lol. . . the game was not fixed. . . Frye's missed dunk happened because he wasn't careful with the shot. . . several players have missed dunks in the past in other games. Again, Arizona missed several easy shots when the game was still in doubt which shows me they weren't playing very focused tonight. . . probably lucky to get the win even though they finally started playing better 'D' and rebounded the ball on the defensive end.
Also, not sure if any of you saw Lute's reaction at the buzzer. . . he was pissed that Frye EVEN TOOK THAT SHOT! If I know Lute, he was yelling "NO SHOT" when Frye got that ball and may have distracted Frye from making that dunk (although obviously hard to do). If you were Walton and just heard that from Lute and got the rebound, would you go back up for the shot? Also, Walton struggled the entire game. . . I wasn't the least bit surprised that he chose to run out the clock in that split second decision. . . probably was praised by Lute in the end while Frye was getting an earful in the locker room.
