I'd give my left nut to see Childress get the start and drop 30/6 with a bunch of steals on these guys.

[swe_suns]

Look at the players they were missing last night

Ariza
Kaman
Gordon
Landry
Okafor

and yet they almost came away with the W at LA.

Man that Hornets team is so depleted.

Where is the PHXSuns85 guy? When he started the GD threads we were on that winning streak plus he had some nice good charm pics too

[TASTIC]

Must win. This Hornets team are scrappers, and seem to be full of guys who have MASSIVE games vs us, ie Landry, Jason Smith and Vazquez...So no slow starts and put them away early. Hopefully Gordon doesn't decide to come out and make this his first game back

[RunDogGun]

Does this mean Morris is still out? nev, I would love to see Chilldress get the start, but I highly doubt he would, or get thirty points. He never shoots enough shots needed to get that many points. But I know he would be the cause of thirty points for our team somewhere, with extra possessions, tips and deflections.

And I think Brown would love having Chilldress on the same squad, because Chilldress doesn't shoot unless he knows he has a good shot, and will Give Brown tons of more chances to launch.

If Warrick gets minutes, I sure hope we run a zone, where he is at the top. It seems to be the only defensive strategy that Warrick can use his long arms positively on defense. Because NOH doesn't have a bunch of guys off the bench, they may play small often on us. If that happens, I wouldn't mind seeing Chilldress get some minutes at the four. Either him or Dudley.

But small ball against us has been tough this season.

[Saberestar]

Must win. Period.

[Revived]

I don't wanna see Warrick play at all. Is there a way that they can just make Frye play all 48 mins?

He is out sick with a cold. Thank you for your kind words I'll let him know.

Nuggets won earlier and looks like Rockets will hang on for a win. They both are 29-24 and I can't see the Suns catching those teams for a playoff spot. We'd need finish 11-4 to have 36-30 record and I Don't see that happening.

[MarcoPolo]

I also miss good luck charms today.

Go Suns !!
Play off spot nearly gone

[SunsRback4Good]

If Suns can finish with 12-3 the rest of way then we'll see playoffs

[MarcoPolo]

Indiana cought Houston. It looks like it going to be close end of 4th.

Poor Hornets coach had a rough year plus was hit on a ear with a peanut by a LA Clippers fan.
