Suns @ Knicks Game Thread

[Griffin]

Wow. Didn't expect a cakewalk, but neither did I expect this. We are getting blown out by a team that has only won 3 of 17 games.

 

[Proteus]

Why is Nash still in the game?

 

[Hat]

ugh i'm not even watching the game any more jesus guys way to show up vs your ex coach . Man I can't believe how bad were losing but if we somehow beat the cavs tomorrow it will make up for it but come on guys show a little bit more effort damn...

I had turn it off right now, it makes me so freakin' mad. I bet the guys were drinking and ****ing around late last night rather than focusing getting ready for the game.

OMFG one of the few Suns games I get to see on TV in NY and I get this ********. WTF!!!!

 

[Bufalay]

D'antoni is taking advantage of the little known fact that Amare is a horrible defender, much like Don Nelson was able to abuse Dirk.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 76-100 after the 3rd quarter. Knicks shooting 53% with 11/26 3 pointers.

Suns have committed 14 turnovers (Amare with 5).

Knicks have 11 offensive rebounds.

Just an overall display of basketball, even the offense went to crap in the 3rd quarter.

 

[Proteus]

The Knicks biggest lead in a game this year prior to this one was 17 points.

Who would have thought that winning five straight would be so hard. Third time the streak stops at four.

 

[Folster]

What a disgusting display of defense and all around effort.

 

[O]

This doesn't bode well for tomorrow night.

 

[dodie53]

cmon 100

This game and the upcoming stretch of really tough games could put a wrench into my 55-60 win prediction... might need to take that down to 50 wins after December is said and done.

 

[Proteus]

Whoda thought that our 100 points scored streak ends at hands of one of the worst defensive teams in the league, 3rd worst in field goal % at 49% and 5th worst in defensive efficency at 108.

 

[dodie53]

a lose.
and 99 pts only.
sheesh

 

[overseascardfan]

Absolutey embarrassing. NY is atrocious but holds us to under 100 and blows us out by 27, ridiculous. I could understand if this was LA, ORL or SA but not NY.

 

[Bufalay]

Everytime I've seen Tucker play over the past two years, I've been impressed. However, the coaches and everyone on this board seems pretty low on him.

I understand the criticism that he plays like a power forward in a shooting guard's body, but so did Q. Richardson and he's a fine NBA player. He's strong and tough inside and isn't that bad of a shooter or ball handler. I don't understand why he can't get any minutes.

 

[Bufalay]

I'm very glad I didn't buy tickets to this game. The Suns only come to town once a year, but I'm glad I didn't have to see that first-hand.

They made Nash shoot. We lacked energy, particularly Amare. Gentry did not have any adjustment. Well, refs were helping them too.

 

[joshstmarie]

Lou showed he was clearly only slightly below the kind of player david lee is.

Are you serious? Tucker has never played well. A few games ago he was downright embarassing.

Went to the game, we sucked. Every point was a wide open shot or dunk by the Knicks. Looked like a HS team out there. Nash is so awesome, he comes out 40 minutes before game time and works on his jumpshot, layups, free throws and no one else is out there. It was truly an experience!

We might fare better against the Nyets.
