We Remember, do you?

Goooo Phoenix, Let's do this Baby!!!!

5 days rest for our boys before they play the Lakers.

Lopez should get alot of playing time if Frye is suspended, that's probably a good thing though...

Yeah, Lopez should get some good amount of minutes if Frye is suspended for these game. The Suns get 5 days to rest so there should be no excuse if they come out slow and don't play their game. This is a huge game and if we win we split with the Lakers on the season.

i expect this thread to go for 1000+ posts. playoff atmosphere for sure!

I do except a good game, especially with the way the Suns are playing as of late. But what are the chances of LB/Dragic playing?

Kobe owns our asses. Let him do his thing and keep his teammates out of it. PHX 117 - LA 113.

I believe one of the keys is to keep Kobe at a normal level (around 28-30+ points, but under 40 points), but allowing few and minimal production from other players

Like recent years, let Kobe go off for 40+ points but contain other Laker players and Suns should win.

Prediction: Phx- 105 La- 99

It'll help if Amare gets Gasol or Bynum in foul trouble. Lets hope the Lakers don't feel like playing this game.

Yep. Let Kobe do whatever he wants. Stop everyone else. Especially Lamar Odom.

C'mon Suns!

So what's the over/under on pages this thread gets to before the game is even here?

That all depends if postwhore Kerrsed is playing

Props to Hill, NFear.... I wonder how his stats are comparing to other 37 yr olds.... I can't think of too many that were starting and contributing at that ripeness....Jabbar, Parrish, Stockton ...??

knowing our past history with david stern, hes going to suspend frye, nash, and jrich for being part of the melee from the pacers game. then hes going to claim he saw amare on tape step onto the court during the fight so he'll suspend amare as well.

as we know stern he will hand the game to the lakers either way.

I'm pretty excited about the Bynum Lopez match-up. Hope LB can play, and I hope Jason plays solid.

I hope Frye will be there so we can finally see what our full squad looks like. LB will be rusty as heck but it'll be so nice to see him back on the court(if he's healthy that is.....last time he came back his wrist was effed up and he couldn't shoot at all)

The Lakers aren't a bad team for LB to make his comeback against. He usually plays well against them.
