Suns vs Spurs 7:30 ESPN FSN AZ

[Andrew]

I am disappointed in this team, one would think a team down 0-2 would come out a little stronger.

I think that last play to end the half was horrible, but we have had some solid spurts of defense.

I think the mentality of going down 0-3 will get to them and they come out full blast.

I highly disrespect teams that employ the hack-a-shaq. It is just wrong, Popazit needs to calm down...

 

[az1965]

worst. commenators. ever

These guys are awful.

 

[tobiazz]

I forgot about the game and just turned it on to see that the Spurs are on pace for 120, in Phoenix. Sad. I also saw Parker put up a teardrop while Amare made no attempt to stop him, even though he was not covering anyone else as far as I could see.

If the Suns lose, at least I can get more work done during the rest of the playoffs.

If the Suns don't make a run early in the half the series is over. D'Antoni better rip into the team because they are playing with ZERO passion.

idk..i'm a lakers fan so i'd hate to speak for a suns fan, but i think suns are a better team with marion than they are with shaq..am i right?

yes,we were a better team.
stats of win-losses tell it.

yes maybe we are tougher team with shaq but better team?no.
marion was helping a lot in scoring,steals,and wasnt bad blocker either.

last year we were in western finals,we were maybe the nba champions if it wasnt that stupid rule,but this year we re 0-2,losing by 14 in 3 rd game halftime,we ll expect a miracle.

werent we fighting against spurs better last year?

you are a great fan even i dont think the suns could come back from 3-0..

hack-a-shaq is great tactic and awesome for the nba.. i honestly think all teams should just start doing that throughout the entire game.. antonio m. has the ball? HACK EM..

BEN WALLACE HAS THE BALL? HACK THAT HUGE B-WORD..

you know how exciting games will be.. i can't wait..

 

[SO91]

Andrew, Lakers fans dealt with Hack-A-Shaq for years. Suck it up.

If he doesnt have that rep for strugg-A-ling from the line, he wouldnt be put there. Hack-A-Shaq is Shaq's problem to deal with and only he can address it.

 

[jandaman]

Funny some are saying worst commentators ever.. well maybe because Van Gundy is commenting based on WHAT HE WILL DO.

He is a coach and the plays that Spurs are running would be similar to what he would running... and you have to understand, to him he will be more critical on non-calls on the Spurs players.

Suns are just too undiscipline for other coaches to even respect...

[Andrew]

How about you play honest basketball? To me hack-a-shaq is dishonest...

 

[btimsah]

The commentators do not understand how it plays with our minds to continually lose to the Spurs. Not only that, but to continually get out-coached by them, out-played and out-lucked. That's why people are calling for Dantoni's job. He just seems to stand there and let the team get out coached and game planed without a care in the world - Come on guys, let's go. That seems to be his only "scheme" and in this situation it becomes oh so obvious.

 

[Andrew]

Oh and I was talking about the Suns in this game realizing if they don't get their asses in line they could be down 3 games. So I only assume they come out and TRY HARDER.

its not,if duncan was a horrible free throws shooter,you d be enjoying hack a duncan with us right now

Bruce Bowen is a horrible free throw shooter though.

I don't understand why we're not hacking him.

 

[95pro]

4sec left in the half. make some Defensive substitions. you had DJ, you have Skinner.

on the flip side....

stat could have atleast tried to change TP's angle on the last second tear drop. dont let him come straight on and make his shot.

 

[Yuma]

I've had two BIG SHAQ SIZED drinks watching this!!!

 

[azsouthendzone]

Larry Brown is looking at homes in the Phoenix area. Expect a press conference within a week after Mikey D gets sh-- boxed.

why don't you disrespect the guy who allows teams to do it. The thing that's wrong is shooting 30%.

Brown would be a good fit for the suns team. He woould bring a defensive mindset.

how is it dishonest? There's nothing against the rules about it. if you're hero could actually make them, they couldn't do it. The bearer of responsibility for that tactic is SHAQ, no one else.

It's not dishonest. All Shaq has to do is make them to make it go away. He just never has addresed it. Ever. He has 4 rings you know... he doesnt have to change!

 

[mojorizen7]

Looks to me like D'Antoni has LOST this team. Prob happened after game 1.
