Suns @ Clippers 1/11/09

[Blackification]

Terry is getting better as a coach. He is showing improvement its a good sign.

 

[cly2tw]

They are now a better half court team than fast running one! With patience, they ran up the lead to 13.

Running fast open the door for bad teams to hang in there with you since the chances are more equalized and we are not making few errors than them, which was essential for DA's system to succeed.

[LV-Suns]

Barnes can't shoot anymore.

 

[Proteus]

Argh...Suns outscored 6-2 in the 1st 1:13 of the 4th quarter.

 

[Andrew]

Here we go, another 4th quarter meltdown, prove me wrong guys...

 

[cly2tw]

Barnes can't shoot anymore.

Barnes just can't calm himself. He is more suited to DA's style. And he didn't box out that allowed Thorton's putback dunk

and, another no boxing out and Al reb. dunk, due to Barnes's bad play

 

[Proteus]

Suns gave up 11 points in the 1st 3 minutes of the 4th quarter.

Barnes just can't calm himself. He is more suited to DA's style. And he didn't box out that allowed Thorton's putback dunk

thorton with another putback dunk.

 

[Ronin]

tied game...

 

[LV-Suns]

tied up!

 

[Andrew]

This is horrible

 

[Blackification]

Bring in Nash.

 

[Proteus]

Why are a group of veterans like the Suns so prone to 4th quarter meltdowns? Sigh.

 

[mojorizen7]

I don't care how ugly it is....SUNS need a W today.

 

[Andrew]

Get Barnes out now...

 

[LV-Suns]

now we lost the lead

 

[Blackification]

Take barnes out already.

 

[Hayduke]

Worse than ugly. Pathetic.

 

[Ronin]

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 93-94 with 5:44 left in the 4th quarter.

 

[LV-Suns]

This is bad. What is wrong with this team?

Barnes needs to sit, he haven't had a good game since the Blazers game.

 

[Andrew]

This team is so erratic, holy cow.....

 

[cly2tw]

Shaq is tired too. Barnes was the main cause for the most problems on both sides! Damn it.

 

[LV-Suns]

Outscored 21-9 in the forth.

Hey Terry Porter, please stop playing all our starters for the whole 3rd quarter. Its obvious why we cant score in the 4th q.
