In all fairness though, the guards have been a bit lazy on the defensive end as well.

At least Bayless isn't on the Grizzlies anymore... he always gave the Suns fits for some reason.

Oh great, NBA Game Time loaded some new game break highlights. I wanted to see 4 month old clips of the Heat against the Lakers on Xmas day.

Offensive rebounds and second chance points. Killer every time.

Also... why couldn't EJ finish out the season... They really want to make us suffer through DRYsdale again?

Hey Suns, if you're going to sit around stroking your cocks on defensive rebounding opportunities, you don't deserve my viewership.

They don't HAVE any. It's ZAPPED. That's what happens when you waste all your time and energy blowing leads in winnable games.

I feared a lethargic, worthless effort tonight leading to a blowout. Looks like it's gonna happen. Hopefully things change but you can read the body language.

WHY WOULD YOU GO AND DOUBLE MARC GASOL AT THE THREE POINT LINE, LEAVING MIKE MILLER OPEN.

Might have been a bit of a flop there, which is a bad sign if we're already starting to try and look to the refs to bail us out.

Really wish Shavlik got a bunch of playing time in the past two disappointments... Seems like he helps change the identity of the team, and makes them play a bit tougher, and with more hustle.

Kieff just looks like a man amongst boys against opposition benches. If he starts next season I see a Milsap-esque improvement in his game.

Where are all the folks who said that I was crazy when I said that this team didn't play with any heart against Dallas and that it was BS that they were "devastated" with the loss?

In order to be devastated by a loss, you should have actually came in and played hard.

Gasol with usual Spanish flop.

I really could give two **** about army people coming back... It's not like they are 'defending' the country. No one's forced them to join the military... I don't feel bad for any of them, they chose to fight a rich man's 'war'.

Then again... that was better than having to listen to DRYsdale.
