    How do the Suns teach their players to shoot so well? I remember Barbosa 2 years ago, as a rookie, was a terrible shooter with an ugly stroke, now he's one of the best 3 ball shooters in the league. What's the secret? Why can't the Rox shoot even half as well(on a consistent basis)?

    What is JVG doing now? Matching up Suns with small lineup? That's stupid

    Right about what? That we're not at the level of the elite teams in the league? Well, duh!

    That's why I said making the playoffs is going to be a very, very, very long shot, we dug ourselves too deep a hole, too late in the season and we're still nine games under...we can't play .800 the rest of the way, I just don't see it.

    We might have a chance against the Heat and the Pistons and the Spurs who play a slower type of game, but the Suns and other sharp shooting teams like that that can make the three-shot? We might win once in a blue moon.

    This year the Pistons have adapted this type of system...and I would bet it all on either the Pistons or the Suns winning it this year.

    Man, there has got to be a pill the Suns players must take to make all those threes. They are unbelievable, everybody that joins this team becomes a 3 point wizard when they play here.

    That's because we DON'T defend the three, we like to dare teams to beat us from the outside...which is what the Suns love to do.

    We haven't made an open shot tonight... and they've made every one.

    You won't win any games like that.

    In that case, the coach has a brain fart.

    It's amazing what their system does for them, every player they get turns into a shooter, it's amazing!
