Jazz At Suns Game Thread

[Michael]

To watch Grant Hill play like that is just amazing!

 

[Proteus]

Williams picks up his 3rd foul with about 3:50 left in the 2nd quarter.

 

[AfroSuns]

Williams picks up his 3rd foul with about 3:50 left in the 2nd quarter.

If only the Suns can stop turning it over

 

[Ronin]

Man, the turnovers.

 

[Proteus]

Suns with 9 turnovers with about 2:20 left in the 2nd quarter.

 

[Proteus]

Wow...nice layup by Nash.

 

[Proteus]

And then Nash taken advantage of by a nobody on the defensive end.

 

[Proteus]

Wow...another nice layup by Nash.

 

[Ronin]

+1

 

[Proteus]

Oh geez...a nobody with a buzzer beater 3 to end the 1st half.

 

[Proteus]

Suns up 57-49 after the 2nd quarter. We really should be up by a lot more. Suns shooting 65% with 3/8 3 pointers, Jazz 40% with 4/9 3 pointers.

The Jazz have 11 offensive rebounds for 11 2nd chance points.

The Suns have committed 9 turnovers (Nash with 4).

 

[Proteus]

Whew...nice shot by Hill to beat the shot clock.

 

[Proteus]

Nice dunk by Amare on the fast break.

 

[Proteus]

Argh...Nash picks up his 4th foul with about 6:40 left in the 3rd quarter.

 

[Proteus]

Nice layup by Hill.

I forgot how much I hate to watch games against the Jazz.. I used to complain in the playoffs that I thought the Spurs got away with too much hacking and knocking people out of established position without fouls being called but man they are amateurs at it compared to Utah. They're not as bad without Harpring though, that guy was the worst.

Nash is playing well but watching him on D it's obvious he's hurting. We've given up at least 6 or 7 offensive rebounds tonight just off of him getting beat by Williams and our bigs having to leave Okur/Boozer/etc. to help.

Robin has been awesome on Boozer tonight.

 

[Cheesebeef]

whoa... Amare is really starting to look A LOT like 2004-5 Amare with his quickness/explosion, something I didn't think I'd ever see or say.

 

[Proteus]

Geez...hit your free throws guys.

 

[Cheesebeef]

i mean, even just now, he missed that dunk, but that spin move he just pulled off is something I haven't seen from him for years it seems like.

come on guys. hit your FTs.

 

[Proteus]

Hill takes another charge.

 

[AfroSuns]

Hill = Awesome

 

[95pro]

why couldnt hill have been running the team as backup PG the past 2years?
he looks good out there tonight

 

[Sovereignz]

Hill is a bad ass. I disagree about him running the point though, we're hitting everything tonight but the offense looks a little disjointed.

 

[Proteus]

Suns up 86-75 after the 3rd quarter. Suns shooting 64% with 4/10 3 pointers, Jazz 39% with 5/13 3 pointers.

Suns have committed 14 turnovers (Nash with 4).

Jazz with 15 offensive rebounds for 14 2nd chance points.

Suns have only hit 14/22 (64%) of their free throws. Jazz have hit 20/27 (74%) of their free throws.

I know we're winning by 11 but I can't say I'm that impressed with how we've been playing tonight.

 

[95pro]

damn 2 3's in a row by dwill...
