Suns at Nuggets

[FArting]

Suns are 0-2 this year on FSN AZ+ against Cleveland at home and Denver on the road.

 

[Proteus]

So disgusted. Way to throw this game away guys. Suns lose 105-99.

 

[jagu]

Frye SUCKS.

 

[Proteus]

Enjoy your golf in a couple of weeks Suns.

That is a devastating loss. That play where Nash was getting man handled and knocked over twice with no call really seemed to kill the Suns offense.

And I was in love with the idea of drafting Faried... and he looks better than I though he was.

 

[Mainstreet]

Tough loss.

I kept wondering why the Suns did not put Michael Redd back in the game when they needed some clutch shots in the final minutes.

 

[Proteus]

This team is unclutch.

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

You know your team sucks when Channing Frye is taking a clutch shot late in the game -- horrible call by Gentry. Trade Frye and Lopez for something, please!!!

I liked Faried too but I thought our pick was a bit too high to take him. In retrospect, I was definitely wrong. I like Morris but Faried would have been a stronger pick for us. JCSunsfan was pushing for him all season long. I guess we should have listened to him.

If we can just contain Lawson then we'll win unless Afflalo has one of those rare great offensive nights.

good call

You always make it seem like there is just one team in the game. Give Denver a little credit. They were playing at home, the game was just as huge to them as it was for us and they have a better record than we do for a reason. This was a winnable game and the loss hurts our playoff chances but it doesn't end our season.

Everytime Nash gets manhandled late in the 4th and there is no call. This team gets so soft in the 4th.

 

[Proteus]

Early losses to bad teams and blown games are gonna cost the Suns a playoff spot.

 

[Joe Mama]

Tough loss.

I kept wondering why the Suns did not put Michael Redd back in the game when they needed some clutch shots in the final minutes.

I was thinking the same thing. He's of the few guys on this team can create their own offense. When teams play a strong defense in the fourth quarter this team can go stone cold.

Andre Miller killed us.

It's the way of the league and has been since Moses and Noah were hitting two handed set shots. Some players get big calls in the 4th quarter but finesse players generally don't. We've always been led by finesse players and it's bit us in the butt several times.

[jagu]

If I were the coach I'd take Frye off the court. Dude is softer than the Pillsbury Dough Boy and he has no bleeping idea what he's doing if you watch him play. I think I'm back to the point where I rant about Frye after every game lol..

 

[sunsfan88]

Suns just choke. Nash was able to bail them out last game against Utah but he's 40 years old he can't do it every f***king night.

I missed this game and thankfully so. I hate watching this team choke, choke and choke in the 4th QTR. I checked score at one point in the 4th QTR and it was 99-96 us. Then of course we don't score a SINGLE point in the last 3 minutes of the game!!!!!!!!

I have a question, WHY THE F**K DID GENTRY BRING BACK THE STARTERS WHEN THE BENCH WAS PLAYING SO WELL IN THE 4TH???!!! They got us the f***king lead then he congratulates them by taking them out? I don't give a damn if its Nash, or Michael Jordan on the bench, but if the team on the court is doing well then you don't take them out unless they need it for rest which clearly wasn't the case here!!

Yea but they were missing their two key players, Galinarri and Chandler. Not to mention no Rudy for the bench.

And the loss doesn't hurt our playoff chances but it eliminates the possibility of trying to get a spot better than the 8th seed.

We agree about the Suns needing Michael Redd to shoot some daggers at the end of the game.

Also the Suns could have used Grant Hill's defense tonight on Miller or Afflalo.

 

[jagu]

We still have a load of good teams left to play. And we'll see a few more late game choke jobs... this team isn't built for consistency.

 

[sunsfan88]

Fire Gentry, its addition by subtraction. Just like when we traded Shaq away for nothing.

 

[desertdawg]

Coach sucks nuts

 

[desertdawg]

Been saying this all along

 

[sunsfan88]

I'm watching the Rockets game right now and what's the difference between us and them? They have a guy they can go to down the stretch for points....Luis Scola!

That's why I want Eric Gordon here so badly! He lit up the best team in the NBA for 31 pts...did they still lose? Well yea cause they don't have any quality role players or anything.

Suns are the complete opposite. We have quality role players (Dudley, Brown, Gortat and sometimes Frye) but we don't have a go to guy.

Suns #1 priority this off season should be to get Eric Gordon here. I don't care if we have to make him the highest paid player in NBA history or if we have to trade everything to get him, just bring his 23 year old *** to PHX!

Before I get flamed yea I'm being sarcastic about making him the highest paid player or giving up everything to get him, but seriously we have to try hard to get him here.

 

[sunsfan88]

Yeaaa Rockets beat the Lakers tomorrow and the Lakers are gonna be pissed tomorrow against the Suns. Plus Bynum got ejected for techs so he's gonna look to turn it around!

Big loss coming up tomorrow!!! Dragic leading the charge!
