Re: Suns at Nuggets
Nuggets up 17 with 3 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.
Randolph has looked good for once, Arthur & Chandler playing great when in.
Nate hit with tech for getting in Dragic's face.

Re: Suns at Nuggets
Good first half. Apparently this was the first time Phoenix has trailed by 20 all season. You still get the feeling they're gonna hang around til the end though.

Re: Suns at Nuggets
Agreed with RRFB, this is one of those leads that just kind of sneak up on you, it does not feel like the Nuggets are dominating so much as they were just getting enough stops thrown in on defense to build the lead. If the Suns can figure it out the game can end up close.

Re: Suns at Nuggets
Suns fought it back down to 10, Nuggets are now back up 12 thanks to Lawson.
I will say the Suns keep trying, the Nuggets just cannot seem to put them away nor drive keep the lead up when they start to pull away.

Andre Miller should be DNP'ed against teams that can shoot 3s seriously.

Re: Suns at Nuggets
I cannot believe the Nuggets have allowed them to tie it up, this is ridiculous. 26-9 run is terrible defense.

Re: Suns at Nuggets
Tonight's loss is 100% on Shaw.
His rotation and waste of timeouts was ridiculous.
Also Ty shouldn't have played tonight.

agreed, not to mention I do not know what he said at half time but the team came out looking deflated and looking like crap. I don't care how much Shaw wants everybody to shoot jumpshots, this team is an attacking team, if they settle for jumpshots they lose, if they do not hustle on defense they lose, and if you have your worst defenders on the court for most of the 4th you are going to **** lose.
I disagree about Ty, Ty looked good in the 1st quarter, but being sick his minutes should have been limited, by the 4th quarter he looked terrible.
also where was Faried, the team is lacking energy, so you refuse to play your instant energy guy, while the worse defender in Hickson is giving all the minutes he can handle?

Re: Suns at Nuggets
Rebel, comepletely agree on the 4th quarter. Ty wanted to gut it out, literally, which was good in terms of a morale boost and something surprising for the team -but anyone who's been dehydrated should have minutes limited. Even if he got over whatever it was his body only had x number of minutes compared to a normal night.

Re: Suns at Nuggets
I'm kind of done with Foye.
He doesn't inspire with his play, he plays to a decent level but then tapers off......
Get me some Rip Hamilton, please.

Re: Suns at Nuggets
The only consistency from this team is on the defensive end -- where every single one of them is **** awful.
Shaw's post-game conference was pretty interesting if you could bear to listen. He tried to take all the blame, said he badly mismanaged the game. Also called a few guys out for constantly crying to the refs.

Well.....I mean, did this team change or did we lose all of our defensive anchors through free agency....

Gallo is out, we have no one to protect the paint, Miller's defense has somehow gotten worse, Foye and Robinson are both bad defenders, Hickson is possibly the worst defender on the team yet seems to always be on the court and playing center. This team depends on Mcgee to block shots, and Gallo & Chandler to protect the perimeter, without them there is going to be trouble.

Idk would you be in favor of Mozzy playing C in the 4th quarter, and Fournier playing SG ....makes more sense than Foye and Hickson

I would try anything at this point, I personally do not understand why Mozgov is not on the court more, it seems like he has 1 or 2 less than great games and his minutes are cut, meanwhile the Nuggets are open season for bigs. Fournier I do not know that he would be much better then Foye, but he is worth a shot.

He may be hungrier than Foye..
