When Nash retires the general game plan and style change.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Strawberry in now. No pressure on the rookie since the game is out of hand. Hit a nice 3.

 

[mojorizen7]

I'm pretty sure if you looked at every game thread that you've posted in you have said the Suns were embarrassing at some point.

Frankly, I don't feel embarrassment over this, not at all.

No kidding. What is there to be embarrassed about having 3 starters out and getting blown out by a good team on the road?
Lets hope nobody gets hurt & DA doesn't just sit on his butt in the 4th qtr and continues to coach these guys.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Strawberry burned on a simple cut to the basket. Looks like his defense will fit in well here.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Strawberry airballs a 3....

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Banks dribbles down and airballs a running 3. I bet D'Antoni extra happy on that play. I would pull him right there.

 

[mojorizen7]

Barbosa sure plays selfishly at times.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Marks puts forth more effort rebounding in 2 minutes than Amare does all game. It's a fact.

Amare did finish with 14 rebounds, 5 offensive, in 29 minutes of play.

Fixed that for you.

(oh god, I never thought I would resort to that...)

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Amare did finish with 14 rebounds, 5 offensive, in 29 minutes of play.

The Jazz had 14 of their 16 offensive rebounds while Amare was in the game.

Sure, but when it's him playing along with four guards, he can't box out everyone.

Amare was in the game frequently with Skinner. It isn't an excuse this time. His effort was comical after the second quarter. This board loves to put Amare on a pedestal and it isn't remotely deserved right now.

 

[bigfoot]

I hope the Suns realize what a rare gift it is to play alongside the league's best point guard, and that their best chance at winning it all is if the core rolls as a strongly cohesive unit. I'm so ready to move on. Get well everyone!

Who was Amare on most of the time? Boozer doesn't have any offensive rebounds.

They played a zone for large chunk of the game, so i guess Amare was in the middle

On his own trying to grab every rebound when the entire Jazz team is crashing the boards.

Okur. Amare didn't guard Boozer all night.

When we played zone the Suns were using Skinner, Diaw, Pike, Barbosa, Bell.

OK, I wasn't sure. Okur had a good rebounding game, but as was pointed out above the Suns went to a zone early and that makes it real tough to rebound.

Perhaps you're correct, but i thought i saw him playing in the middle of the zone a few times.

That would be relevant if Amare was in the game for the majority of the time we were zoning but he was not.

And we only zoned in the second period when the Suns made their run back in the game.
