Suns Game Thread: I Still Believe With Wallstar 

Post#1 » by dlts20 » Sat Apr 2, 2016 12:09 am

I still believe that the teams in front of us will lose enough to give us a shot and the only difference between our wins and losses is that Wallstar is still out his groove for the hundredth time this year. If he finds his rhythm then we can win every game outside of the Clipp and I even think we can shock them if John finds his groove again. Its a day game for a West Coast team and the Blake thing can work against them just as much as for them. People don't even put us on the grid anymore for the 8th spot so we can sneak up but you need your stars to play like it. Find Wall's groove against this bad team and we can still shock the world

I think the Wizards will win this game because #soWizards; but they have no chance at a playoff spot.

They have to win from here on it essentially. For a chance to be swept.

I'll watch them but no, they have zero shot even though Detroit is losing to Dallas tonight and Indiana was a no-show against Orlando last night. This team is disintegrating before our eyes. Witt and Gortat hate each other. Nobody seems to get along. Sure, they might win by 30 tonight, but I doubt it. This is just a bad basketball team but not bad enough to lose every game unless they just give up on Witt.

Ballboy i say meh. Everything you said is true but its still all about Wall. When he sucks then pretty much everyone sucks and we look like a lottery team. When he's great then our confidence goes through the roof. He just has to find his rhythm again because the teams in front will also continue to lose

Not unless Durant renegs on his promise to sign here
I saw him in Cleveland park last week, he told me he was "definitely" signing here. He also said that monte is a little light in his loafers, so take that as you may.

What kind of "ovation" have the Phoenix fans given that great human being - Markieff Morris?

If we aspire to be a playoff team (hahahahaha), we cannot be struggling against teams like a short-handed Suns squad.

These games expose the Wizards for what they really are: Pretenders.

Nice start Brad (not). When you criticize your teammates you better back it up with a strong game.

Playoff Possibility: Because we have the tie breaker over Detroit and Chicago (including a game still to play at Detroit), the Zards best shot is to win all 7 remaining games and hope Detroit goes no better than 3-3 and Chicago loses at least 2 down the stretch.

Otto's off the ball defense has to be close to the worst in the league.
