Suns at Lakers 3-22-11

[Proteus]

Suns down 66-60 after the 2nd quarter. Suns shooting 51% with 6/16 3 pointers, Lakers 54% with 5/13 3 pointers.

Suns have committed 3 turnovers, Lakers 2.

Suns and Lakers both have 6 offensive rebounds.

Suns have hit 6/8 free throws, Lakers have hit 11/12 free throws.

The game seems to have started getting away from the Suns about midway through the 2nd quarter and the momentum is with the Lakers. I just hope we have enough energy to beat the Raptors tomorrow night as I don't see us winning this game.

Big market teams can afford to stash a starting caliber Odom on the bench. Parity in NBA? HELL FREAKING NO.

 

[Proteus]

WTF is Vince Carter doing getting the last shot? He sucks balls, he shouldn't get them.

Please give it to Frye or Nash for the last shot, or take it inside.

Oh well, we still up in this. I hope Gentry starts Gortat again after the half, and limits VC's minutes the rest of the way.

Lil Brooks needs to get his boogey on when he comes in for Nash. I hope we have a lead going into the 4th.

Nash would either not get a shot up or take a horrible shot as well. :;shrug:

 

[Zbigniew]

Frye have to improve his 3-pointers. He missed open shots.

 

[jagu]

I think this is the type of game where we could use Childress.

I think this is the type of game where we could use Childress.

Why do you say that?

 

[Proteus]

Lakers just had their highest scoring 2nd quarter of the season 39 points on 67% shooting.

Lakers just had their highest scoring 2nd quarter of the season 39 points on 67% shooting.

And Lopez is starting the 2nd half.
Might as well get ready for the Raptors. That means Gortat will play 20 straight minutes afte Gasol is done using Nopez.

 

[95pro]

wow no loose ball foul call on fisher on hill.

 

[Proteus]

Frye needs to hit his 3s.

 

[95pro]

hill, almost, with another dumb t/o

 

[Proteus]

And Lopez is starting the 2nd half.
Might as well get ready for the Raptors.

Nice to know that Lopez's confidence is more important than trying to win the game.

 

[Proteus]

Suns bricking their 3s to start off the 3rd quarter.

 

[95pro]

VC blows a wide open 3ptr

Gasol will eat him up, and then Gortat will play the rest of the way out and be tired. Go Gentry!

 

[95pro]

6 unanswered pts. 60-72 with about 9:37 in the 3rd

 

[SirStefan32]

I'd like to see Chilli on Odom. Odom is just too quick for Frye.

 

[edukator1]

Horrible start of 3Q

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns need to learn when VC becomes a negative. He is now.

 

[Proteus]

Suns not bothering to show up in the 2nd half so far as they've been outscored 6-0 in the 1st 2 1/2 minutes of the 3rd quarter.

 

[jagu]

Suprise surprise.. NBA , where boring happens.

 

[Proteus]

Bring in the Polish Hammer.

 

[desertdawg]

Horrible start of 3Q

Horrible end to our playoff dreams, but fitting. Hopefully next year's coach will start the best players.

 

[Proteus]

At what point do the deep bench guys come in so we can save some energy for the Raptors?

 

[jagu]

HOw about like a glimpse of defense? Goodnight folks
