Phoenix Suns @ LA Lakers 12/10/08

[mojorizen7]

Great effort tonight.
All this bashing is just plain stupid.
The LAKERS are having to earn this home victory.

 

[Black Jesus]

the suns had 8 guys tononight and three of those guys were Amundson, Lopez and Dragic... So id say they had a legit 6 man roto.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 102-100 with 26.1 seconds left in the 4th quarter.

 

[SirStefan32]

Most of you guys need to give it a freaking rest. This is a team that is only 8 deep with nobody in the middle. The Lakers are a good freaking team.

I never thought we'd be this close for this long in the game. The Lakers are full strength--we're missing Boris, Raja AND Shaq, and yet the Lakers had to work like crazy to win this game.

Oh yeah. This is also a back-to-back against the best team in the West who got embarrassed the night before. It's amazing that we're this close.

By the way, is Steve Nash upset about the trade? Have the ESPN commentators mentioned anything about it?

Apparently Nash is crying because his best friend got traded.
I am getting really sick of Nash and his crap.

 

[mojorizen7]

Hill can't shoot the 3 worth a crap.

Which is why he was left wide open....and a wide open 3 attempt from Hill isn't a bad shot down 2 possessions on the road.

Is your opinion based on the speculation of ESPN announcers? Mr. Mark "I talk out my ass" Jackson is your source? Sick of Nash and his crap? Nash's crap made this team relevant the past few seasons.

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

 

[Proteus]

I hate this foul game.

I don't give a **** about last few seasons. I am sick of people living in the past. Yes- Nash was amazing last few years. That is not relevant. He is a bloody crybaby NOW, and I am sick of it.

LOL! You're actually serious? Hilarious!


Hell of a fight by the Suns tonight.

[Hat]

I wonder what Kobe said to Amare after the game?

 

[SirStefan32]

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

Actually, I was not. I am really sick and tired of Nash always whining, bitching, moaning, and crying about everything to the media.

 

[atikiN]

Great defence, keep it up!

 

[mjb21aztd]

i'm not even upset over this loss, the suns played a hard fought game shorthanded kudos to them. I can't wait to see Richardson on Friday should be fun to watch!!!!

 

[mojorizen7]

Barnes stepped up,Hill stepped up,Barbosa stepped up.
Could've used some more Nash tonight.

ROFL

 

[mojorizen7]

Damn, Raja held Kobe to only 18 tonight! Oh wait.....

 

[Andrew]

Well it is hard to lose, but we were out-numbered and we kept it close for most of the game. You can't fault the team for trying because they could have just laid down and took the beating, but they didn't. They showed heart tonight...despite the loss.

 

[mojorizen7]

I wonder what Kobe said to Amare after the game?

"Wanna get some tacos?"

 

[SirStefan32]

Barnes stepped up,Hill stepped up,Barbosa stepped up.

I always liked Barnes, but I am beginning to like him more and more every game. I just hope Sarver gives him a nice contract this summer.

It would be a tragedy if an extension isn't worked out before next summer.

 

[Evil Ash]

We were missing our starting C, starting SG, backup PG, and a talented but highly inconsistent backup big man yet only lost by 5 on the road to the team with the best record in the Western Conference. Nothing really to complain about for me. In fact it makes me more pumped up for when Richardson joins the team

If I was a Laker fan, I'd be worried because their defensive effort the past 2 games has been absolutely embarassing.

Did Steve Nash replace Rosie on "The View" or something? Leandro Barbosa's Mom just died, Shaq's great-grandmother died over the weekend, the Suns' offense has been OJ'd by Terry Porter, and all they seem to talk about is how Steve Nash must be having a bad game because he misses his best friend? Honestly, I wouldn't have much of a problem with it, but has anybody considered how this must make Dirk feel? What if he was watching this game tonight, sitting on his couch, hearing all about how his son's godfather and how he misses his best friend.

I hope they write an article about this on the ESPN homepage soon.
