Sometimes members on this board's IQ level surprises me. The 2 best players were out, Dragic was in foul trouble and couldn't play when lead got out of hand. Oh and did I mention the refs are crap?
Hayes wouldn't even take that shot, he'll find a cutting Martin for the score lol. Camby will do this in time, he's got the skills.
we have a pretty favorable schedule now lakers bad on the road we then get golden state and dallas coming off back to backs at home followed by sacremento 3-1 could be in the books we need some rest
it wasn't that bad, just a horror 1q when dragic sat with foul trouble. my only complaint was during that horror run when refs were giving the suns fouls but straight after this stretch when rockets recovered a little our guards were getting fouled but refs didn't call them. fortson looks out of his depth.
If someone on my roster is going to be out injured for a while at my business, I will make sure that we have an adequate replacement or enough bodies on the floor to get the job done... Make of it what you will... I'm only responsible for what I say, not what you understand.
We have adequate replacement for Martin and Lowry in Courtney Lee and Goran Dragic. The Rockets even have a adequate replacement for Lee's backup-wing minutes in Budinger. They have just lacked a good 3rd string PG. But asking a team to have a 3rd string PG to be a adequate replacement for Lowry is a tall task.
interesting that the Suns kept sending immediate double teams over to morris every time he caught the ball in the post. Once he learns to immediately rise up and shoot, or the passer is set up for a spot up shot, he will be a lethal scorer.
I just believe, IMO, that knowing that Lowry & Martin are out we could've signed someone a little better than (impressive) Courtney Fortson, if we were seriously making a run at the playoffs. Releasing T-Will was also a head scratcher right at this moment, was his attitude and game that bad? Who knows...maybe it's the jerking of my lower limbs speaking.
I agree with the Fortson part. I don't know enough about him, but when I watched him, I would much rather have Anthony Carter (proven) or Ish or Conroy or, hell, Oscar Torres. We're barely clinging on to that spot.
1. T Will was AWOL from two practices in one week. 2. Not sure there are good options available as FAs out there. Even the guys who just got released after the deadline (guys like Nocioni, Anthony Carter, Turiaf and now Derek Fisher) have to wait 48 hours to clear the waiver wire and cannot be signed until now (there a reason why none of these guys got picked up yet-- the rules don't allow them to be). D-League guys like Fortson are really the only available options at this point.
Courtney Lee exterminated by Dragic! http://www.nba.com/video/games/suns/2012/03/18/0021100667_hou_phx_play3.nba
