It sure seemed like he didn't learn from that move, later in the game he was back to black holing it. Honestly, I don't know what Gentry is doing putting both Telfair and Brown together. The guys that get stuck with those two must be pissed watching forced bricks after bricks. Well maybe not, at least they know they may have a chance to touch the ball if they rebound. :lol:


I meant shot selection was way better not accuracy :wink: With starting unit he wasnt dribbling 4 seconds in one squarefoot before launching an awful contested shot. He wasnt a complete black hole today ... and that itself is an huge improvement. Like i said it was just one game though, but after seeing him playing with our starting unit i can say there is still hope for him :D


He only touched the ball three times with that starting unit, and the back door cut he got from Nash (one of those three touches), Morris subbed in for Gortat. Either way he still forced things later in the game. The only shot I liked was that curl around the screen.

Hot potatoes!(im eating) You sir, are correct about that 3 touches thing + he did force things perhaps a bit too much later in the game. Slightly better game overall but it is true that starter story doesnt really apply here. Thanks for bursting my bubble :evil: :D

I had a couple brews in me but yelling at Lopez all night about spending less time reading comic books and more time trying to box out really got my section laughing. Brandon Jennings does not fit that system what so ever (Mill. Bucks) and having a system as free flowing as ours would greatly benefit him in my opinion. The older couple sitting next to me have been 10 year season ticket holders and chatting up with them about how $arver has ruined this franchise really brought a smile to my face cause it seems like people are finally catching on. He told me that $arver doesn't even sit court side anymore in the middle but to the right side behind the hoop with his kids since he doesn't want to be in the 'spotlight' anymore.

I was telling everyone that our rookie Morris is looking like R. Wallace 2.0 as games go by w/o the attitude. I like what I see out of the kid and having that Philly upbringing you can tell he doesn't backdown to nobody.


I'm glad youre a Suns fan that cares, but people were laughing at you because they thought you sounded like a moron, just so you know.



Let me rephrase on what I said earlier. I wasn't being obnoxious or belligerent since there were kids around our area. I had family and normal fans actually adding to what I was saying at Lopez as the night went on. So before you actually call someone a moron I thought you should know the facts. It's better then acting like a complete tool and yelling profanity at other stadiums around the NBA.

Heckling is an art. There is a fine line you walk.... especially in a crypt like the Suns arena.

I had 1/2 season season tickets 12-13 rows up, 2 yrs running.... during the 'Joel Kramer' yrs. Not one to tongue bite, I blistered him on regular occasion. But woops... had his wife and Adams' wife sitting a few seats down. Mrs. K actually told me once, that Joel didnt care too much my comments, though he found me funny.... 'like a clown' may be. I went easy on him after that... but no one else did. It was more directed at McLeod for playing him. Had an ongoing feud with the Gorilla too... but thats another story that ended in a confrontation at the under the basket exit one game...The original G.... hehe... was so mad at me he was ready to swing his big furry paw. But I couldnt hit a monkey. Know what I mean ?

Beer is good.


The Buse .... nice find JVC. Have him on my all time 'Tan' team. 79 was a fun yr. We had such likable guys. Lost to the champs once again. Became a fan of DJ that yr...rather anti-fan. Damn he was good. He would come out an hour early to shoot. We'd be there, securing down low seats before the ushers got on. Had two no shows we sat in all yr... on GA tickets ($5). We'd talk at DJ, and he'd drill practice J after J and subtly shoot us the finger, make squawking gestures with his hand, and give us a sneer-nod. His best comment, may be the only actual one was after dropping a practice bomb.. he said 'you'll see more of that'. I think he honored his word. He was an assassin.

What's the tan team, Frank?

DJ always seemed to me to be born to be a Celtic

Can't argue any of those but I would suggest Henry Finkel as a reserve?

I have a bizarre and borderline unhealthy fascination with Finkel, dating back to when i first ripped open the bubblegum pack and found his card staring up at me
