Game 7: Portland (5-1) vs Phoenix (2-4)

[Beetlejuice]

Well, that was about as unexpected as Keith Richards outliving Michael

The test will come next game. If we do it twice in a row, it's becoming habit.

Lol we just may do it twice in a row... milwaukee is playing saturday vs Clippers(portland was @ lakers) at 10:30pm and sunday at phoenix at 8:00 so they have 2,5h less rest than portland.

Deja vu inc

Hmmmmm ... If I didn't know better I'd say the league has rigged the sked to favour the Suns.


But I know better ....

honestly as soon as the Suns drafted him I was thinking immediate bust. He has already surprised me completely, his IQ is a lot higher than I imagined.

Me too. I was very skeptical of his game; I guess that was because I had never seen him play

Not to pour salt in old wounds, but if we kept Goran (and he played like he has now instead of before we traded him), we could have drafted both Morris and Marshon Brooks. We wouldn't have had to sign Telfair or Brown.

Uh..no. If we had Brooks here, we wouldn't have signed Telfair or Brown...

Sorry but Brooks>Dragic...

This was an awful game from my team, but that's not to discredit PHX's win at all. PHX fans, you should get your money back for us not showing up.

Which Brooks are you talking about? Marshon or Aaron?

I have been watching Goran lately since League Pass has been free, and he looks like the Goran we were growing to love. Spot minutes and playing decent in those minutes. And adding Marshon to that second unit instead of Brown would have made a world of difference. I would love to have seen a Goran, MBrooks, Hill, Morris, Lopez second unit, or if we start Hill a mix of Warrick and Chilly at the three spot.

We will hit our wall soon enough. February will be tough with a ton of back to backs, and we still haven't had our back to back to backs yet. The Lakers were fortunate to get theirs out of the way early when Bynum was out. That way if they played poorly, they can just regroup like they have.

Ours will come right when we are gelling and throw a monkey wrench in our system if Gentry doesn't figure out how to coach through it. Plus with our first b2b2b we are in three different cities each night. I think it is GS, Denver, then home, ouch!
