is correct. Security is very tight. I realize that. They cannot bring coolers, backpack, strollers, and a few other things.

All,

You might want to see this. Revisiting 1993 Phoenix Suns. That was last NBA Finals in 1993. They lost to Chicago Bulls.

My thoughts on the game. Suns looked good and showed bursts of brilliance.

Khris Middleton is scarier than I anticipated. Credit to Giannis for starting and playing pretty damn well and intense.

Jae Crowder....if the 3s ain't falling....don't take so many shots. CP3 is playing super motivated and wants to hush all critics...I just hope he doesn't run outta gas. Deandre Ayton keeps improving and can help keep Giannis at bay.

Brook Lopez showing he can still be a threat.

This oughta be a good to great series.

Jae has been a hot/cold player, it's about every 3rd game where he goes off but his D was off the charts and he was still +19 despite the 1 point. I'm thinking the Bucks we're looking for Lopez to play more like game 5 of the ECF, where he had 33 rebounds versus the 17 last night. Which is probably why they benched him in the second half.

Buckeye Native 001 · #**180** Posted **Jul 7, 2021, 4:59 PM**

Crowder was throwing bricks but his defense was outstanding. Surprisingly, I think he only ended up with two or three fouls the entire game?

Bucks were killing the Suns with all those threes in the fourth quarter, and Giannis didn't look like he was playing hurt at all.
