Suns have a chance to help their cause again by beating the Lakers. It would be more important to beat the Lakers, then add another loss in our column.

The Suns are hurting after the whooping by the Thunder. The Lakers have been loosing also, but they still have a bunch of talent and still could make the playoffs.

Both teams have 16 home games and 14 away games left.

Ouchie and I are going to this one to watch live in person... Thus we will get killed!

I know they've lost 2 out of their last 3 but I think they're 7 - 3 over their last 10 games as opposed to our 3 - 7. Unfortunately, they appear to be headed toward respectability. It would be nice if we could help halt that trend. Our best bet is to get every journalist to line up and interview Kobe and ask him nothing but questions about how great a teammate and player Dwight is.

I have a good feeling about this one.

I don't but that could be the Machaca Burrito I had for lunch.

Steve

Mmm. Machaca.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Mmm. Machaca.

Oh yeah. Machaca from any of the thousand plus family owned (non-chain) Mexican restaurants that are so conveniently placed all around the wider So Cal area.

La Perla..... Right off of Grand avenue in Glendale. Machaca is #10 on the menu. I still go there every time I come home.

God I love that place.

My brother-in-law swears by that place but I've never been.

If I had any sense I'd skip watching this game. I've watched every Suns game this season, even the ones I knew we had no chance in but I'm really worried about this one. We've been outscored by 54 points over the last 6 quarters and I just wonder if we have enough leadership to rebound from the last two games. Couple that with the trade rumors and the problems those often cause and the fact the Lakers need this game and want to erase their embarrassing defeat by us last week and I'm afraid this might go south early. Beasley won us the game last time, can he do it again?

They did seem to be piecing it together... until 4 games ago when Pau got hurt again.

Its really too bad the Bobcats suddenly remembered... they're the Bobcats and blew that lead or the Lakers would be on a 3 game skid.

 

[Phrazbit]

Didnt take long for Steve to have his first gaff.

"Long 2 for PJ Tucker!" As you can clearly hear the PA guy calling it a 3 and the ref had his hand in the air.

Grew up going to Sierra's in the Valley. Mmmm. Sadly I have heard and read that they were closing or are already closed.

And I really believe that loss would have been fatal.

Scola is on fire tonight, running away from his man on D, turning it over on back to back plays on offense. Killin it.

 

[Phrazbit]

Hey! Theres a play for Scola! Right on time to make me look like an *******.

 

[AzStevenCal]

I really hope he doesn't go back to doing that with regularity. Actually, he may have already gone back to it but I make a special effort not to focus on him any more.

Steve

 

[Phrazbit]

We are so pathetic on offense. No movement, horrible low percentage shots.

 

[desertdawg]

Need to get back in this game, the bench has really responded.

 

[Phrazbit]

Tucker came to play... cant say much for the rest of the team.

 

[desertdawg]

LOL they actually got Howard to set a pick there.

 

[Phrazbit]

I think someone got T'd up right as it went to commercial.

 

[Mainstreet]

I know O'Neal is disgusted he did not get a foul called underneath the basket.

 

[Mainstreet]

Horrible play (shot) by Dragic which leads to a Lakers basket before halftime.

 

[Phrazbit]

Dragic was awful that half.
