go suns!

 

[Stout]

I saw that we came back and made a game of it against the Nugs the other night. That's great and all, and I know we had back-to-backers, and I know they're a bad matchup for us, but we've got to be able to win that game. Any observations about the game for someone who didn't get to watch?

Suns have lost to the Wolves twice already this season....

Now makes you wonder how the Suns should be sitting on the standings if they didnt "give away" those games.


They HAVE to win this.

Pre-Shaq. Al Jefferson ate up the Suns interior.

This will not happen tonight. Al Jefferson will probably get his (dude is a beast) but the TWolves won't manhandle the Suns this time around.

 

[nashman]

w/ out Shaq was the key to those close wins they got. Suns will handle them tonight
Suns 118
Wolves 95

We win this one by 15. With Jefferson only getting 20/10. (I did say only 20/10 lol) They won't get enough scoring from the rest of the team.

 

[Phade]

we need to win this game by at least 40.. especially with 3 days rest.

 

[Kody Rumin]

Jefferson hasn't been so impressive the last few games. I think Minnesota realizes that losing right now will benefit them more than winning. This will be an easy Phoenix win.

 

[TheHopToad]

The only thing that could slow down the Suns tonight is that Ron Garretson is the lead referee.

Suns 122
T-Pups 103

 

[jbeecham]

I'll be at the game tonight so hopefully we get some revenge on the TWolves.

we're an older team playing it's 4th game in 5 nights, back to back, down one starter (Hill) and then down another when Raja was ridiculously ejected in the third and "we've got to be able to win that game"? Stout, i love ya brother, but me thinks your expectations are just a tad high for this team. They ain't the 72 win Bulls.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Lets see how al jefferson does now that we have shaq and amare helping to defend the basket , I think the suns should win this one pretty easily but the suns can play down to the other teams lvl sometimes, but hopefully the suns come out on top

[LV-Suns]

Very nice start

3s are falling.

 

[Phade]

i love it when bell is hot..

 

[Cheesebeef]

even with homecourt, I want no part of Utah. Man, we gotta sweep the rest of the season. Yeah, I said it. We get the 3 seed and I think we go to the Finals. We get the 5 and there's a good chance we're out in the first. Ugh.

Love the start tonight! Spurs already lost, Lakers up next. Come on Mavs!

 

[Phade]
