Hawks at Suns 2-23-11

[Proteus]

Slow start to the 2nd half by the Suns.

 

[Proteus]

Take the ball to the basket guys and stop shooting these jumpers that aren't falling now.

 

[desertdawg]

Uh oh, some one flicked the Frye switch back to brickmode.

 

[Proteus]

Suns have hit only 2/9 shots in the 5 minutes of the 3rd quarter.

 

[Proteus]

Whoa. What a layup by Nash.

 

[Proteus]

Nash with a banked shot.

 

[Proteus]

Suns hustling on the offensive boards, this time Lopez.

 

[Proteus]

Nash #10 in 3 pointers made now.

 

[desertdawg]

Frye guy delivers the 3! Dudley too!

 

[Proteus]

Nash with an airball.

 

[desertdawg]

Pretty flat 3rd quarter...hope we saved it all for the 4th.

 

[desertdawg]

Nash should have been out a couple minutes ago.

 

[Dback Jon]

Nash #10 in 3 pointers made now.

12 more needed to tie for 9th

 

[Proteus]

Suns up 80-71 after the 3rd quarter. Suns shooting 48% with 11/21 3 pointers, Hawks 46% with 3/8 3 pointers.

Suns have committed 7 turnovers (Nash with 5 ), Hawks 8.

Suns have 7 offensive rebounds, Hawks 8.

Suns have hit 9/12 free throws, Hawks have hit 10/12 free throws.

Bad/mediocre quarter by the Suns...too many missed jumpers and 2nd chance points given up.

 

[Proteus]

Nash should have been out a couple minutes ago.

I don't understand why Gentry likes to play Nash all of the 1st and 3rd quarter.

 

[Proteus]

Whoa. Dudley with a dunk on the fast break.

 

[Proteus]

Haha. Warrick with a 3 shortly before the shot clock expires.

 

[desertdawg]

These guys are living off these jumpshots and killing us with them, but they'll cool down.

We just need to play the defense that got us ahead.

 

[JCSunsfan]

Bugs me to see ATL with Horford. That should have been our pick.

 

[Griffin]

The bench couldn't duplicate what it did in the second quarter, getting outscored 14-8 in 4 minutes to start fourth quarter while Nash rested.

 

[desertdawg]

Take the ball to the hole!

 

[Proteus]

Suns relying too much on long jumpers.

 

[desertdawg]

Vince Carter has left the building.

 

[Proteus]

Nice reverse layup by Gortat.

 

[desertdawg]

Gortat with the money spin move!
