Re: WC Playoffs: (3) Suns vs. (6) Blazers
FWIW J-Rich sucked in the playoffs for the Warriors. His trey attempts spiked and his productivity dipped. I've never seen him play this well in the playoffs.

Please, Amar'e isn't going anywhere. He can get max money while playing on a championship contender for the team he's always played for. Why would he want to go elsewhere? Money can smooth over everything between him and our FO.
championship contender?
this is prolly his best chance in phoenix and they are NOT a championship contender this year.

Re: WC Playoffs: (3) Suns vs. (6) Blazers
I was not expecting another blowout. I expect a strong performance from Portland in game 4. But like I said at the beginning of the series, just too many injuries for Portland to overcome.

The only significant injury Portland faces is Roy. The Blazers got better since Oden and Pryz got injured because Camby is a better player.
The fact is a full strength Blazers team is no match for an aging Suns team.

Like we beat you with Roy last time too?
I am willing to say that Robin Lopez shotblocking and interior presence makes more of a difference than Roy in this series since guard play is the smallest issue for the Blazers.

I love Nash, something about him but not too fond of Amare, only because he tries to bully like KG.
overall this was a horrible game by the Blazers, too little too late to come back.

At this point, there isn't much difference impact wise between Robin and Brook. Robin is a better defender, Brook's the better scorer.

btw, erekose200 is probably the biggest Portland-hater on this website (besides Wiff). Just an fyi.

Re: WC Playoffs: (3) Suns vs. (6) Blazers
Camby better? I don't know about that. Oden was putting up similar numbers in less minutes. I think Oden is the superior player right now. Camby is a very good replacement though and will be a very good tutor for Oden.

I expected a strong performance from the Blazers in game 3.' I think the Blazers will come out fired up, try to make a last stand, get beat in a close game, and let the Suns out in 5.
I think the Suns deserve a lot of credit, they are playing as well as any Nash-led Suns team I can remember right now.

He's a much better shooter at home for some reason. He's so streaky as well. He looked really bad tonight. Luckily, we didn't need his points tonight though.
Frye clearly had zero confidence in his shot in the 4th quarter. Was super-hesitant and passed up just about every decent look. I liked that he did hit that one in garbage time. Seemed pretty pleased about it, too. Maybe that'll give him a more positive mental state for game 4. We lost game 1 partly because Frye couldn't hit a shot, and we'll need him again at some point.

Don't know where you're getting that. He's only played in the playoffs once before, his scoring and efficiency went up relative to the regular season. With that said this is hardly vintage JRich, obviously at no point in his career was he averaging 28PPG on 76% TS.
