PrintDallas Mavericks at Phoenix Suns, Jan 30, 2012 7:00 PM MST
Some notes from Gentry's office:
- Nash won't go (but you knew that already). He couldn't "contract" or "push off". Price will start so we'll get to see Marcin Gortat in some different situations. Gentry said that if it were a playoff game Nash could have "gutted it out" so don't expect him out for long.
- Gentry said key for Price is to not try and be Nash. Suns will run less pick and roll and more movement. Gentry compared Price backing up Nash to the QB for the Colts having to play behind Peyton Manning.
- On Frye's poor shooting, Gentry said he's getting good shots and shooting with confidence. He just needs to keep at it.
- Gentry said Jason Terry does not get enough credit for hitting big shots in clutch situations (he hit a big one lat night against the Spurs).
- Gentry stressed that everyone knows there roles on this team. He wasn't asked about that but wanted to make sure we wrote it. Apparently someone, somewhere either wrote or said something about that. Whatever.
- Gentry said he would like to lock down a nine-man rotation but the guys aren't playing consistently enough for him to do that.
- Coach said the Suns were too slow initiating their zone offense against the Grizzlies. They need to get the ball moving earlier in the clock to create openings in the zone.
- Oh, and remember when Shawn Marion hit a bunch of threes against the Suns when they last played and Dirk was..."injured"? Gentry said he's fine w/ Trix taking threes but we should remember that Shawn can make threes. He just hopes his players close out on him with a hand up.

I get that Dallas is elite..
but i don’t get how we get either their best games of the season or some miraculous performance from someone (usually a couple of guys have their best games of the season at least) every single time out against these guys. I mean this cannot be totally attributable to our defence.
Last time no Dirk, Marioon goes off, This time their 3 point shooting is on fire.
I mean this has been one of our best scoring games and we are defending ok on them and they are on pace for 65. 9-15 from the 3 point line in one half, with multiple guys seemingly on fire.
These for me are just the most frustrating games to watch.
What is it with PHX bringing in former Chicago Bulls?
I can understand emulating a great franchise, but do they have to bring in members of the weakest part of the Bulls roster: the 5 spot?

Best stat of the first half:
9 Suns players combined to play 100 minutes and got 7 rebounds.
Gortat played 20 minutes and got 6 rebounds.
Gortat was that close to outrebounding the rest of the team – with 6!
It was only called the mildly irritated house on McDowell until I showed up.
Well, Gortat is one of the few true basketball players on this team
The rest are just roster-fillers, an excuse by the FO in their wild claim that we’re going to get a superstar this off-season.

48.6 FG%

5 turnovers
That might have been the most efficient half of basketball the Suns have played this season, which resulted in them only being down by 18 at the half.

I noticed this..
the suns played actually a very good half and having watched these guys for some time, can not say that that was a lackadaisacal defence, compared to many of the efforts I have seem. I mean when a team hits 5 threes in a row and shots 8-9 from 3 in one quarter, it is not just bad defence.
if all of them are wide open?
against proved shooters? no sir, that is just BAD defense.

Chilly is the only player in the game with more than 1 foul.
Does the fact that both teams have combined for only 11 fouls support the conclusion that both of these teams are mailing it in on defense?
It was only called the mildly irritated house on McDowell until I showed up.
don't think so....
though I would expect many less points next half. Dallas just seems to hit at an unbelievable rate when playing the suns. And I knew that Carter would absolutely torch us. That was very predictable.
I think EJ is right that we are just “over helping”. I see a lot of effort on defence from the Suns just no results.
Why the commercials?

Hey guys

Sorry, while I know that it is fashionable to think the suns are just awful, that was one of our better half's
this year, scoring that efficiently with no Nash and a heavy dose of the almost totally unplayed Jchill.
Obviously we deserve some of the fault for Dallas scoring close to the most points in one half by any team this season. They were absolutely on fire.
Childress sits for weeks, finally gets in and is playing well...
And Gentry pulls him on the third foul to save him?
For what?

It’s just not getting done.
Although, one of the problems involves a chart and the question asks who has the better game, Steve Nash or Lebron James? Steve wins, but even if he didn’t, I’d get the question wrong just to write Steve.

The WNBA is all about the game of basketball. No overblown hype, no despicable personalities, no outrageous amounts of money, no mugging halftime analysts, and no poisonous animosities. Just the finesse and effort of basketball. If that isn't interesting to people, then people just aren't interested in basketball.

Now would be a inopportune time to end the promotion.
The Suns will probably only score 99 points in 5 or 6 games the rest of the season. Might as well get the free advertising without risking much in terms of tacos.

