We lost because:
- Kieff was mediocre
- Robinson had a career game
- Portland shot some miracle threes in the 3rd and 4th quarters
- The Suns didn't seal the game in the middle of the 4th quarter when they were up by 8
- Bledsoe refused to share the ball in the 4th quarter
- Frye was on the floor during the last POR posession

Regardless... go Suns.

I forgive Morris for being a non-factor as he apparently was quite sick yesterday. Surprised he even played, actually.

We gave up too many offensive rebounds, and had some silly turnovers like stepping out of bounds three times. But Mark was battling the flu, so I guess we expected that he would not be exactly what he has been, and Goran going out right after he started heating up, really hurt our progress to seal the game.
