I wish the bt would come out sooner. This really sux not having cable and unable to watch Rockets games.
...what about the behind the back pass with yao in the 1st quarter...lol damn what a great win ...17-2 when tmac scores 30+ pts...pretty impressive
So anyone gonna bring back that "Fire JVG thread"? I would love to have someone talk that same ole noise now...
I don't know what kind of weed McCarty was smoking, but he was hitting it from everyfreakinwhere!! It's going to be interesting on 4/9 when Marion will be back in their lineup playing us. They were just shooting it lights out from outside. I'm glad Yao,T-Mac, Wesley, and the rest stepped up. Now we just have to get Sura back into playoff-mode.
Nash has been sigificantly less aggressive since his hamstring injury a couple of weeks ago. Yesterday on 12 News he said it was about 60% and he has definitely looked out of sorts lately (9 TO's against SA)
"I have to tip my hat to my big fella," McGrady said. "He played with great aggression tonight. There was nothing soft about Yao, nothing at all. He played his butt off." Yao wouldn't admit it. He said those rebounds would have hit him in the head had he not grabbed them. But he seemed to relish what he was doing. He was dominant in ways he had not been before and once he reached that level, for a stretch, the Rockets were, too. http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/sports/3081460
I disagree somewhat. The refs won't let Yao play so aggressively because he is not known as an aggressive player. If they see him play this hard every night, he will get Shaqesque calls and be allowed to manhandle anybody he wants.
OK, these last two games have turned me from hopefuly optimistic to contemplating and comparing this team to those that also unexpectadly became champions. Damned if the pieces are not there to pull it off...... It's all there for the taking
Are all NBA players arrogant or just SUNs (from coach to player)? How can you say this when you were just beaten by 20 pts!?? " They (the Rockets) might not be as good as us , but they played like the hungrier team," Quentin Richardson said. "They played the hardest and did the right things when it was important." link: http://www.azcentral.com/arizonarepublic/sports/articles/0312sunside0312.html
^It's what you say to yourself when you're sitting on the shower floor crying to yourself like a little girl and saying "We're better than the Rockets......We're better than the Rockets!?!?!?" after getting your ass handed to you... But, yeah it happens alot..
I hope we see the Suns in the Playoffs, becuase we will be the better and hungrier team then as well...lol. The quick start really went to the Suns head, and like the Mavs of a couple of years ago they are in for a big let down come playoff time.
part of the the reason that i like jvg is that he NEVER disrespects the other team, other players, or other coaches. little biatches like mike dantoni i can't stand. i can't believe anyone on phoenix would have the nerve to complain about the refs. 16 fts not enough for you amare? every single call he wanted and jumped around flailing his arms for were absolute no calls. a player shouldn't get rewarded for just jumping into someone and creating all the contact. also what's up with richardson and his little fists over the head thing after every shot he makes? how old are you Q? man, i just don't like phoenix. i love the players that we have on this team. could we even ask for a better group of guys? i'm seeing some good things for these guys!
