what a dunk by amare

looked a little like the amare of old, only before there would be a defender going up with him and he'd flush it just as hard

[Hat]

haha nice block by Amare at the end.

What were the starter minutes? Absolute disgusting that DA makes them play that long.

 

[arwillan]

good game but our flaws remain.

amare cant stay out of foul trouble, we keep our starters in when we clearly have the game won, and we let them back into it at times.

some bright spots were the play of skinner and the play of amare at the end of the game. leandro was a stud as usual. pike looked pretty decent shooting-wise.

Impressive win on the road. The pacific divison is probably already over.

I was thinking the same thing. Seems most of the teams in the NBA all suck this year, like they are asleep or something.

Why the hell is Grant Hill playing 43 minutes in November?!

i think many of us would very much like to know why any player is playing that much in a 10 point victory, especially in november, and especially Grant Hill.

 

[Griffin]

We turned the ball over 25 times, Houston 9.
We gave up 16 offensive rebounds, Houston 4.
And we won the game by 10.
That's pretty impressive within itself.

I agree the starters are playing way too much, but the game wasn't really secured until the last few minutes, and by then I guess D'Antoni didn't think there was any point sending in the bench warmers. Although we have rookies this season, and that's what they are for.

Hill again played more minutes than anyone else on the floor. But Raja was out.

Nobody should be playing forty minutes a game, even Shawn. To have three guys up there is just ludicrous. It's as if D'Antoni hasn't learned anything.

Yao continues to be non-factor against Amare & the SUNS.
A healthy T'Mac would've made it more interesting but the SUNS match up well against Houston. Incredible shooting tonight. I'd like to see Skinner continue to get minutes in the rotation....even when Raja returns. Skinner should take a little of G. Hill's excess minutes when Bell returns IMO.
GO SUNS

 

[Ronin]

Nvm!

I wish i could answer that.
Hill was laboring a bit in the second half......come on Mike?!
