WE GOTTA STAY HOTT

Likely the last game of Amare in Suns uniform. Let's end an era with a bang and start sucking and rebuilding for next 10 years! Go Go Go!

Good thing I'll be at Amare's last game....

Go suns.

Amare isn't going anywhere folks. Stop worrying he is here to stay.

Prediction: Suns 105 Blazers 102

The Blazers are on a B2B and are missing Roy, Oden, Pryzbilla, etc...don't see how the Suns can lose this one.

Suns lose by 42. Amare doesn't care anymore. Richardson drinks before the game. Nash moves to Canada. Dragic scores 63, shooting a sizzling 21-24 from three.

Yeah without Roy Oden and Pryzbilla we should win this one by at least 10. Go suns!

Hill might sit out with a lower back bruise.

Sweet, our chances have just increased.

Start Duds.

Probably not the popular idea, but I wish we would give one start to Clark just to see if he plays better with our starting unit. Dudley started a game couple weeks ago and dropped a double double against the bobcats. Lopez has been a surprise ever since he got the start.

Let's do it I say...we may not toy with the rotation heading into the trade deadline though, I dunno.

Good idea. Let's see how Clark plays next to Nash, Amare, Lopez.

I would give Clark a start. See what he can do against their best scorer out there. This is a game we should win with no Oden no Roy no Outlaw. Don't let us down Suns. These are usually the games you screw up.

No way in hell should we start Clark. You guys are out of your ever-living minds. Start Dudley. We're trying to win. Not experiment.

This isn't a game we should screw around with, it's not ok to lose because Clark started and made his ever-persistent "rookie mistakes" and we can just wash our hands of it and say "It's ok, at least we're developing him."

WE'RE TRYING TO WIN GUYS.

Lol. Starting Clark isn't going to damage the team. If the Suns are playing bad, then take him out. It's that simple. Suns haven't lost to the Blazers at home since Nash got here, so I like our chances. Especially when they are missing half of their roster.
The Pros outweigh the Cons Hunter, I'd start Clark.

It's a waste of time -- Clark has 0 chance of making an impact this season or the playoffs. Let him develop when we need him to. Giving him minutes when we're trying to ride a 5-game winning streak into the All-Star game and compete in the playoffs is just a silly notion -- we've got like 10 or 11 guys ahead of him who are way better and have more upside/talent than him. Let him pay his rookie dues and ride the bench.

Alright lets go suns portland is on a back to back here and they lost last night to the thunder Durant is sick , So lets try and keep the winning streak going. Hoping to see big games with Amare and Lopez!!! GO SUNS BEAT THE BLAZERS.
