How about the foul shots? 17 to 5!!!

Just an all-around fantastic first half. Not perfect, but lovely in almost every way.

Nice to see Skinner playing 12 minutes in the first half, but guys, whats wrong with Amare? played only 8 minutes on the 1st half?

Oh i saw it, 3 fouls already on Amare...

It'll be interesting to see how the Suns come out in the 3rd quarter. In games like this, they usually come out very flat and sometimes let the other team back in the game.

Yeah, and all pretty weak, too. The first wasn't terrible, but it was a classic "hit a guy on a drive but don't affect the shot" foul, which always piss me off. The second was inexcusable. He was trying to double Iverson coming off a screen, but Iverson was too quick. Amare needed to recognize that and back off, especially because Iverson was moving away from the basket at the time. The third one was a lot like the first one, but it came within 2 minutes of Amare's return to the game. It's too bad, too, because Amare came out like a beast in the first quarter. He was scoring like it was going out of style. But when he came back in in the 2nd quarter, he looked a little out of sync. I'm hoping the Suns start the 3rd quarter going right back to Amare, so he gets right back in the flow of the game.

We need more Banks in the 2nd half on AI. LB just can't guard him. Banks really locked down. PLAY BANKS!!!!

The offensive rebounds are bothering me. We need to really get a body on these guys, Anthony especially.

I dont know if we can keep up the shooting, so defense is going to be key because the Nuggets will make a least a few pushes in the 2nd half. We can't fall asleep (like we always seem to after getting up a big lead). We need to set the tone early in the 2nd half just as we did in the 1st half. Get the ball to Amare and work from there.

Go Suns.

Imagine feeding Amare to the post, then shooters spread out the floor waiting for the pass once Amare double teamed. shooters are nash, bell, marion , hill or skinner ( mid range).. that would be awesome.

SICK dunk from the Matrix! Way to start the half!

GREAT team D to force the 24-second violation. Sweet block by Matrix.

Then a sweet pass from Amare to Matrix for the dunk! Marion ties his season-high!

Guys... The Suns are playing good defense...

Cash · Post #114 » by **Cash** » Tue Jan 8, 2008 3:34 am

Bell is CLANKING some easy jumpers. I don't know what's wrong with him, but he needs to get right.

Then K-Mart just throws Hill to the ground off the ball. Stupid play.

BS call on Amare.

This is one of the worst officiated games I've seen all season...

This is a key time we can't let them back into it

Sun Scorched · Post #118 » by **Sun Scorched** » Tue Jan 8, 2008 3:39 am

Melo is flopping worse than I have ever seen him...

Pathetic calls tonight.

Cash · Post #120 » by **Cash** » Tue Jan 8, 2008 3:40 am

The way Skinner and Diaw have been playing tonight, Diaw should be in & Skinner should be out. His D isn't really helping us, and his lack of O is limiting us. This isn't really the game for Skinner.
