Exhibitions of Excellence: LeBron James and Goran Dragic Take Center Stage

LeBron James and Goran Dragic both had incredible performances last night. Instead of blaming the Celtics and Spurs the focus should only be on how the great performances by both players rendered the defenses useless.

The Phoenix crowd is wired differently from a typical NBA crowd: more urgency, more unbridled excitement, more vitriol for the refs, more hatred for their opponents, more everything. It's like a college atmosphere, only angry and more desperate. Everyone wears orange, everyone screams, everyone seems hopelessly tied to the ebb and flow of the game. When the wrong call or break goes against them, 40 years of torture quickly bubble to the surface and every defense mechanism kicks in. It's tangible. You can feel it. They totally believe in this team ... only they totally don't. If that makes sense.

Bill Simmons nails it right on the head in his most recent piece on the Suns.
