The Tradition

Hill, Watson, West, and Miles have been officially ruled out for tonight.

We're gonna get torched by Dragic and Bledsoe tonight, Scola and Hibbert need another big night.

Hibbert to the locker room. Rolled his ankle.

Aaaaaaand there go our chances

Ian and Hill are bringing the hustle. We are playing good D but the Suns had a streak of not being able to miss 3 pointers.

This game sucks. Exactly like the Denver game, just getting blown out.

Price and Scola have been atrocious. Terrible.

Stuckey just went down. Just what we needed.

Just awful..... More injuries is what they need

Getting blown out sucks but the Suns were an awful matchup for us even when fully healthy. Tonight we only had one starter healthy and that starter got injured in the first 7 minutes of the game. So, being blown out is hardly a surprise.

Stil, we fought as much as we could. We withstood the Gerald Green outburst in the first quarter and we fought back. We just ran out of steam in the second quarter. Solomon Hill, Lavoy Allen and Ian Mahinmi had very nice games and that's great to see. Damjan Rudež had a one-handed dunk on the fastbreak as well which is something that I never expected to see.

So, yeah. I'm not gonna be mad or anything. We did all we could. The Suns are pretty good and we're too unlucky and injured at this point.

Even in lopsided losses at home you have to credit this team for how hard they are trying. It's 3rd-string talent out there, especially after the injuries. With that perspective, this team has been fun to watch. The development of Solomon Hill is enough silver lining for me thus far.
