as for this game, this was an easy one, officiating was ridiculous so all of the sudden having a rule to make sure there will be a 7th game comes really handy. Just in case, read this at http://myespn.go.com/nba/truehoop
So we have a terrible officiating and then some rule to compensate this and... bingo! everybody (at NBA headquarters) happy, another game is secured.
btw, we're talking the same league that ejected Duncan for... laughing at the bench. Money talks.

I think you must not be following the series closely, cause your logic holds no weight. If you really felt the league wanted to see a game 7 then there would be no suspensions helping the suns hold home court in game 5 and most likely seeing a game 7 back in Phoenix. As it stands now, San Antonio will most likely win the next 2 ending the series in 6. I'll be at the game tomorrow night and sure I'm rooting hard for the Suns, but losing Diaw and Amare makes a win highly unlikely.
