Game 1: Suns at Portland

[Proteus]

Stop turning the ball over Nash. Nash with 6 turnovers with 5 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.

 

[Bert]

J Rich! WOW

 

[jagu]

I don't know about the rest of the Suns fans but I like this team.

 

[AfroSuns]

JRICH is the man!! He is playing like the GSW/Bobcat player who was the first option on offense.

 

[Bert]

Beautiful drive to the hole by Nash.

 

[AfroSuns]

Nashty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Bert]

Brandon Roy is really quick. Nice block Jrich!

 

[Ronin]

Channing Frye for three!

 

[Proteus]

Suns up 81-75 after the 3rd quarter.

Suns shooting 56% with 9/14 3 pointers, Trail Blazers 44% with 5/12 3 pointers.

 

[AfroSuns]

Mr Frye clocking in. Hope he brings it in the 4th

 

[Bert]

Goran Coast To Coast!

 

[AfroSuns]

Lets go Suns!! Win this game and start season on a good note.

 

[jagu]

Nash has lost this game almost single handedly....

 

[Proteus]

Nash with 9 turnovers with 3 minutes in the 4th quarter.

Way to throw the game away.

 

[slinslin]

This team lacks fundamantal thing such as rebounding that are needed to win basketball games.

Hedo Turkoglu was one of the worst moves in the history of the franchise.

 

[Bert]

Suns going back to old habits late in the game. Everyone standing around on offense doing nothing but watch Nash dribble.

 

[Proteus]

Oh goodie Nash missing a crunch time free throw.

 

[Proteus]

Embarassing meltdown by the Suns.

 

[AZ Sports Native]

Gonna be a looooong season. Can't give up that many offensive rebounds and expect to win.

 

[bwonger06]

Do not get this lineup at all. All jump shooters out there right now with no post presence at all. The Frye screen is awful because Nash keeps getting trapped and Frye continues to sit behind the three point line. You need someone who is willing to roll to the basket and at least establish some kind of ground down there.

Hopefully we don't see much of this lineup anymore.

 

[Bufalay]

Why is Turkoglu making so much money? There was a reason that Orlando didn't want to pay him that much even after he helped lead them to the finals.

 

[binkar]

The main reason I miss Amare is because if we would have signed him we wouldn't have been able to sign Frye.

 

[Bert]

Not a great start but pretty hard to win when you get outscored by 20 in the 4th quarter. Hard to blame it all on Nash. They all sucked in the 4th.

Oh well some things to build on. Go Suns!

 

[Folster]

Nash is going to be worn down very quickly this year.

 

[Proteus]

Suns lose 106-92 after being up 91-88 with 5:44 left in the 4th quarter.

Outscored 31-11 in the 4th quarter.
