Game 49: Phoenix Suns (14-34) @ Dallas Mavericks (27-22)

4 pts over the last six minutes ... great offense

[Sunsss]

All of our 9 points in the 4th came from Kieff. What to think of that...

its scary that our only pg is archie goodwin of all people and he isn't even a pg

A commendable effort in vain. He'll have to actually start winning us gave if he wants to be traded.

• Played well for three quarters on a road game against a playoff team.
• Would have liked to have seen Len out there for more than just 15 minutes.
• Good showing by Chandler and decent game by Markieff; incase we're trying to show case these guys for a possible trade both guys increased their value tonight.
• Booker with a good all around game 19 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists. High turnovers and lots of misses in the second half though.
• No reason for Tucker to have to play 42 minutes, especially when he's not playing well.
• Not a bad defensive effort tonight, which is encouraging.
• Archibald Leopold Goodwin shooting 19% over the last three games on 12 attempts per game - while only dishing out 2 assists. Brother Goodwin if you're reading this, that's not how babies are made. Babies are made by sharing love. Share that love brother Goodwin, and make babies with your team mates.
• Jordan McRae's stats don't look good, but I like him out there. Would prefer a pure passing pg who can hit open shots and play stingy defense - but McRae is showing value.
• Steve Albert is too much in love with saying "Zaza". We get it Steve, it sounds funny - now **** off. Also your teeth freak me out.

Saw Tucker played 40+ minutes and am instantly glad I skipped this one.

Zaza should have been an All-Star starter.He got snubbed

Nothing easy.

Oh, the hate for Tucker is unbelievable. If you want to blame someone then blame this (Please Use More Appropriate Word) coach that plays him 35+ min a game and doesn't realize to put Tucker on the 2nd unit. You think Tucker will go up to Hornacek and demand to play with the 2nd unit because he sucks? GTFO he's a professional and wont open his mouth to play lesser minutes. If Tucker played 15 min a game vs 2nd unit throughout the season I doubt anyone will criticise him unless your name is Jdiddy. Enough of this Tucker bashing and embrace the tank so we can get a nice draft pick.

I think it was decent game, but some ups and downs.

I liked how Booker exploded during the third quarter and team did an incredibly poor job of putting him in position to build off of that in the fourth. That's not how you ride the hot hand. Also, that Booker dunk in the fast break just reinforces what I've been saying about the kid's speed and underrated athleticism.

Tyson Chandler played pretty well, and it looks like he's fitting his role here nicely just in time for him to be traded!

Mirza's start proved fruitful for him. He's still god-awful anywhere inside the three point line, but a team looking for Ryan Anderson-lite would be well off trading for him (he said hopefully).

It's also gotten to the point where I can't stand even seeing Markieff in Suns jersey, let alone actually playing on the floor. Every second of watching him just makes me more certain he doesn't want anything to do with us. He reminds me of a guy who's playing 2k and gets frustrated to the point where he just throws up bs shots not caring what happens. Also, the dude is a black hole. Takes it himself WAY too often.

Archie... if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all.

[SunsRback4Good]

Joseph Stalin killed my people :/

[Mulhollanddrive]

We're part of a 5 team tank, and probably going to finish last in that as well.

I think we can pull ahead of Minny in the Tank-a-thon. They certainly have more raw talent on their roster. And hey! They're playing the Lakers in a few days! That's a win-win game for us!

[pidi]

We are a mess.. why is Hornacek running our offense with chandler? It makes me sick watching this team.. whenever we need points we screw it. I hope this Season ends soon..

Where does Jake tsakalids rank?

Warren was out with some pinched tissue issue in his ankle.

[Jarlaxle0204]

I'm not sure I understand why Len was pulled so quickly in the first half when he was playing really well.

Hornied.

[Funky Tut]

Is the reason they are keeping Jeff around because he insures us that the tank will still happen? Is MCD afraid if he gets a new coach, that may spark something and we may go on a winning streak?
