Warriors at Suns

[FArting]

Final game before the All Star break

Keys to a Suns victory

1.2nd chance points Last time we played them they dominated us on the boards.

2.Defense 3rd quarter Warriors were shooting lights out.

 

[Proteus]

Wow. An airballed freethrow by Dudley.

 

[Proteus]

Suns playing like garbage in the 1st quarter.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 39-22 after the 1st quarter. Suns were down by as many as 19 points.

Pathetic basketball from the Suns.

 

[Mainstreet]

It looks like Nash got a haircut. I can't help but think about the biblical story of Samson and Delilah. Perhaps Nash should keep his hair long.

Hmmm. How long was Nash's hair in his mvp seasons?

 

[Mainstreet]

I can't say for sure but I remember Nash used to play his best with his hair swaying back and forth.

 

[Proteus]

The Suns bench is a lot better than the starters today.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nash is having a bad game thus far. Maybe the Suns should have stuck with the bench.

Yah.

Dudley is the only Suns starter who has shown up.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 59-45 after the 2nd quarter. Suns were down by as many as 21 points.

Maybe the Suns bench should start the 3rd quarter.

Poor defense, poor shooting, and too many turnovers by the Suns. Otherwise things are ok.

 

[Mainstreet]

Even Robin Lopez outplayed Gortat. That is bad.

 

[Proteus]

Nash's free throw shooting is a bit off this year.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nash's free throw shooting is a bit off this year.

Yes. Also he seems uninterested in shooting the ball. There is something to be said for a balanced game instead of just looking for assists.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 83-79 after the 3rd quarter. A lot better play by the Suns in the 3rd quarter.

Nice steal by Hill and then the 3 pointer to beat the buzzer by Telfair.

 

[Proteus]

Robinson shutting down Gortat.

 

[Mainstreet]

Robinson shutting down Gortat.

Robinson should have been a Sun. As I recall the Suns had to give the pick to NY in the Q trade because his contract could not be insured. Still the Suns got Kurt Thomas.

 

[Proteus]

Wow. What a followup dunk by Frye.

 

[Proteus]

Geez. Suns lose 106-104.

Frye again chokes on a game winning/tying shot.

 

[Mainstreet]

Too bad, so sad. At least the lottery fans will be happy.

 

[Proteus]

Sigh. This team is so inconsistent.

And another long winning streak of the Suns ends as they had won 13 in a row against the Warriors at home.

If the team given the effort/played like they did in the 2nd half in the 1st half as well we'd have probably won this game comfortably.

Cheer up. It was an exciting game and the Suns may get more ping pong balls.

 

[Absolute Zero]

Suns down by 21, come back to lose by 2. Simply could not stop Ellis. Unbelievable fade away over Grant Hill with 1 second left for the win. Frye gets an open look 3 to win, misses. And way too many missed free throws by the Suns.

Also, had to put Grant Hill on Ellis for much of the night, which gave the Warriors a mismatch at small forward. So Wright was able to chip in 23 for GS.

I knew the Suns were going to lose when Rolo played 7 minutes without having a single foul.

I thought he did a good job. Gortat sucked in the 1st half (so did the other starters besides Dudley).
