Go Suns!

Cut this to four games!

Like I said in the other two threads, the goal is to have it down to two games or less after we play Dallas on the 5th!

Things change - we used to outrun even GS. Now, we have a big man they can't deal with and we should be able to beat them in the paint. I don't know who they'll put on Shaq. I expect Ellis to have a big game against us

According to the announcer, "Phoenix is very much in the playoff race."

Could you guys make a layup please?

Amundson needs to work on his offense in the offseason. BIG time.

lou has to be the worst offensive player in the nba. ive said this before but everytime he tries to lay up the ball im scared hes going to be miss. thats how bad of an offensive player he is.

you would think we used to outrun the Warriors, but all that keeps popping up in my mind was that year the Warriors beat the Mavericks. The Warriors absolutely outran the Suns out of the arena by scoring 45 pts in the first qtr.

I'm glad Richardson didn't 360 that thing.

That last play is a fine example of why you want players with quick reflexes.

JohnVancouver · Post #15 » by **JohnVancouver** » Mon Mar 16, 2009 1:39 am

I hope Stro gets some real minutes in this one
I really want to see him and Amundson in together.

GOOD game so far. They can do that without Nash with better defense and ensuing fastbreak chances. That's how you should play zone defense, with quick feet trapping them into difficult situations. Well done!

With less min. and less dribble, Nash could play a little better defense. That'll help a lot.

Dragic has made some serious progress already.

Anyone else think Gentry has a "random" button that he uses to choose lineups?

FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED the big fella
