If we had this refereeing in Phoenix the other night we'd have beat the Clippers by 20 plus points. The long time Phoenix fan in me is convinced the refs will bail the home team out late but we've had several 50/50 calls go our way in addition to a couple of flat out bad calls.

The Suns might be better off with Plumlee shooting 3's rather than Frye. :rolleyes:

I think Lopez would go off (lose his temper) if someone pushed the right button. Tucker would be that type of player.

I guess we didn't fool the Blazers with our 3 Point Guard lineup. Portland went on a 9-0 runs to end the quarter and we're down by 3. We could have been up.

As we all do, I like Jeff. I hope going extremely small doesn't set in. If I see Al McCoy on the court, I'll really worry. :D

Tucker, Frye, Plumlee and Dragic are a combined 6 for 25. Hard to win shooting like that and Goran is missing even his favorite shots.

Portland just went on a 9 - 0 run against Frye and Plumlee too, didn't they?

The Suns do not have the bigs to be consistent going large unless Plumlee and Frye instill confidence. I'd still like to give Len some minutes to experience the action for next season.

We haven't seen Goran miss shots like this since last year. Wonder if he is burned out or hurt.

He played all summer and then has had to carry the ball handling load for much of this season. He puts a lot of energy into every game, I'd suspect he's worn down a bit. He's still a competitor though so maybe he'll find a reserve.

The Suns are really a cast of guards. They rely on, Dragic, Bledsoe and Green. Plumlee and Markieff do their best. Tucker can vanish at times.

I am shocked he is not making any positive impact in this game...maybe he is burnt out emotionally. a -9 right now. i hope he comes out focused in the 4th

Funny stuff. Green passes it to himself off the backboard.

What an exciting stuff. Then he followed it up with a 3-point shot.

I am glad to see Randolph getting some time. I would like to see him in the rotation as backup Center while we are still playing to win.

Just noticed. Green has 30 points. He is a keeper.

such a shame we couldn't hold on to the Clippers game.
