Unlike most of you young wipper-snappers, I've turned the lights off and locked the doors in order to ignore this Halloween. There's plenty scary enough for me just thinking about our Phoenix Suns.  So, in the halloween spirit, here are some frightening Suns pix.....

Yup. That's all she wrote....but here's a few choice quotes from Captain Canada himself.

But first, a Gortat update. He said his nose was fine and wasn't bothering him. He finished with 20 points and 15 rebounds but said he needed to grab more rebounds in the first half. He also said Steve Nash could make a blind man a scorer. He also said we can stop thinking about the playoffs.

Phoenix Suns Resigned To End Of Playoff Hopes, Lose To Mavericks 91-83 - SB Nation Arizona
"It feels like it's over, just because we haven't played as well or won games so it's disappointing, but it's been disappointing all season," Steve Nash said after the game.

Asked about his feelings on the new lineup that has Jared Dudley and Marcin Gortat starting, Nash answered with a comment about theme of the season.

"Well, you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. We start this lineup and we have a good first quarter but then we don't have Marcin coming off the bench or Jared (Dudley) coming off the bench.

"We're a team that's had so much change this year that I don't think we know where we are yet. We're still trying to learn who we are with all the new pieces. We have five guys left from last year. It's been hard to really get on a roll or momentum without commonality."

Here's your postgame video from tonight's Suns win over the Warriors. The audio and other technical stuff is coming together nicely. Note that I don't have the skill (or time/patience) to do any fancy editing so what you get is what I see. 

Tonight we have Alvin Gentry's postgame press conference. He was happy with the win but still talked about the lack of a consistent 48-minute effort. He answered my question about Brooks as well.

Steve Nash talked about his health, the return of Channing Frye, and the impact of all the roster moves on the second unit.

Channing Frye talked about his favorite movies and plans for the weekend his return to the floor and how he felt.

Marcin Gortat discussed the game and the mass of Polish fans you came to his first even NBA Polish Night to see him receive an award from his country.
