Suns At Clippers Game Thread

[Sunburn]

Good job on the offensive end Frye. I refuse to give him more than that.

 

[Proteus]

Nice block by Lou.

 

[AfroSuns]

OMG! If Channing shoots like this in the post season, the Suns can do a lot of damage.

 

[Proteus]

Wow...another 3 from Frye.

 

[Proteus]

Dudley with the 3.

 

[Sunburn]

Holy ****

 

[Proteus]

Wow. Suns up 119-90 with 5:43 left in the 4th quarter.

 

[Sovereignz]

Jeez we're gonna have 80 this half.

 

[Proteus]

Wow...Collins actually gets to play.

 

[Cheesebeef]

it's sooooooo nice to actually get big leads and be able to sit Nash for the entire 4th quarter. Damn, if this team hadn't gone completely bat crap nutso during December/January when they kept blowing 15 point leads, they might actually, somehow, be right up there with the Lakers... eh, probably not that high, but they'd likely have a nice lead for the number 2 spot.

good to get Nash a little rest before a tough back to back with Utah tomorrow night.

also stunning... the second best conference record in the West...

I hope Dragic is not sidelined with an ankle injury

 

[95pro]

the older Griffin with some hops!

 

[Proteus]

Yay!!! Suns win 127-101. Nice win by the Suns. The 2nd half was very impressive.

 

[TJ]

Move over Amare, we have Taylor Griffin in the house

 

[Chaplin]

In the last 14 games, the Suns 11-3 record is best in the ENTIRE LEAGUE. Better than the Lakers, better than the Cavs.

How have their strength of schedule's matched up with ours?

 

[slinslin]

Amare still averaging 25+/10 post allstar game and playing just 33mpg.

Extend the man.

Our is like the 3rd worst in the league behind the Rockets and Thunder I believe. But I tend to think that is because of the early part of the season.

The Suns early schedule was brutal. The Lakers meanwhile played their first 30 games at home.

Strength of schedule in the NBA is an overrated subject, as opposed to say....the NFL.

Travel in the NBA sucks for every team. Every team has their East coast/West coast road trips....and their long home stands......mixed in with back to backs.....while they ALL share the same break in February(with the exception of those involved in the festivities).....and don't they all play each other at least once? Eventually it all evens out more often than not.

The NFL schedules are far less cookie-cutter than the NBA's. The fact that all teams don't play each other every year.....giving certain teams a geographical advantage or disadvantage when playing outside the conference is big. Also, all bye weeks aren't created equal.

Just sayin.
