I know
our pessimism is just as bad as the team we’re pessimistic over…
I;m trying my best to stay positive but… It’s too hard sometimes. I’m starting to lose faith in this team…
Start Dudley! Trade Warrick! Trade Lopez!
You don't need to try and be positive after this one, my friend.
That was effing ridiculous.

Are you kidding....
Pietrus awful shot and game over
Inexcusable.
Every time you see him
Polish's Hammer's just so tight.
He's dope on the floor, and he's magic on the mic.
Thats it.
Later folks. I think this team is absolutely done. Nothing more to watch this season. See you all next year.
Reading is good...
for anyone who's see black swan:
you know that scene with winona ryder in the hospital, where she goes apeshit and starts stabbing herself in the face? that could serve as a metaphor for the fourth quarter of this game.

I’m done watching until the pieces change. I’ll deposit some true Suns fan chips earned over the past quarter century to save myself from watching this team until they prove they are worth watching. That’s 100 productive hours back in my life this year.
And no, they shouldn’t trade Nash…he’s the only all star caliber player on the team.
We need a fucking power forward.
All the other players do is sit around at the three point line and wait for Nash to do something.
I’d rather watch 2 girls 1 cup then have to watch another Suns basketball game this season.

Why did Frye and Lopez get so few minutes?
A little more size could have stopped Demarcus cousins and helped our rebounding as well. The Kings are a big team, but Gentry insisted on playing wings as pfs.

We’re not a championship contender, but there’s still a good chance to get the eighth seed or higher.
We’ve still got Nash, we’ve still got Hill. We’re still working in new players, guys that have only been on the team for seven games.

36 for Gortat, 35 for Peaches and 32 for Carter
They are pretty much trashing last years team to work in the new comers. Hollinger after the trade, and given how pietrus was playing expected Pietrus to just get benched. I felt from the outset the Suns were overplaying these guys at the expense of the rest of the guys, and you can see at the end of the game, that we have, a bunch of guys who are new to the system and not quite ready/confident enough to really deliver. I keep saying I liked the way we were playing after the trade before the new guys arrived, and when we were using the old team and working with a short bench, and did not expect this kind of massive turn over of minutes to the Orlando guys.
At the same time, a lot of guys just stop hitting shots at the same time. Dragic feels like he is in a season long slump, and Channing has become ignored and is now in a bad slump as well. If you throw in dudley and Hill with a bad night, you are going to really struggle, but you have to wonder why Pietrus is in their at the end over Dudley.
This is a tough one after a string of tough ones, but I don’t think we get out of this by playing Pietrus 35 mins, with very little time for Frye and dudley.
I don't know why Gentry play Frye or Warrick more when the"wing at pf" strategy
was failing. We let Fransisco Garcia get 11 rebounds while Cousins killed us in the paint because Gortat was the only big on the floor(at least in the last minutes of the game)
by gophoenixsuns on Jan 2, 2011 9:47 PM MST up reply actions
didn't see the whole game..
but the board decimation says ya we needed to play a bit bigger, and you sometimes need to just keep Frye in there to let him work out of his slump.
of course, when we are struggling to hit shots we are going to really have a tough time winning the game. You could feel with about 6 mins left that there 3 or 4 possessions in a row where we had open easy shots and failed to hit them, that at some point we weren’t going to be able to win with defence only.
I just don’t know where we stand. It really feels like Frye has been a big part of our success over time, but now that there is Gortat, if Frye is not hitting he’s out. And while I see the logic, without Frye, and having already lost so many of last years pieces, we aren’t even really ourselves anymore, and there seems to be a major struggle for an identity.
Im really, really angry about this win.
Trust me. Im probably even more angry then a lot of you.
But im in no way even thinking about not being a fan of this team. Im not done.
If every time a team had a bad year their fans left, how would they make it through?
S*** happens sometimes. We lost Amar’e, yeah. But seriously, the time to get over it was two months ago. He’s gone. He’s not coming back. Don’t let that be something that gets you down right now. We need to move forward with what we have and focus on that.
Will that mean playoffs? Maybe not.
Will that mean a miserable year for us fans? Quite possibly.
But we are all still residents of Planet Orange. I hope this one bad game doesn’t change that for anyone.

When it comes down to it, this game was about the Kings hitting some big shots late and the Suns shooters completely sucking. If it were some other time in the season it wouldn’t be a big deal, but coming when it does it’s worse.
Btw, anyone missing Hedo or Jason’s clutch late shooting?

It’s strange. I mean I really was expecting a win against the worst team in the league right after the win against the Pistons. I guess I can’t expect anything with this team anymore. I’m not surprised either. I’m not that upset either. <strong
>It’s just a game and the way I’ll view it is that things will only get better from here on out. Meaning, we either blow it up and go down hill which I can take because than I don’t have to see Nash and Hill play for a crappy team. We’d all know what to expect if that was the case and we really wouldn’t be let down by the Suns anymore because we’d know they’re in rebuilding mode. Or we make a trade for that star PF Sarver’s been talking about and we become good again.

