    Honestly, the reason we've gotten down so far (and Waltah has gone off) is that Juwon isn't really apt to guarding guys out at the 3 point line, and rotating like the others should.

    He's more used to guarding Yao's guy, whenever Yao is on the pick and roll... thank goodness Jeff FINALLY realized this, and put Bowen in to guard Waltah.

    The key tonight seems to be how to keep Yao's stamina up, and fouls down... cause when he's in there, he's definitely changing the game.

    I feel so much better not having to read "26-footer" in the game log

    Man, phoenix gets away with a lot of 3 second violations. Amare had one earlier and Hunter just had one.

    Dude take it easy. As quickly as PHX gets points, they give it up rather quickly also.

    It's tied at half, I step away for a second, PHX is up 15, i step away again, and we are within 4. Have faith.

    man Tracy is stepping it up big time. This game should be game of the night just based on its first 3 quarters

    He is... but every time Phoenix has made an adjustment on offense, we've failed to really counter it.

    In the 1st quarter, we had our run...and their bench brigade changed the tempo.

    In the 3rd, they had their run... we finally adjusted... but now they've adjusted again.
