I couldn't watch, but from following the score online, it sure looks like an ugly finish. A win is a win, I guess, but it would be nice to see some intensity soon. Right now this team is screaming 50-and-fade. (Well, okay, 60-and-fade.)

horrible officiating.

If the Suns could step it up defensively I think most of their problems would be solved. They just aren't making stops. Also Marion doesn't seem like he is scoring like he should after the hand injury. Marion can bring the much needed energy the Suns need. The Suns may need to create team chemistry again like they did when they came out of the gate slow to start the season. I'm liking Pike's contribution and it looks like Diaw is coming around.

I'm glad I missed this one. These games give me hearburn.

As I said, I didn't see the game, but I'm concerned that James Jones is not playing all that well. He came out and hit a couple of threes, then nothing for the rest of the game including just 1 rebound in 17 minutes. In fact, I get concerned that he had no fouls. That's not being careful, that's being passive.

And played well too.

Agree, he played well AGAIN. Let's hope that is enough for D'Antoni to keep using him.
