Suns V. Lakers Game Thread

[jagu]

The red didn't bother to look where that ball bounced.

Obviously, it was a Laker that touched it. They've been getting the calls as usual. Not only are they overpaid but the refs are on their knees as well.

 

[Mainstreet]

I wish the Suns hadn't taken out Tucker. He was about to take the peace out of Peace... not that there is any in him.

 

[jagu]

Michael Beasley has zero defensive instincts.

 

[95pro]

Wow we had the steal but Beasley got hit and no foul?? Wow

 

[95pro]

If anything the refs stunted the suns run. I'm pulling the ref card cause it's straight BS.

 

[Phrazbit]

Man a win over the Lakers would be sweet... Tucker needs way more PT. Even when Sleazley's getting his on offense the team is still way better without him. He stifles the offense of teammates and he is free points for the opposition on D. (a -18 so far tonight!)

Like that we are hanging in though. If our 2nd unit has some of their 2nd half magic in them tonight it should be a nail biter. Lakers bench is terrible.

Gortat is not playing strong. It's becoming more and more common.

I agree. I loved that feistiness, beside it probably would have taken mwp out of the game.

Seems like he does this when the other guys is physically stronger than him.

I try really hard to not complain about officiating, but this is ridiculous.

 

[Mainstreet]

Yep. Peace was about to go completely off. Tucker and O'Neal, I liked their willingness to prove it is better to give that receive... the Suns needf some players with attitudes.

 

[jagu]

This is why I never find it that exhilarating to watch bball as much as it is to play it. The refs are biased.

 

[Mainstreet]

Seems like he does this when the other guys is physically stronger than him.

If so, then he becomes trade bait. I wonder what the Thunder have to give up. They could use a center.

 

[elindholm]

No. Buy low, sell high. If the Suns are going to trade Gortat, they need to do it when he looks awesome, not when he looks mediocre.

 

[Mainstreet]

I wonder when the Suns will put in Zeller to rough up Howard.

Seriously the Suns need a another physical big man.

 

[Mainstreet]

No. Buy low, sell high. If the Suns are going to trade Gortat, they need to do it when he looks awesome, not when he looks mediocre.

However, his stock is crashing and I'm not buying although I agree with your philosophy.

 

[Broseph]

won't win many games if you can't make shots.

 

[Mainstreet]

I think Eddie Johnson thinks his entire audience is young fellows as he enters his continual teaching mode.

 

[Broseph]

Gortat all the sudden becomes horrible when he plays against Dwight Howard.

 

[Broseph]

That was a horrible call...

 

[jagu]

Gortat all the sudden becomes horrible when he plays against Dwight Howard.

Maybe because he's Dwight Howard?

 

[Mainstreet]

I want to see Tucker guarding Peace again.

 

[Broseph]

Party at my house when Artest and Kobe retire.

 

[Mainstreet]

Here goes Eddie Johnson again with the young players tutoring mode. Please just stop it.

 

[Broseph]

Maybe because he's Dwight Howard?

Yeah but to render him completely incapable of being a professional basketball player?
