T-mac is in clear and obvious pain... he just needs to get healthy. Once we clinch the playoffs, I say rest him... even if it means we have to play the Suns or Spurs... its just not worth it to continue to play him if he's only at 75% going into the playoffs.
This is hockey pace. The sub pattern too. Man, we are the oldest team in the league. Blew layups after layups. Holding my breath for the 2nd half.
He took out Yao for Deke after the Phoenix bench blew up and got a tech for the non-call on Yao. I envisioned them just driving it in on him on the next posession, and the refs would whistle anything close to resembling contact.... but alas, JVG out-thunk them.
Man, typical Suns! They are such a soft-ass team that WHNEVER they don't get their share of calls, they start b****ing about it endlessly and take themselves out of the game, mentally speaking that is. THAT is why if this team meets the Spurs or the Mavs, they will be history. They are just a soft team, and I despise soft teams. BE MEN AND STOP PLAYING LIKE WHINY LIL' GURLS!
Communication has a ton to do with it, but why is Yao so oblivious to what is going on out there? Have you ever seen a big man get blindsided so many times as Yao has? Maybe his deaf ear has something to do with it, but he needs to be able to check his back. And just a LITTLE help from his teammates could make a world of difference.
I loved seeing the Suns bench in anger. Don't they realize that have a guy in Stoudamire who gets more bs foul calls just because he runs into players when he drives. Amare is good, but he's starting to annoy me as a player. It's like I really enjoy it when bad things happen to him on the floor.
If you were 7'6, you would be oblvious to many of the things happening in the world below you (or the world that we all know). Also, this used to happen to Akeem/Hakeem often enough as well... the key was to recognize it, and swing the ball around until that defender was no longer there, or the refs called illegal defense.
We are missing too many layups. James blew one against Barbosa, and Sura blew one against Nash. Those plays are so crucial. Did anyone else notice Q try to draw a lame foul by pulling up on Yao and then wildly kicking his legs? When will the Suns stop worrying about fouling Yao out and just play the game?
Yao has a long way to go for his defensive rebounding. The problem is once he went for blocking, he just could not get back quickly for rebound. Deke is much better in that regard. Nash really annoyes me, not only his messy hair style, but alos the way his play on defense. I've noticed on many occasions that he tried to pull big guys' shorts or Jersey when he was picked.
First off what the heck is up with our GUARDS' shooting? They can't seem to get on any kind of roll with their shots. Anyone think the rockets' guards will snap out of it and start shooting better in the playoffs?
is any way we can slow them down?. I just wounder why we d their PG from anytime? is it possible stop their run and run
