Suns vs Lakers Nov.20

[TheKid_1]

Reality check. The Suns are nowhere near as good as their record, we are outclassed by a team that dont even play to their potential.

How exactly are we outclassed? outplayed perhaps?

 

[Black Jesus]

This loss is on Amare for complete lack of effort.

 

[Andrew]

[Cheesebeef]

here's my call - we're 15-13 after the X-Mas game.

 

[Black Jesus]

So if all of you think the Suns are going nowhere? Why consider yourself a fan? Because quite frankly I would think I would see more positive things coming from fans than them praising the Lakers and not the Suns...

sorry our favorite team the past 15 years hasnt been whatever team Shaq is on, so we know when a team has some negative times to come...

Dude, there is being a fan and then there is being delusional. Reality check- Suns are not even close to the Lakers.

so, we fattened up our record playing pathetic teams and in the first challenging stretch of the season, we get our asses kicked in 3 of 4 games against playoff teams.

Just as was the case last year. That's why we made the trade for Shaq in the first place.

 

[Cheesebeef]

fans don't have to be complete delusional morons to be fans Andrew. They CAN actually see the reality of what they're team is for good or bad. Fans can also give credit where credit's due. Sycophants can't.

 

[Black Jesus]

Diaw can jump. Beat Ariza on a jump ball fairly easily.

agreed. I was saying the same thing last year and people thought I was nuts. Sadly (and stop me if you heard this before), this team limited it's highest potential and hamstrung itself for years when it wouldn't budge on the JJ extension.

This team will not be good until SarvKerr are gone.

 

[dodie53]

bench is on

 

[Griffin]

So with 4:30 to go and a 15 point deficit, Porter sits Nash and Amare. The Suns will get blown out, but Nash has played 35 minutes, without any rest in the second half until now. He has done that in the last few games. Now imagine if this game was actually close down the stretch, Nash would have played 40 minutes.

 

[Andrew]

...

 

[dodie53]

nash is still playing extended minutes,
where was the plan to cut his minutes that Kerr was talking about in the off season?

Agree completely. Suns should of built nucleus around 1. Amare/Nash (they go hand in hand and 2. Joe Johnson. Instead they went the Shawn Marion, Leandro Barbosa route.

With Nash, Joe and Amare you have 2 pure shooters, a versatility guy that can play 1-3 and the most athletic big in the league. You put a decent big bodied center, someone even as crappy as Kwame and a decent 3 with them and that team is DEADLY.

Thats just me thoguh, Joe Johnson was my favorite player by far, even considered puling an Andrew adn following him to Atlanta haha.

 

[Black Jesus]

whats with the repetitive "..." Andrew?

 

[Bayless2Budinger]

Amare miss 4-5 easy shots. Disappointing to see but hell make them next time.

Oh well

 

[LV-Suns]

...

Do you know why everyone worries too much by even being down by 2?

 

[Black Jesus]

seems as though the Dragic experiment is over, especially with Singletary getting the meaningful minutes. Great scouting there Kerr. Hes a poor mans Udrich, if that.

 

[Griffin]

This was a 10 point game with about 2:30 to go and our scrubs are on the floor. I've seen bigger leads overcome in shorter time.

 

[dodie53]

i'm going to pull an 'Andrew' when Nash leaves Phoenix for another team..

 

[Black Jesus]

why didnt amundson get any minutes tonight?

 

[Black Jesus]

piss poor suns, thanks for wasting my night.

 

[Ninjafish]

Porter is an idiot for not playing Amundson when it could have counted. He's just as bad as D'antoni with rotations or worse.

 

[Kablansky]

This is what the old timers would call a "shalacking"
