Suns @ Nets 01-11-13

[Mainstreet]

It looks like the Suns are ready to assume a familiar position.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ann Meyers Drysdale wonders why the Suns are not taking the ball to the injured Williams. She should realize this is the Suns.

Watch, it gets worse.

 

[Mainstreet]

Williams is back. Miracles happen in Brooklyn. The referees are watching over the Nets like guardians.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Can someone explain that to me? Brown gets set up for a wide open three by Dragic but passes it up. Instead he takes it into a triple team and tries to put one up against a wall of trees. Insane.

I can hardly wait to see Marshall, Zeller, Johnson and Beasley enter the game at garbage time.

Well, Brown loves to pretend he is Kobe and likes to think he will hit spectacular shots as the clock winds down. None of this easy stuff. Brown plays in his own world.

 

[Mainstreet]

Has any team ever gone scoreless in a quarter? This is the Suns quest. Just think about the folks talking about it on ESPN.

 

[Mainstreet]

Scola messes up a shutout.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Cool. Apparently you can stand completely out of bounds and still call a timeout. Gentry had it right.

Steve

 

[SweetD]

I am done watching, this sucks, but at least I can look forward to see what pick the Suns get.

 

[Mainstreet]

I want to see our star draft pick play. Put in Marshall.

The refs keep the Nets in this game the whole time until they started playing better.

Whatever Blanks wants is what the Suns will get. An excellent talent evaluator I'm told.

I think I will be more excited over the # pick we get not the player, since there really is not one player I am like we need that guy.

 

[AzStevenCal]

The refs keep the Nets in this game the whole time until they started playing better.

And some of that was the refs too. Scola's foul problems for example. I think the only reason the refs were needed to bail out the Nets in the first place though was a lack of focus on Brooklyn's part. They're clearly the better team. We rarely get anyone's best effort, it's kind of embarrassing.

Steve

 

[AzStevenCal]

Reggie Evans crawls over Scola, pushing him to the ground and Scola fouls out on the call. Not surprised he gave the refs an earful.

Steve

 

[Mainstreet]

Marshall is in the game. I expect him to show off his shooting skills.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Not good news. Their starters are better than our starters. Their rotation players are better than our rotation players. AND, their sucky players are better than our sucky players. I think we only beat them in one category, we have MORE sucky players than they do.

Steve

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns lose by 20, 79-99.

That sums it up nicely. Makes me want to watch Brook Lopez on the post game show. As a Suns and Cardinals fan I am learning to be tough.

 

[Broseph]

Ref's were absolutely brutal tonight.

This.

They had 22 free throws... in the first half.

 

[BC867]

I was busy tonight and didn't catch any of the game. Thanks for bringing me up-to-date (I think).

Oh well, onward and downward.
