Good game Grizzlies. Hopefully McD looks at how an old Zach Randolph decimated us and make neccessary changes this offseason

Go sprain your ankle and then try some jump shots.


I guarantee I won't miss wide open shots

I hope Hornacek learns from these last few games that it doesn't matter how much a player wants to play, if he's not able to play at 100% then you man up and sit his ass.

Three by Kieff (again) was poor given we were down 4 with 21 seconds to go. If you wanted a bench guy to jack a three, at least bring in Green. Better still, take the 2 and foul.

All in all, a valiant effort by an inexperienced young team. We'll regroup and come back stronger next year.

What are our options for PF? If we give Bledsoe a max and PJ a contract, I don't think we will have enough for another max or potential contract right?

Great season Suns! Not mad at all. I expected a win tonight but oh well. Time to think about the offseason.

His ankle had nothing to do with that airball he threw up. I understand missing layups but shots? C'mon. Nobody talks about how bad a 3 point shooter he's been this month and end of march. Just admit you're struggling. Don't blame it on the ankle.


Lol. You understand missed layups, but not missed shots on a bum ankle. His ankle was purple a few days ago. It's absolutely about the ankle. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

LeBron, Bosh, Dirk, or Melo. Yes we will have plenty for another max level contract.

Hate to be pessimistic, but the Suns didn't show me one time this season they could figure out how to beat the Grizzlies. I am not the least surprised we lost to them tonight.

Hmm, thought I saw some numbers out there that showed otherwise. But I may be wrong.

C'mon on man his ankle had nothing to do with his performance tonight. He played okay tonight. "Playing on one foot." Stupidest think I heard all night everytime he scored. Shut up.

Rest Dragic. Start Bledsoe/Green and give Archie backup minutes. Plumlee has earned his starting minutes. Let Len play backup. Archie and Len have not earned starter minutes yet.

We should have picked up Lou,and Zach would have tried to take a swing at him. :lol:

Alright League you've owed us a top three pick since the ATL pick, make it happen.

Just rest all the starters. Play me on a bummy ankle. Set me up and I'll make a wide open shot. :)

Count DIRK out so that leaves LeBron, Bosh and Melo.

Great season to bad we couldn't make playoffs.
Trade deadline! JK

I'm kind of shocked that Jeff had markieff Morris take the last two clutch shots off a timeout.
First Dallas now Memphis. Maybe he knows more obviously but Gerald green is the man in those situations

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.
