2010 Playoffs: Round 1, Game 4 - Suns At Trail Blazers Game Thread

[Proteus]

Dudley and Frye are mentally not ready for the playoffs. Both way underachieving this series.

Dragic hasn't done much either.

 

[Proteus]

Wow. Nice move by Amare.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 72-74 after the 3rd quarter. Suns shooting 47% with 6/19 3 pointers. Trail Blazers shooting 47% with 4/10 3 pointers.

Suns (Nash with 3) and Trail Blazers have both committed 6 turnovers.

Suns have 5 offensive rebounds, Trail Blazers 9.

Suns have hit 10/14 free throws, Trail Blazers have hit 12/18 free throws.

this is a game where we need to feed Amare and get out of the way. Seems like he's got his drive going and no one on Portland can stop it.

Come on guys. Big fourth quarter. You can step on their throats rights here.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Barbs just makes my head hurt.

 

[Cheesebeef]

seriously... just FEED AMARE.

 

[Ronin]

o come on

 

[Cheesebeef]

need to get Hill back in and get Barbs out of the game. Can't play on O or D.

 

[Ronin]

Eat'em alive Amare

 

[Proteus]

Oh geez. Lb out of control commits a charge on the fast break.

 

[slinslin]

I Hate Barbosa

 

[Cheesebeef]

seriously, get Barbs out of the freaking game. you can see every mistake he's going to make 2 seconds before they happen.

 

[Ninjafish]

Where did Dragic go?

 

[slinslin]

That must be the 5th offensive foul by Barbosa in the last 2 games.

Plus he totally blew the first possession in the quarter as well.

 

[Proteus]

So why the heck did LB pass Dragic in the rotation?

 

[TJ]

Barbosa is too wild going into the hoop and POR knows it

They are giving us opportunities to take the lead and we are using them

 

[slinslin]

Huge opportunity to take the lead wasted by Barbosa..

 

[Cheesebeef]

I Hate Barbosa

slin, we disagree on a lot, but not here. He's just atrocious. Can't feed the post, missing open shots, out of control drives that you can see from a mile away.

he and his salary should be dumped in the off-season to keep this squad together and keep them under the luxury tax... or put them in a better position in regards to it anyway.

 

[Cheesebeef]

we've got no one to blame if we lose this game but ourselves. They haven't made a shot for 8 minutes... and we're tied.

Get Rich back in and get Leo out. Seriously, how the hell did he pass Dragic?

 

[shazaam6]

Barbosa is too predictable. He doesn't look to pass. He learned under d'antoni also so I wouldn't expect good defensive positioning either. His talent is fast break, speed scoring in an open game. When he tries that in a slow game when the defense is set, he charges. Predictable.

 

[Cheesebeef]

just keep feeding Stat. He's got it going.

nice travel by Roy. Get Barbs out of the game please.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 79-80 with 6:25 left in the 4th quarter.

 

[slinslin]

Why in the world would you double this Brandon Roy.

How do you let Howard catch it under the hoop out of bounds with 3 secs on the shot clock. Ridiculous.

 

[shazaam6]

we've got no one to blame if we lose this game but ourselves. They haven't made a shot for 8 minutes... and we're tied.

Get Rich back in and get Leo out. Seriously, how the hell did he pass Dragic?

good call

 

[Ninjafish]

Everyone is way too hesitant
