Nuggets at Suns 3-10

[edukator1]

I just can't watch it....

 

[AfroSuns]

I would rather Nash not play again tonight

 

[Proteus]

24 point deficit in the 3rd quarter at home.

 

[desertdawg]

Lets do something.

 

[GorrilaLips]

90 to 66?

MY GAWD! Did someone on here masturbate with a nun's hat to piss off the gods!

 

[edukator1]

One word *******

 

[95pro]

woa! whats going on?? i turn on the game and everything is going south...

 

[desertdawg]

Can we just give up? I mean, we gave up in the first half but can we make it official?

Never that, we can run with who has at least kinda played tonight.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns need to get Nash healthy by resting him for at least a couple of games and let the chips fall where they may.

 

[TBaslim]

Might be time for Steve to take a game off to get well. We'll lose without him and Frye, but we aren't making the playoffs anyway if he can't shoot the ball out of the PnR.

Teams know he's not shooting and are now cheating the passing lanes more.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 90-66 after the 3rd quarter. Suns shooting 39% with 3/18 3 pointers, Nuggets 56% with 6/16 3 pointers.

Suns have committed 17 turnovers (Nash with 6 ), Nuggets 13.

Suns and Nuggets both have 7 offensive rebounds.

Suns have hit 13/14 free throws, Nuggets have hit 8/14 free throws.

Really embarassed by the Suns tonight.

 

[95pro]

good idea by pietrus, brooks should have been putting on the pressure

 

[desertdawg]

Oh well, it happens to everyone, we sucked tonight, never really got it going. Bad start, bad middle, bad passing, bad 3 pt shooting, horrible defense, I am glad we don't do this as much anymore though. Atleast Gentry tried messing with the line up, I gotta give him that.

 

[TBaslim]

Nuggs looking like a good playoff matchup for the Western powers. I think they can take some teams to the limit with their depth, height and speed if healthy. Don't think they have the collective bball smarts or shooters to shock the world, but they are a better team after the Melo trade for sure. I don't like some of their players (Smith, Martin), but they have skill.

that's classy...."sometimes you got to land on him..." meaning falling on brooks. Awesome commentators from Denver

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns need to bring in Siler to finish the game, not Lopez.

That would be the noxious Scott Hastings. Uber-douche color guy for the Nuggets. Not just a homer like some others, but a really classless one. As evidenced by him wishing an opposing player gets injured.

Comes off like an angry drunk. Makes Tom Leander sound like Vin Scully.

 

[Zbigniew]

Gortat's tied his rebounds career high, but nobody can help him on a board

 

[desertdawg]

LOLopez battling confidence problems, more like suckage problems.

I'd rest Nash until he's completely healed and I'd play Warrick 40+ minutes a game and make him the focal point of our offense. Come the offseason I'd search for one of those GM's that relies on stats and send him Hakim for a nice draft pick. When we get lucky with the lottery we can draft Sullinger with the number one pick and grab Kemba Walker with the pick we got for Warrick. Trade Nash for another pick and a young 2 guard and we're on our way.

[desertdawg]

Lopez and Siler on the court at the same time, Gentry must be working on his starting line up against the Lakers. For really though, I don't have a problem with it, it shows LOLopez that he is playing with the bucket unit.

 

[Proteus]

Yay!! Siler scores.

 

[Proteus]

Suns lose 116-97. Just a really embarassing game from the Suns.

I guess that's how most people will look at it. Myself, I see us playing with a Nash that should clearly NOT be playing and without our starting power forward. We're a better team than we were 3 months ago but we're not good enough to beat Denver when we're minus two starters. And, even though Steve played, we are clearly minus two starters. Add in the fact that Denver is an improved team now that the distraction of Melo is behind them and this game is not too surprising.

I've heard talk Sullinger may not declare for the draft but who knows. Maybe the Suns would have been better off letting Dowdell push Dragic back to the third PG position and keeping that first round pick. It looks like Dowdell is a larger version of Brooks. I don't see a team giving the Suns a first round pick for Warrick.