Do Nash and Hill care about winning
Nash and Hill continue to stay here (probably because of trainers) but in the past they have never joined teams that were good. Grant Hill signed in Orlando when they were coming off a 41-41 year and Nash signed in Phoenix when we were coming of a 29-53 year, both because Orlando and Phoenix payed more than Detroit and Dallas. Sad that we have to really over pay Nash and Hill so they stay.

Nash cares more about loyalty to a team
than searching for wins wherever they exist in this world. Grant likes to play with Steve.

So he goes to the Suns, the team he asked to trade him in 1998
who is coming off a terrible season, for more money. That’s probably why he stays. NY can only give him around 6 mill while we’re rumored to be offering 8-10 mill. Same with Hill, Chicago could only offer 2 mill, but we offered 6.5 so he stays.

"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
So he pulled an Amare?
What we criticize Amare for he did. Cuban offered Nash, at age 30 a 4 year deal for less money, for a chance to win, be with his teammates and best friend, or go to a team coming off a 29 win season, for more wins, more money and to be the number 1 option. Think about that.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
Yep
That’s why I felt like we were too harsh with Amar’e when he left. The guy just wanted to be with a team that believed in him. Although, it seems like the Knicks don’t believe in him anymore.
Think about. Your company tells you, “I don’t believe you can hold up, so I don’t want to give you that deal.” Unless you agree, It’d be kind of hard to go back to them after that.
Don't trade Dudley!
Yes, but right now at their age and in their current situations
There are more important things to them. Well, I suppose there always has been, but what I mean is that it’s too important for them to just leave.
Don't trade Dudley!
Not every star wants to just go join other stars to make a super team
Honestly, if I was a player of Lebron quality, I would want to go to a team who has never won it all, and then go win it there. now THAT would prove something.

But Nash left Dallas because Phoenix gave him more years and money
like NY gave Amare more years and money.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
Did you ask Nash personally?
Is it not possible that he felt dissed (which he was) and liked the sounds of playing for coach D in a nash first offence and to play for once with much tougher inside players (Matrix and Stat) over the relatively softer (at that time) Dirk and Finley, knowing that he still had JJ on the wing and the promise of other moves to bolster the team possibly coming?
and really how can anyone criticize Nash’s move, or compare it to other greedy players, when his move caused the greatest turn around in wins in NBA history? doesn’t that make it just a tad different from the Melo or Stat moves?
If Amare led his team to 62-20 wins no one would care?
29 wins the Suns came off of. Amare was still young and wasn’t as dominant. I bet Amare felt dissed too when he was offered a 3 year non guaranteed contract at age 27 after coming off a 23 and 9 year.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
Yep, but they didn't and he chose Phoenix
As I said above, the team that believed in him was the team he chose. It wouldn’t be easy to take an offer from a team that doesn’t believe in you when you played for them for 6 years. I don’t blame Nash, I don’t blame Amar’e, I don’t blame Cuban, I do blame Sarver.
Don't trade Dudley!

Dragic isn't even that good
Brooks is more talented.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
Your question is absurd because you and I both know Brooks isn't playing for us this season
that doesn’t mean that he’s not a better player than Dragic. If you want to be delusional and think Dragic is the second coming of Steve Nash because he had 1 good game in the playoffs and then played half ass the next season, and was a head case, also almost losing his backup job to Zabian f*cking Dowdell, then be my guest.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
thats my point
we traded Dragic for a guy who doesnt even play for us and most likely wont play fr us in the future either
But Dragic was nothing special
there are lots of players that can be signed to give the same production he gives. This season is going nowhere, so whats the point in Brooks playing? Let Price and Telfair walk and sign Brooks in the offseason.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
But re-signing Brooks is not guaranteed
and I’m by any means saying Dragic was our future. I just feel we could have gotten more if we packaged him or even let him play more minutes this season and up his value for a better player with a guaranteed contract
We overrated Dragic
no one else saw him with the same value as Suns fans did, that’s why we had to give Houston a 1st rounder too to take Dragic off our hands.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
ya we tend to overrate everyone
but who would you rather have? Bassy and Price or Dragic? and Brooks was going to be a RFA anyway. if we really wanted him we could have gotten him. his value would have been low. so we could have had Dragic our first round Pick and Brooks
They felt like Brooks could help get them to the playoffs.

Brooks may be more talented,
but Dragic has proved that he can fit with the Suns offense. Brooks as talented as he is, hasn’t prove anything in the Suns uniform. When you still searching for that backup PG after trading the one that has look capable enough to fill that role, then I’d say we should keep that player in the first place.

