I'm not looking to rain on anybody's parade here. That's just not my style. But the Knicks did get more than a few very fortunate calls that enabled them to win the game. It wasn't even just foul calls that were questionable. What about 2 Knicks bumping into each other and knocking the ball out of bounds but they call it Knicks ball? But hey, it was an entertaining game.

Um. :) Sure you're not.

This happens to us all the time. What about last Suns game when Nate made Nash dribble the ball out of bounds and they called it out on Nate. That was a crucial turnover at a crucial point in the game. What about Nates 3 or 4 phantom fouls against Orlando? Why does no one bring this stuff up when it goes against us, but when we finally get some calls in our favor it is so worthy of mentioning.

yea I thought about that, but watch closely, marion was all over the back of lee, so instead of calling the foul and putting marion in foul trouble, he just awarded the ball to the knicks... Hey the suns shot 44 threes and made 12 , that is roughly 27%, that is horrible, and they were lucky to still be in the game..

...the other memorable call the PHX complained about (david lee tip in) was clearly a foul if you watch the replays.

I think the discrepancy in calls had as much to do with our style of play as it did the fans raucus nature. The reason they call it a home job is the refs can be influenced by the fans. If we didn't boo our own players and actually cheered we might have a few more nights like this.

I thought it was sad that Curry said last night was the first time he felt the crowd was really behind the team.
I just hope that people will like me

that was crystal clear, I usually rip the refs, but they were all over that one, good call... David lee was taller than the biggest guy pheonix had on the floor, it is tough to defend when you are that small all over..

It's terrible that the game was decided by bad calls! The Knicks should appeal to the NBA to have the victory awarded to the Suns.

That was a foul. Ths Suns player got Lee's arm. But the foul on Nash for defending Marbury right before that was a bad call. I think the frustration that they showed for the foul on Lee was a culmination of 2 bad calls prior to that one.

That's such a load of BS. The crowd has been behind the team in every game until they start playing like crap in which case the people who pay their huge salaries become frustrated and start venting. How about they do something to earn the crowd's appreciation instead of complaining that fans don't respect lousy play and effort. And why doesn't Curry start acting like a professional and get in shape so he can avoid these nagging injuries and start to realize some of this potential that we've heard so much of. Too bad he can't have that scrub guard him every game. KT shut him down for most of the game, were the fans supposed to cheer him for that?

If that's a foul then every PG in the league would foul out in the first 5 minutes of every game.
