Let us see how the Suns play off a b2b when they come in to town on Monday. They have a Sunday game against the Magic before coming in to H-Town. I see them losing against Nuggets and Magic before coming in to H-Town. Their record will be 33 - 31 after Monday it will be 33 - 32, that is what I am predicting.
Kevin Martin and Chuck Hayes played HORRIBLE this game Also too much Brad Miller = loss We're nothing without Luis Scola
No post up game without Scola. He would have kept Warrick busy down low. Pay back on Monday is a must.
And why the ***** is this guy on sports610 saying Miami needs a a big worse than we are like that are worst off. Miami is 3rd place in the east we are not even in the playoffs.
Tough loss to swallow. I think the following things buried us: - slow Rockets offense except Kyle and Pat2's ridiculous shooting - almost null low post presence so that's one weapon we lacked from the get-go - Hakim Warrick was just 'On'. Steve Nash got him the ball in the perfect places, and Warrick got too close to the basket too many times. - Chuck didn't have a predominantly low-post player to guard in this game and wasn't as effective against the much more athletic perimeter oriented big men from Phoenix - Vince Carter returned from the dead to hit more shots than he usually does - We tried too many backdoor cuts and passes (Brad Miller) in the 3rd and 4th quarters that resulted in turnovers - Brad Miller's brain fart at the end, although we shouldn't have let them get on top of us in the first place. I think Brad felt that winning this game was supremely important for playoff hopes, moreso than the other Rockets, and couldn't handle that pressure. Hope the team rebounds and grinds Phoenix to a pulp the next game.
We were really terrible at taking care of the ball. Really hasty half-assed passes all game long by Chuck Hayes and Brad Miller

woulds have liked to see Courtney put up more shots than he did..only 2 of 5 tonight..should have been twice as many..really could have used scola tonight..he could have taken minutes away from hill and miller and maybe we would have got the win..with pat pat showing that hes a legit backup for scola..gotta give it up to lowry for keeping us in the game..liked how the suns players in the end showed kyle some love..
Milller wasn't the only one throwing balls away, it just stood out b/c it was toward the end of the game. Hayes threw away alot of balls himself (along with Martin).
Awe man thats not Lowrys fault at all. Lowry has been as great a PG as we could have hoped he could become. I think the guy is borderline allstar right now. Hope he knows this game was just tough luck.
It's funny how people want to make Martin into a superstar when he gets locked up by old man Grant Hill.
Thanks for the draft pick Brad! Let's try to be positive here. It would have been disastrous for us to beat the Suns tonight because if they don't make the playoffs, we get Orlando's draft pick instead of theirs. Brad Miller singlehandedly moved our pick up 10 slots.
Hill did hold Durant to 3-14 from the field the other night...believe me, I heard enough of this tidbit while watching the Suns' awesome broadcasters
