Gortat is 6.1 since trade

And yet, we still start Dopez...

Frye has only the fourth best rebounding rate behind:

1) Gortat
2) Warrick
3) Fropez

But Frye plays by far the most minutes among the bigs.

Rebounding numbers don't really matter to me. It's if you box out your man or not. Frye + Lopez do a good job of that, and let the wing players like Carter and Hill to get the rebounds. Gortat is the only big man on the team that actually aggressively goes for every rebound.

Have to win these games. Portland keeps on chugging along

True. It's hard to make a comparison this year because of the lineups have been so inconsistent (Turk at the 4, Warrick at the 5, Siler, Barron, etc).

But last year the team had by far its best rebounding rate when Fropez was on the court even though his individual numbers weren't special. I think that was in part because he boxes out so well, and in part because Frye was his sub, and Lopez gets a lot more offensive rebounds since Frye camps out at the 3-point line. Both Frye and Lopez box out on defense pretty well.

What we need is a big who goes after the ball to pair with FRye or Lopez - someone bigger than Grant Hill.

Speaking of big men, I'm interested to see how we do against a team with decent frontline. I think McGee and Blatche may feast on us

Our one game in Washington and I'm gonna need to take my dog to the vet after work, so I won't be home til the game's about to start..too late to get into the city and get tickets

Nick Young has been playing out of his mind recently. The Wiz have the size advantage over us with their frontcourt, and they've won I think 4 straight at home.

Still the Wizards are pretty horrible, and this is an absolute must win for us.

We are currently 9th in the West right now, and Houston and Memphis are facing each other right now, so it's a win/win situation for us no matter the outcome.

Got to keep this streak alive. Let's go Suns!

let´s go suns, need to keep this streak alive..

Interesting. Lewis, Carter, Gortat and Pietrus all meet again.

Trap game, the Wiz have a few guys who could have big nights. Still think the Suns pull out a win though...

After what happened in the Cavs game, the Suns better not ever take their foot off the pedal. Play hard for 48 minutes.

Wiz are good at home. We gotta show up today or else we're going to get embarrassed.

yeah.. 1 game better than us.

but they're 0-20 on road

suns will win... but john wall will expose nash defense and have a career night, and mcgee will poster lopez

Did you watch our last game against them? Nash had himself a perfect game. Perfect. Game.
