Suns @ Hornets Game Thread

Amare's boxing out is still suspect.

What boxing out? Looking up doesn't count as boxing out.

thx a lot!

 

[Proteus]

Lopez with 2 fouls in 30 seconds.

 

[Nash2Amare]

Awesome play, Barbozo.

Where is the defense?..and none of them seem to care what is going on. We need every win we can get..

 

[TJ]

Calm down Lopez

 

[az1965]

Were you under the impression Porter came with a magic wand that would make the Suns a good defensive team in a single preseason?

No, but I expect some effort on the defensive side... they were getting easy shots.

 

[SirStefan32]

Wow, only Barbosa can screw up 3 on 1 fastbreak.

 

[Proteus]

Lopez 3 fouls in 1 minute 35 seconds.

 

[TJ]

Call it both ways, ref

 

[TJ]

I know Dragic and Lopez are rookies, but they sure are looking the part tonight.

 

[Ciani]

This team isnt better defensively than last year, they just foul more. Much more.

 

[Chaplin]

Out of everything, this kind of comment is the most frustrating. You've got to be kidding me.

 

[TJ]

My God, this has become a circus

 

[Nash2Amare]

The offense is an absolute clusterfk

Put Nash back in...NOW.

 

[Proteus]

Finally Nash returns with 6:42 left in the 2nd quarter.

 

[az1965]

So we still have backup PG problem... the team was completely disoriented without Nash.

barbosa is clueless. hes been in the league too long to not smarten up. he makes the same mistakes over and over and over and over again. dude needs to go, hes only going to cost us in the playoffs, just like hes done every year.

 

[SirStefan32]

They are awful tonight.

 

[SirStefan32]

Next time Nash is resting, give Singletary some playing time. There is no way he can be worse than Dragic.

 

[jagu]

why the hell is barbosa jumping up everytime he drives to the paint, even when theres a guy right in front of him! the guy is a friggin idiot. its turnover city and we are only down 9. hopefully amare takes over. suns need more practice.

Prove me wrong. After the Shaq trade we were decent defensively (sometimes even very good), now there are more bad switches, players are out of position in every other possession, thus they foul a lot.

Game #2? Seriously? There's no satisfying people like you, so what is the point in trying to prove anything? There's nothing to prove because it's only GAME 2!

 

[TJ]

N.O. is way too efficient tonight. They are playing crisp, hitting shots, and not making careless fouls (or at least getting caught).

 

[TJ]

Check that: the officiating is AWFUL!!!!

 

[Chaplin]

I hate the crowd in USAC. Why are they always so quiet? Even when the game started, they didn't make any noise. Does anybody else find it strange that we have one of the quietest arenas in the entire league?
