NO is gonna be in the 2nd game on back to back games (and the first one against GSW) so we shoudn't lose this one.

By the way, I hope Hill's injury doesn't be too bad. Obviously injuries are never good, but is better now than in playoff time.

I hope Hill is fine for this game...and he better be fine for the rest of the season...he went out against the Sonics, and Raja promptly played 42 minutes. C'mon Mike...Banks can play!

Well let Grant rest. MD should play banks and Skiiner more. It doesnt really help his trade value of he doesnt play. skinner deserves to play in more than 20 minutes in this game. It would be nice to see amare and shown not get outrebounded by west and chandler.

How bout playing some defense unlike last time.

Hornets are 6-1 in game 2 of back to back games. Home court may help the Suns in this one though. The last time these teams met the Hornets were on the 2nd game of a back to back. They had just played in Dallas the night before.

Yea I looked through those and didn't find anything solid, dude is gettin blocks every game and I can't find a single pic of him handin out a hard rejection. Ridiculous. I'll make due though, thanks.

Also, if anyone has fav pics of Stat slammin the rock I'll take those too. There are some good pics of him, too many to really choose from imo.

Has anyone seen the ESPN commercial that shows Nash and Stat watching Barkely and co. and Barkley says that Nash is the best PG in the game and could play with one hand tied behind his back. Then they ask who they best big man is and stat gives Nash this look like "now they're gonna talk about me" and they name off every big man except him. Then Barkley is like, if that Greg Oden kid wasn't injured, he'd be pretty good too. Had me crackin up after the Sonics game.

^^^Yeah I seen it, I thought it was pretty funny also. Imagine if Shawn was in that commercial. :rofl:

I bet Shawn is pretty pissed he ISN'T in that commercial.

I want someone to upload the Suns' "Sounds of the Season" infomercial spoof they did on NBATV where they were singing Christmas carols. Did anyone see that? It was freakin' hilarious.

From AZCentral:

Grant Hill sat out Friday's practice, recovering from a bruised tailbone suffered vs. the Lakers on Christmas Day.

"(Thursday) night it bothered him a little, but he'll be fine (Saturday)," D'Antoni said. "He takes a couple shots (to his body) every game . . . but he's fine."

Bruised tailbone? He must have had a visit from Never Fear.

Good to see he won't be out for long.

From the same article:

"Wide open is wide open," he said. "We don't take a whole lot of contested shots; we just haven't been able to consistently knock them down, but we will."

*cough* Raja *cough*
