[KingSpeed]

Anybody know the last time we had a season sweep against the Suns.

1999. And that Matthews shot WAS a three.

 

[illmatic99]

WTF, refs.

 

[B-Roy]

LOL, Andre shoved Warrick.

Why are they getting FTs though???

 

[BlayZa]

mark jackson giving broy a high five and a backhand in the same breath.

wes 'feast' matthews in the building tonight

 

[B-Roy]

BALL DON'T LIE BITCHES.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

wes 'feast' mathews in the building tonight

Wes isn't playing tonight, Mixum said.

 

[B-Roy]

Aldridge needs to learn how to make an outlet pass.

 

[BlayZa]

Wes isn't playing tonight, Mixum said.

ah ok , he'd know. my bad.

move along, nothing to see here.

 

[B-Roy]

Matthews went to Nash when he shoulda went to Dudley, Andre had to rush out.

 

[illmatic99]

Jared Dudley thinks he's good. That thought needs to be squashed.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Jesus Patty is terrible on D

 

[B-Roy]

This team loves leaving three point shooters open don't they.

 

[Nikolokolus]

O M G ... Patty kills me.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Just wanted to say one thing: Armon Johnson must have slept with Nate's daughter.

EDIT:

I take it back, finally an Armon sighting.

 

[illmatic99]

O M G ... Patty kills me.

Dude, chill. This guy was the 55th pick in the draft. If Patty "kills you" your expectations for him are way too high.

 

[B-Roy]

O M G ... Patty kills me.

He's pretty bad no doubt, but he's the only PG on this team that can shoot...

 

[B-Roy]

Thank god for Vince Stupid.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Dude, chill. This guy was the 55th pick in the draft. If Patty "kills you" your expectations for him are way too high.

I could give two shits what somebody's draft position is. I only care about what they do (or don't do) when they are on the court.

 

[illmatic99]

Well, anything Patty gives us is gravy in my mind. And him being on the floor prevents PHX from throwing aggressive double teams at Aldridge, so I don't really mind him in there. I can live with his mistakes. We just need to find a way to hide him on D-- putting him on Nash was a dumb decision.

You can really only hide him by putting him on a player with no offense, that player doesn't exist on Phoenix's roster outside of their centers.

 

[B-Roy]

Andre you...

 

[illmatic99]

Serious SMH @ Nate imploring his team to not be creative.

WTF. This team is suffering because it IS so predictable.

 

[julius]

The Blazers seem to be putting on a clinic!

A clinic on playing crappy defense (which the Suns are putting on jointly).

 

[Nikolokolus]

Andre you...

Yeah that was a pretty rotten fast break ... and his D is a little wobbly tonight.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Serious SMH @ Nate imploring his team to not be creative.

LOL. You seem shocked.

 

[B-Roy]

Leaving the three point shooters. Fuck me.

 

[julius]

Leaving the three point shooters. Fuck me.

You expect it to be any different then it's been for the last 10 years?

 

[illmatic99]

LOL. You seem shocked.

Did you hear that? He said- word for word: "We don't have to be creative! Just take what they give you."

Can we please get rid of him?

 

[B-Roy]

You expect it to be any different then it's been for the last 10 years?

I'd expect Batum to know better.

But I think Nate is asking him to deliberately leave Hill. This is the 4th or 5th time this game.
