Mavericks @ Suns 03-27-11

[AfroSuns]

Its a good thing Carter was removed from starting line up, but using Dudley will not fix the issue. We need a legit 2 guard. Dudley is a good player, who is perfect coming off the bench with his energy i.e Jason terry, Manu. If the Suns dont address this, we will continue to lose using the current personnel. Hope the Suns sign a player like JRich next season.

Sigh. Suns lose 91-83. Ugly game by the Suns after the 1st quarter and a bad loss.

 

[Bert]

The play never developed. They went screen and the Mavs played around it, they knew it was coming.
Did Gentry have a back up play to the basket if the screen 3 didn't work? No.
Suns were left to "wing" it.

lol I'm not going to argue, I'm not in the huddle as you obviously are.

You could be right, the shot was pretty inexplicable.

91-83, mavs. 27.6 left in the game.

we are done fellas...

Looks like it, but I hope Gentry stays with this line up, especially in the second half next time.

Haters are gonna go off.

Me either. I get your point.

Dallas is what 30 games over .500? We competed, Nash sucked (other than his passing). I just don't think the Suns looked coordinated with their new starters. I'm okay with the loss... I think Nash needs to go.. not that I don't love the guy but he is wearing down and I don't know how much longer he can survive in this physical league.

 

[Proteus]

Can we please at least beat the Kings? I don't want the team to having to a losing record against one of the worst teams in the league.

 

[Broseph]

i remember the suns teams from 5-7 years ago would always hang with the mavs. not this team though, just not good enough. mark cuban may be a ***** but he wants to win and strives to spend money on players to do so. game over, season over.

 

[Bert]

Me either. I get your point.

Youre good dude I get what you were saying, sorry for the attitude, it was just a frustrating loss. blah

I've gotten in the habit of defending Gentry and I'm not even sure WHY I'm doing it anymore.

 

[jagu]

This is what happens when you remove Rolo from the starting lineup!! Gentry sucks!!!

lol u funny guy

 

[Proteus]

Mavs shoot only 38% and we still lose. That sucks.

Suns shot 1/16 from the 3, Mavs 10/26.

Suns hit only 61% (14/23) of their free throws.

Then I guess we'll have to remove Gentry from the starting lineup.

 

[Griffin]

Different starting lineup, same result...

One of the worst-played games of the season, offensively. I expect to see more of that the farther away this team gets from the playoffs. Btw, that's two straight games we've lost at home, while leading going into the fourth quarter, to a team playing on the second night of a back-to-back.

 

[Proteus]

My main hope for the rest of the season is that we can somehow finish at .500.

Chill out. Think lottery. Maybe the Suns can lose out.

 

[BC867]

As was posted during the 4th quarter, Marcin played all but, what, 2 or 2 1/2 minutes of the 2nd half. That's short-sited coaching. Or desperate coaching.

Either way, it's not good coaching.

 

[desertdawg]

Youre good dude I get what you were saying, sorry for the attitude, it was just a frustrating loss. blah

Ya-mon, I kinda knew we were already out of the playoffs, but Dork and the Mavs, I don't like losing to them.

2012 Suns... one can only wonder.

 

[Mainstreet]

Let's face it. No Nash, no Frye, no Brooks, no win.

 

[sunsfan88]

Suns choke away chance at playoffs.

I bet slinslin is happy....better draft choice.

Lopez surprised me with his play off the bench after Gentry had to take that one time out to get things straight.

 

[AfroSuns]

Chill out. Think lottery. Maybe the Suns can lose out.

I was already thinking lottery after the Hornet's lost. Seriously, we are just not playing as good as any of the teams ahead of us right now. I am just happy our pick is protected.
I think Houston makes the PO and Hornets drop out

 

[sunsfan88]

Its time to say goodbye to Nash. He simply cannot be the star of a team any longer.

Brooks ain't the future either.

 

[Evil Ash]

Can you ever NOT make excuses for Gortat? Seriously.

We've told you for MONTHS that starting Gortat would make little difference and we were proven right. You really need to stop obsessing over the guy.

Our coach is fine. Our lack of talent especially at SG is not. Vince Carter couldn't make an NBADL roster right now

 

[desertdawg]

What surprised me tonight was how Frye never really got off or got any looks. I am used to it with Hill.
Gentry switched it up in the second, allowed Carter to stink it up, Lopez was doing good for a bench center, I wish he had some time in the second.
Mavs are tough, but we had 'em.
