man the clips are deep. their line up is so athletic. the suns should try to control the glass especially with kaman and the size and athletecism of the clips. I think the suns needs to come out and protect home court and keep the clips off balanced.

[dantian]

I fear they'd play their only Nash-killer in Blake.

[RaisingArizona]

lol, that's their starting 5?

[GHillDrnksSpryt]

the clippers are a good coach away from being pretty good especially when blake griffin plays next year.

I'd say they are a good coach and a Baron Davis trade away from being a good team

But yeah, I wanna see them with Blake next year.

I think we should be able to take care of these guys pretty easily. Camby was a big Suns killer and since he is gone I think Robin Lopez and Amare can handle Kaman and Gooden. Overall we have a better guy at every starting position except for center (Kaman>Lopez). Again, just need to come out with the right mindset and handle business like usual. Hit Amare early and often, and have J-Rich roam the court. I think we might not just be seeing a "hot" J-Rich, but actually he is playing differently than before by not settling for threes and contested jump shots. Instead I see him attacking the rim, which expands his game exponentially. Our bench has been pretty rusty lately, I hope someone can get it going off the bench (offensively).

[Miklo]

Kaman will give Amar'e a bit of a hard time though and we'll have trouble on the boards..I agree though, without Camby I give us the win

[hunterxaz]

It's unfortunate that Blake got hurt, I wonder if he'll be any good in the NBA? Same with Oden, still waiting to see him have a full season. As far as I'm concerned, the jury is still out on these two guys.

I like watching Baron Davis play, so this should be a good game. Think the Suns will win if they don't get complacent and think that "Oh, these are just the Clippers, let's let our starters rest and put in Clark and Griffin." We must play as if we're playing the Lakers, Mavericks, etc. Esp. with the Spurs on Sunday. I'd rather lose that game than this game.

Now more than ever, every game matters -- esp. when we're trying to get homecourt in the playoffs.

How do you take any chance to bag on Earl Clark.

You obviously have never played basketball in your life competitively for a team. It's obvious what Clark is doing. He's nervous as ****. He's settling for jump shots he's trying to overshoot them he's slowing down his motion it's obvious he's not comfortable because he's a rookie.

YOu think he'll suck but you have no clue that he will be a great defender in this league a good passer and once he gets the jumper down and starts attacking the basket he'll be not a good but great player.

Griffin you're right on. he's bad.


But not Clark. You just bag on him

[hoopnow]

The jury is still out on Steve Blake or Blake Griffin? Huge difference there.

[hunterxaz]

Clark is bad, too. He hasn't shown that he's good. Lay off dude. When he has a good game, I will concede. It's not like he HAS had a good game, and I just shat all over him. I don't think Clark WILL suck, I think he sucks NOW. Rookie jitters are over after he's played in 40 games with 10mpg. In the future, he may be a roleplayer, but it's also just as likely that he won't even be in the NBA -- unless something changes.

Re: Blake -- I mean Blake Griffin.

[grumpysaddle]

hunter... its not that you can't speak badly about him. its just that you do it so often that it seems you don't post unless you find a way to sneak a jab in at EC. people understand your dislike of his play so far, so posting more and more about it is just going to annoy people more.

[hoopnow]

Re: Blake -- I mean Blake Griffin.

Phew.

First post, here we go =)

This game is much like the Portland game right before the ASB. As our team was looking forward to the ASB, I bet they can't wait to play the Spurs on Sunday on ABC. I just hope we take the game seriously and win our 11th óf the last 13 games.

Must win!!! Suns by 40! Amare gets 60! Dragic goes for a trip dub!

[Mr. Sun]

Predicting Frye will go nuts from the 3.

[BVPN]

I was playing Association mode on 2k10 and the Suns just won the 2010 championship! (I was playing the Wolves). Not sure what that means for the real Suns, but I think we got this tonight

[JohnVancouver]

blacked out on League pass - bastards

because it's available on FSA?

I don't get it
