Archie is my favorite player on this team, kid is gonna be good.

 

[Mainstreet]

Steve Albert would have would have Plumlee in foul trouble by missed calls but luckily Plumlee has yet to commit a foul.

 

[Mainstreet]

Marcus has looked better than Markieff in recent games.

Archie is my favorite player on this team, kid is gonna be good.

I enjoy watching him play as well. He is really exciting.

 

[Mainstreet]

I wish Ann Drysdale would correct Albert. He misses so many calls.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nice play by Goodwin.

 

[AfroSuns]

I wish Ann Drysdale would correct Albert. He misses so many calls.

Amazing how many he gets wrong, i am guessing Anne is just being polite. Probably rolling her eyes

 

[AfroSuns]

Jordan sitting on the bench, scowling and barking orders at the players have to be unnerving for the young fellas, not to mention undermine the coaching staff.

 

[Mainstreet]

Plumlee now with two fouls. Without Plumlee helping guard Jefferson, the Suns are in trouble.

 

[Mainstreet]

Frye schooling Jefferson on drive to hoop.

 

[Mainstreet]

McRoberts leaning all over Dragic... literally.

 

[Mainstreet]

Does McRoberts have a license to maul?

 

[Mainstreet]

Ish Smith has a tendency to run down the 24 second clock without the ability to create his own shot or make the right pass.

 

[ProdigalSun]

Dang just got home and its already the 4th qtr. Still no Bledsoe huh?

 

[AfroSuns]

Channing definitely got it going tonight

 

[Mainstreet]

Channing definitely got it going tonight

He has had some nice open shots but they all count.

What surprises me, Plumlee has not returned to the game. Perhaps it's his poor FT shooting. Also Markieff is starting to play better.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns are turnover city.

 

[ProdigalSun]

I hope this team doesn't take too many years off of Hornacek's life

 

[AfroSuns]

The Suns are turnover city.

Almost seem like the want to lose......on purpose

 

[Mainstreet]

Almost seem like the want to lose......on purpose

My thoughts.

 

[Mainstreet]

What an ugly win for the Suns. Dragic had 6 turnovers and Smith 3.

It seems like the Suns did not have any fire at the end.

I wish Ann Drysdale would correct Albert. He misses so many calls.

It was also sad watching Steve Albert try to elaborate a point which was illustrated on screen. He had probably gotten a heads-up about it in his headset.

He stammered three times, then stopped, told us he didn't read all of it and left it hanging. That's unprofessional. 'Talk about not being able to walk and chew gum at the same time. The good announcers make it look so easy.

Albert has also gone back to his New York shtick punch lines to what his color commentator points out, whether Eddie Johnson or Ann Meyers-Drysdale. This ain't New Yawk, Steve, this is the desert. And you don't need to authenticate or paraphrase what they say. Just call the play-by-play if you can.

Turnovers and missed free throws, the 4th quarter was ugly to watch.