I kno we need a star pf but Frye and Warrick can be good Pfs. Unfortunately, Gentry decided to play Pietrus and hill at the psition.

not true imo
pete is a good defender, still a better more rounded player. warrick is a liability on both ends of the floor.
NYC Suns Fan!!!
OK, Euty made a good reason why Warrick and J-Chill aren't playing too much
But I have a better reason
Basically, They’re being benched because the front office doesn’t want trade merchandise getting injured. That’s right, folks at home, eating comfort food in front of your computer screen, I suspect that the Suns are far from done trading this year. I think that they’ll bundle Warrick and Chillz with RoLo for a good power forward.
REASONS:
1: The front office know SOMETHING. All of us have been screaming for a pf since Amare’ left; when they didn’t get a pf in the Rich trade, I immediately knew something else was going down
2: DEFENSE!!! Warrick has been a defensive liability, and J-Chill and RoLo are OK on D, but they need something better, getting rid of Warrick may be great for this team’s defense, because it gets a good defender to help out, in exchange for the liability
3: Rotation! The rotation has been a giant sloppy mess lately, and getting rid of three guys in exchance for, say, 1, can help tighten the rotation and decrease the log jam at the 2 and 3
I’m thinking of this happening and I like it. Think about it for a couple of seconds before calling about RoLo rocking and just not reading the rest: I think that this could really help the team if they got someone like Green, or Smith, or Blatche.
Start Dudley! Trade Warrick! Trade Lopez!
"Basically, They’re being benched because the front office doesn’t want trade merchandise getting injured."
No. That would be stupid. Who would want to trade for someone who can’t get off the bench for a losing team?
Go Suns, Packers, Jays, and Huskers!
And go Shawn Watson and Barney Cotton! Seriously, leave Lincoln. Now.
Alright everyone..enough bellyaching...

You can sugar coat this all you want
for the ones who think this will get better. You don’t lose to the 76ers, Clippers and the Kings in a weeks time and think things will be fine.
This team is in bad shape. All of the above for this team, from the management who constructed this mess, to Gentry who out thinking himself and to the players for an inconsistent effort.
I don’t see this team turning the corner.
i dont agree
losing these games are going to make the suns better. they would have never started working on defense so hard if they had won these. they are working out the kinks now. losing will make you a better team if you focus on why your losing and get better. it doesnt happen in one or two games.

what PF?
Seriously, what star PF is available anyway? Who am I not thinking of?

If we're looking for someone who can come in and have a positive impact for this team immediatly..
Then no, there’s nobody available.
Then trading for a nonexistent star PF would be unwise.

He’s not wired that way. That is to say, he’s not a pussy.
Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it."

So what a game.
That Cousins 3 point play was essentially the clincher. Well, this was a tough loss. But we always knew Sacramento is better offensively than the Pistons. We got schooled and just slipped up at the 4th. Keep those chins up. I swear, everyone is far too antsy. As long as Nash and Hill are here, you can’t give up.
For those chronic rosterbators and eternal pessimists, I come bearing a gift so you can go and please yourselves until the next game:

The dude wanted to leave for a while.
Having your name pop up constantly in trade rumors near the trade deadline every year is going to do that to you. Plus he likes the spotlight. He can’t have it all while 2-Time was here.

Which we were smart to not do in my opinion.
He’s playing out of his mind right now, but there is absolutely no good reason for me to believe that his knees aren’t going to give out at some point in these upcoming 5 years. And lets not forget about his eye, as well.
Plus, he would’ve left anyways. As NashMV3 said above, he wanted all the spotlight and he wasn’t getting it here.
He’s getting MVP talk in New York and that’s what he really wanted all along.

Well, you can believe it one way or another. I would have kept him for the first 2-3 years. That’s all Nash and Grant really have to compete. Sarver didn’t though and he’s screwed up so far because he’s yet to get a decent replacement. He got lucky with Diaw in 06. I need him to go out there and find a real PF.

That's what he said. But you know that in the back of his head he was thinking fame.
And of course he wanted money. I want money too.
And like I said, that’s fine if he would’ve stayed just for the guarantee. Doesn’t mean we should’ve done it. What if he had stayed and something happened to his knees or his eye?
We would be even more screwed then we are right now.

Yes, but nothing will until Sarver goes out there and finds a decent replacement. In 06 we at least had Diaw and that made Amar’e forgettable. Warrick isn’t going to cut it. Neither will Frye or Pietrus.

NYC Suns Fan!!!
They aren’t PFs. They have the game of a SG and SF. They shoot threes. They’re out there to space the floor. We need a PF that can grab some rebounds(doesn’t have to be a lot), play at least decent defense and score in the paint.

Yea, he’s got to at least hit midrange jumpers, but we need him to be a primarily in the paint type of player. Not hanging out on the three point line.

Except we don't want him in the paint clogging things up.
If we want a paint-oriented PF, one of the Cs have to go and we have to get back a perimeter big. That is how our offense works.

Because sarver has to approve of trades-without sarver, I'm pretty sure there would have been another trade by now

So it's automatically Sarver's fault that we haven't pulled off a miracle trade yet?
