Suns @ Thunder 03-06-11

[sunsfan88]

Yes, guys you need to stop acting like its over as far ass playoffs go.. Nowhere near over.

We tied with memphis for losses (29) and they have 3 more wins than us because they've played more games.

We are better than memphis and we are better than portland, and denver, and utah, and NO.

Are you kidding me? Memphis is way better than us. They have actually beat quality teams not to mention yesterday coming back a 18 pt deficit to beat Dallas who was the NBA's hottest team. Not to mention they dont even have Gay and yet their so good. They dominated the series with us too.

Portland also same story. We'd get swept in a series with them. Alridge would average at least 50. They also dominated our season series.

Denver is very young & talented. Their like OKC. Their way better than the Suns will ever be.

NO would beat us in a series cause we have no answer for Chris Paul or David West. Assuming they stay healthy, there's no way we're better than them.

really weird game by Gortat. 20 pts, 7 rbs, 4 as, 2 bs but also 3 ba and 9 for 18 fgm ... too many misses Marcin!!!

Weird???
I disagree. He played a really good game. A career high number of attempts, and minutes. Tried to more diversified kinds of throws. Missed only 2 of 8 layups. Missed 2/3 jumpshots and 3/4 lefthanded hooks. There are not easy throws. To be a better player, he must take more risk and he do it. You have to add 2 offensive fouls forced by Gortat as well

No Zibi, you don`t understand me. In some situations he could play better, two blocks on him were too easy. Also he missed two really easy shots - it was 8 pts which could bring PHX home. I don`t say that Gortat played bad or so. He just can use his abilities to play better in some situations when he looks a little bit distracted.
What was funny - he got two tough shots and then he was twice blocked. I`m not telling that he play crappy game - I just want his improvement.

Well,I agree that wasn't his best, but i guess it was because of wearing up rather then distraction.
BTW
Wha's your location?

So pissed off.

14 free throws for us and they got 47.. FORTY ****ING SEVEN!! Lots of bull **** calls on the refs..

No excuse though. Carter made us and broke us.. Steve.. STOP with those stupid ass running floater 3's.. You haven't been clutch since 07 and those shots you used to hit against Dallas and San Antonio are over.

IMO the refs handed the game to OKC, the suns managed to beat the refs AND OKC in this game but a couple of stupid plays managed to help the Suns beat themselves..

Last season, Nash with the 5th leading clutch scorer in the league. This season, he currently has a higher clutch FG% than guys like Billups or Bryant. Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.

But currently he's showing the fatigue and injuries that you'd expect from any 38 year old (especially Point Guard) as the season wears on. That's the problem.

Luckily, it looks like Aaron Brooks is the best person to cover for Steve and step into his role, as long as his leg injury heals.

Wow I guess Suns really were screwed by the refs.
