game slipping away... what an embarrasment...

 

[arwillan]

if amare doesnt start to get the ball here, we're toast. Marion also needs to step up at this point in the game

well any team can be beaten. nash is on the bench. It's clear that nash is the mvp of the league. I hope dirk can take it though.

he got it.

Shawn has dissappeared 2 games in a row. 11 points? I agree, he needs to step up and old Amare would have put that down.

 

[Covert Rain]

That's why Marcus is no nash. He should have passed that to Amare.

 

[devilfan02]

This is disgusting. How many 3's is Marion gonna jack up? It's infuriating, he needs to start slashing more

marion is great with nash. marion is extremely athletic. He can jump as high faster than anyone in the league. He kills people with his athletic ability on both sides of the floor. I just don't think marion can create his own shot. If he's open, he's a good shooter. I think he is one that benefits more than any other.....when nash is on the floor.

Did you see that? Boris is holding his back??? Did he get hurt?

this game is far from over. with the suns.....it's never over. Joe johnson is playing well though.

 

[Covert Rain]

Nash or no Nash...it's totally embarrasing to lost to the Atlanta Hawks. There is no excuse for it.

 

[HooverDam]

Another crap defensive effort by Raja on the opposing teams best 3 point shooter. Its like a fetish for him to try to help out inside when its not needed and leave an opposing shooter open.

 

[dodie53]

what's the score?

 

[KloD]

Atlanta? Seriously? Jesus....

 

[TJ]

this is the most embarrasing moment this season

 

[AnonymouslyKnown]

this game sucks...NASH COME BACK!

 

[Covert Rain]

this is the most embarrasing moment this season

Agreed. That's like the Colts losing to the Cardinals.

 

[HooverDam]

Good d by the Suns leading to the Raja dunk (didn't know he could do that), but they need to get a quick steal or stop right now.

EDIT: weeee another missed free throw- 22/31 is not going to get it done.

 

[S_Nash]

I just don't think marion can create his own shot.

Okay, you might think that, but everyone else in the basketball world KNOWS that.

And before you start running your mouth, this is a prime example of why Nash should be the 3x MVP and not Dirk. We could lose every single game with him out. It doesn't change the fact that when he's in, Phoenix is the most dangerous team in the league.

 

[Covert Rain]

IT'S FREAKING ATLANTA. I don't care if Nash is out. There is no way we should lose to freaking Atlanta.

 

[Griffin]

Great block by Amare. But you can't really fault the referee for wanting to put his own stamp on the game. if he decides the game is over, the game is over.

Need 3's...not even shooting them

WHAT??!?! You can't? Since when is a REF suppose to put a stamp on a game? That is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard.

Nash or no nash, id say dallas is more dangerous then we are. we havent lost to atlanta yet, but it isnt looking good. im pretty sure dallas could have handled such a task as beasting the hawks
