whats that supposed to mean?

this 3 point shooting is ridiculous. We're doing everything right and still can't grab a lead.

has anyone ever heard an explanation to PJ always sits durant for so long in the 2ndQ. Apart from the PJ is a **** coach explanation?

At least they competed tongiht. The rest of this god aweful season could have become unbearable if they'd have rolled over. Didn't look so good early, but they battled. No one's going to stay with the Suns if they shoot 15-21 from three.

- K Durant has got to gain at least 15 lbs of upper body strength or else be demoted to a role player. Nothing but a shooter. He sure isn't playing any defense. His rotations on the zone are no existent. He's just not strong enough, athletic enough or interested enough. He's literally pushed around by every one who guards him. Having said that, I'm also wondering when this SG experiment is going to be over. It's not working.

- J Petro looks like a guy who wants a job. He played with courage against Shaq. And he's starting to consistently find his shot inside the offense. That was a great pass he made to N Collison. And didn't anyone else notice A Stoudemire getting out of the way on that monster throw down in the second half? Nice.

- J Green looked great. He looked for his shot. His left hand looked natural. A couple of seriously stupid turnovers, but the sprint back for the block made up for one of them.

- D Wilkins played selfish. Just about single handedly killed off the Sonics' esprit de corp. I'm glad PJ wouldn't put him back in & went with both L Ridnour & E Watson instead. I'm no longer thinking this guy is worth keeping as the Sonics' 8th guy. I'm now for picking a SG/SF with that Phoenix pick for that spot. D Wilkins was absolute poison out there.

- N Collison is solid.

- Best game L Ridnour had in a while. I just wish he'd visit the Wizard of Oz for some courage.

During the game Kevin Colabro said it was a "sprained pinky finger". Seriously. Ya, right. If you ask me it was sprained defense. As in sit your butt on the bench & watch some guys that are going to put out some effort. That'd be N Collison, J Petro & J Green.

Couldn't watch the game, had one of my own. No Gelabale tonight?

No. Those minutes were wasted on D Wikins.

No minutes for M Sene either. That guy needs to play.

Ugh.

They just don't get it, do they?

What's the point of bringing these guys up to have them rot on the bench?

from the TNT:

Mickael Gelabale suffered a right knee sprain in the Denver game and did not play against Phoenix. Gelabale will be re-evaluated today, and is expected to miss this weekend