I vote for Frye as the most detrimental player of the game
and for this whole miserable excuse for a season as far as that goes.
I think this might be worth mentioning in the recap.
It was only called the mildly irritated house on McDowell until I showed up.
Amnesty Frye
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
At this point I vote Frye over Childress. Him and Dudley hustles...Frye doesn't
Twitter: @FredLegittt
And Chilly shot near 57 % from FG's last season
Frye has barely got 35% this season
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
Hak was -14 in 11 mins of play.
that plays out to losing by 61, so that is fairly bad.
I wish there was a set in stone plan as to how The Fo is planning to fix this team
rosterbating and speculation only bring false hopes and disappointment Cant take this any more i want answers
Re-sign Nash
bring in some washed up star (Redd, Carter) to sell some tickets, win a little less games than you lose sell more tickets, be an 8th seed, get sweep, repeat.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
*swept
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
We got on Amare's case for not getting 10 rpg
and Frye can’t even grab 1! Plus he shoots 1-5, 1-9, 2-7 etc.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
As long as Frye, Dudley and Hill start on this team, we're going nowhere
I don’t care how much you guys love them, on any winning team these guys would be role players, in the case of Frye maybe even bench warmers. Hill had a good game tonight and is a good defender, but he’s 39, he shouldn’t be a starter. Dudley and Frye have been off this season, especially Frye. I like what I saw from Chilly hustle wise, and I know you guys hate them, but Telfair and Brown production wise. Price was a none factor and Telfair played with heart.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
Your nuts..
while it may be true to say that any team that starts Frye, dudley and Hill aren’t very good. any team that starts Chilly telfair and Shannon wins no more than 10 games in a 82 game season.
Other than that…good points!!
I didn't say start Brown, Telfair and Chilly
I said I liked the way they played. Come on lets be real, when Nash comes back Chilly starting would have the potential for at least 15 ppg and 7 rpg, and Brown with 17, 3 and 3.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
Well, Chilly would be interesting in the lineup
Hill could do some good things in terms of leadership with the second unit. Still, not sure mixing the rotation once again will make us any beter.
by pereplyotkin on Jan 30, 2012 10:07 PM MST up reply actions
Brown's per 36 is 16 ppg
That’s better than Dudley’s 12 ppg this season. We need scoring, no? Hell, we were better with Vince Carter starting than Dudley. Josh Childress’ career per 36 is around 13 and 6.5. Better than Hill’s 12 and 4. Plus Chilly is more athletic and doesn’t tire as easy. It’s not fair for him to just sit on the bench while less talented players (Frye, Dudley (yes Dudley is less talented, but he hustles and plays his heart out)) start.
"I don't lift weights because they are heavy, and I don't run because it makes me tired." - Charles Barkley
I hate Point Per Minute
There are two possibilities:
1) a player is shooting really well
2) A player is shooting a LOT.
Brown is number 2 for sure.
We need scoring, no?
We need efficient scoring, not just scoring.
But really, letting the other team shoot 55.2% and 51.9% from 3 – that seems a lot like bad D (or very good luck).
by MMotherwell on Jan 30, 2012 10:18 PM MST up reply actions
They played well once...
So did Dudley, who has quite a few good games recently.
Those guys you mentioned aren’t starters. the reality is that there are not a lot of obvious starters on this team. Last year Nash/dudley/Frye/Hill/Gortat went about a month where they were close to unbeatable. So that is why they get the nod. And Frye has had two years in a row as a good shooter, and despite what everybody thinks a decent defender. Is it possible that those were the exceptions and this is more like “what he is”? possibly..But that guy had almost an MVP year last year and we almost completely sucked last year the moment he left the line up. So while I can’t argue that he has had an absolutely awful shooting year, he has A WAY better track record than any of the guys you mentioned.
And chilly while effective tonight had a huge number of bad turnovers and bobbles in the few mins he played. Overall, playing the hot hand has been the best solution. Give Chilly minutes until he starts to s@@ck than sit him down again.
I was with you until
Frye is a good defender. He’s not, and he’s a VERY poor rebounder. Frye has stretches, like the first 6 games, where he looks very good rebounding and defending.
But both rebounding and defending are consistent effort skills, e.g. they aren’t about doing well infrequently, or maximum ability, but about effort each and every play. That is why Gortat is a very good rebounder, and Frye is very poor.
Frye just seems like a player who is capable of playing in 5th gear, but usually plays in 2nd. His best, at each skill, is very good, but his average is very ordinary indeed.
by MMotherwell on Jan 30, 2012 10:22 PM MST up reply actions
if we were to perform an autopsy on the utter train wreck that the last two years have been
a major contributing cause has to have been the front office’s willingness to put a bunch of faith in guys that absolutely did not deserve it. i’m thinking in particular of robin and channing. the FO was counting on their continued development to soften the blow of amare’s departure after the 2009-2010 season, and the only thing they have been is consistently inconsistent. in the NBA, “consistently inconsitent” means “if you’re forced into the position of having to depend on these guys, you’re screwed.”
and here we are.
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."

although i also think he’s lost a step. he can’t blow past guys and get to the basket the way he used to. i think that the microfracture may be finally starting to take its toll.
