Game 27: Phoenix Suns (11-15) @ Golden State Warriors (24-1)

I just feel bad for people that actually pay to watch the Suns. You never know what team you will get out of them. It's embarrassing.

That's like me paying for Sunday Ticket to watch the Bears. I stopped paying after 2 of the 4 billing cycles because it wasn't worth it to keep paying.

At least you got ASU basketball. Maybe you should have watched their game tonight instead of this one. Some impressive wins by them this year.

Oh I've been watching them and have been happy. Regardless of what people saw of the final score they really did compete with Kentucky up until the last like 6 minutes of the game.

Utah keeps losing like us

Utah keeps losing like us

I saw that, as did Memphis and then Dallas got hammered tonight as well.

But I can't imagine people will end up happy in the long run if we end up as the 8th seed playing these guys for at least 4 games.

I pay for league pass to watch the Suns lol

And next the Suns get to play New Orleans, a team they've given 28.5% of the teams total wins to. I really hope I don't have to watch another game with Hornacek coaching and Price playing.

[bwgood77]

Well, we finished the matchup 2-2. Won a close matchup in the 1st quarter and hammered them by 15 and the 4th. I won't mention the margins of the two quarters they won.

[PackSuns]

Good foul Price!! At least somebody is showing heart.

If Hornacek isn't fired before Friday, I think he will be pretty quickly if we lose to New Orleans .

This Suns team is worse than I imagined. I thought they would be a .500 team this year and they look like one of the worst teams in basketball. The Bledsoe/Knight backcourt is awful. I think Knight was benched all fourth quarter against the Mavericks last game so I thought he would come to play tonight. Then the Suns come out and have one of the worst showings in franchise history.

It is like the Suns management said I want the opposite of Steve Nash. Let's get point guards that are inconsistent shooters, cannot pass, and are turnover prone. Bledsoe and Knight both make so many boneheaded plays it is unreal. But do not get me wrong. It is not just them. Everyone looks terrible and Hornacek should be fired.

I still think we can be .500 team end of the season.

Not as currently constructed. Some moves needs to be made (starting with the beheading of Hornacek and Longabardi).

[batsmasher]

I think we lost.

i watched until we were.....down 40. then i shut it off. somebody called me a "bandwagon fan" yesterday, but i just can't stand to watch my guys get scored on over and over and over, and we just don't know what to do. Bled couldn't buy a bucket the first quarter.....i feel like we could be really good at some point this season, and especially if we make some sort of trade, but......it's torture. i wish we could just.....have a lightbulb moment, and get to our potential. we're out of sorts.....it's not like i didn't expect Golden State to hammer us, but i KNEW they were going to hammer us. we should've been able to keep this one close. the ball movement's not great, the TO's are constant, and we have the firepower to go toe to toe with anybody. i don't know what we're gonna do.......damn, i'm so messed up over this. i hope these guys are back in the locker room, feeling humiliated, embarrassed, and/or mad.

Bledsoe is 6'1". Knight is 6'3".

Curry is 6'3". Thompson is 6'7'.

Game over before the opening tip.

[Mulhollanddrive]

Goodwin, Booker, Warren, Len have 4 of the best 6 FG% on our team.

I checked as they seem to do well whenever they get minutes, like tonight.

So yeah Hornaceck needs to go. I saw a lot of quit in the team tonight. Suns have talent, the coach just can't use it properly. For example, I would much rather have the Suns roster over the Mavs, yet the Mavs have pounded us. Calisile runs circles around Hornaceck, in the same way Walton ran circles around him tonight. I understand the Warriors have more talent and will be at us most nights, but there is no reason to ever be down +40 to them especially in the way it happened in this game.

Why was Telly being run off the court in the third quarter? They were literally running us off the court. Look at our roster, there are many weaknesses, but hustle/quickness should be an easy one to mask. Should have just gone Bledsoe, Knight, Warren, Tucker, Leuer in the 3rd.

Hornacek may need to go, but Carlisle imo is probably the best coach in the league. Walton out coaching Horny is kind of a ridiculous statement, because Walton could stay at home and the team likely would have played about as good.

Man, what an embarrassing loss. At my cousins in the Bay Area and it was not fun to see our team get demolished like that..

I even called mid-way second quarter that once the Warriors start on a run we will just give up without even trying to battle.

Also, I know Chandler is getting back up to speed but do you think it was a bad signing? He was pretty average.. not just for tonights game. Not sure even if our medical staff can get him up and running to play some what decent. The lobs that we're trying to put together.. is down right wtf?

Some odd reason I have a feeling that if Jeff was to be let go by the management team, whoever is the assistant goes SSOL with our squad. Remember when Porter was let go and Gentry came in? Those first two games we dropped like what, 140 a piece? Yes, I know the roster is completely different but it would be nice to see a different type of offense then what we're getting right now. The pieces just don't seem to fit the scheme we're trying to incorporate. Tough one to watch but onto the next one as always. Go Suns.
