Thanks for your insightful, and utterly useless commentary on the English vernacular.

Missed the first half due to Tivo error, had to watch the 2nd half later in the evening.

Sweet geebus - barnburner, as the old boys used to say

I really think Nash fouled Morrow before he got the shot off, then he grabbed his sack in desperation

"all ball" - nice one

Now let's go kill Boston ...... maybe

This is off topic but I thought you guys should know how bad I got screwed on this bet I took last night

I bet on deron williams to score 18 points or more last night

He's got 11 at half time

He WOULD NOT SHOOT THE BALL at all in the 2nd half. 18 assists I mean shoot it!

I lost a couple hundred so bad haha

Tried to make a few bills for my vegas spring break trip oh well.

Suns need to bring their A game to boston. I hope the 3 wings that boston tried to trade for (hill, duds, peaches) bomb away from 3 point land.

No poll yet?

My vote goes to Dudley. Amazing hands, got deflections, steals, played hard defence, rebounded as much as he could and just overall showed amazing hustle, especially in the 1st half.

It
ds why we love the guy - I'm always astounded when someone says "oh, he had 8 pts and 3 rebounds...." and dismisses his game. there's a lot more to what he brings than the stat sheet shows.

Give it to the warmachine. I'm surprised Frye isn't an option here

Added but ppl have to re-vote

Warrick gets an honourable mention from me too. He played very well in the first half. FInished well a couple of times on the break off turnovers, and he had a sick reverse windmill dunk in the 2nd quarter.

Warrick's defence and rebounding has improved this season as well, much like Frye's.

No pressure on Frye for the Pacers GW shot? Did you watch the game? He had a guy in his face, had to pumpfake, then put it up. Doesnt matter if they woulda went into double OT, its still a shot for the game. As with the Nets game, he had a good clear look at the rim. If they missed they still could have fouled. So that kind of negates your perspective. @ swe suns

Is Vince Carter the worst starting SG in the NBA? It could be a tie between him & Bogans from Chicago.

I LOVE that nobody knows who to vote for. 6 players in double figures, 4 off the bench...team high of 17 came off the bench. Median points was 10 (in contrast to 5.5 from the Knicks last night, for example)

4
5
7
8
10
10
13
14
16
17
starters

How do you prepare to defend that?

Of course it matters.

I don't think you understood what I meant. By no pressure I meant that regardless of whether he makes the shot or not it cannot be compared to a situation where you hit a buzzerbeater when you are down by a point or two.

Even though it wasn't a buzzerbeater against the Nets it was pretty much over if he missed that shot.

I'm not dissing Frye and I think that what he has done for the Suns this season is really impressive. I was only comparing the situation of the game-winner against the Pacers and the one against the Nets.

Frank Lee · Post #478 » by **Frank Lee** » Wed Mar 2, 2011 11:47 am

It should be noted, only Frye is allowed a 'comparison' of game winners... 8-)

I was trying to recall the last Suns game winner.... was it Barbasoso? So many of our games end with us losing by 7-8 after a mad scramble.... or with a slim lead and Nash going to line 2 or 3 times.

TheJohnWallShow · Post #479 » by **TheJohnWallShow** » Wed Mar 2, 2011 3:23 pm

Fair enough, im taking the Pacers shot IMO. He was actually being guarded. With the Nets game we were down by 2 and could have fouled, so they game would not have pretty much been over because there was a good amount of time left.

TheJohnWallShow · Post #480 » by **TheJohnWallShow** » Wed Mar 2, 2011 3:25 pm

I wanna say our last winner was this season against the Grizzlies.

Who gets the Gorilla of the Game?
