We lead the league in showcasing talent. Nash makes everyone he plays with better.... and the Suns make everyone they play better.

Gentry with the worst inbound play of all time. Nash had to work like a maniac for the ball. Frye getting the ball from Amare was worthless and cost us a couple seconds to at least get off a better shot. Bayless looked like D-Wade when oviously he is a bench warming scrub. Won't have another game like this the rest of his life.

this was *** pathetic. another double digit lead lost to a team that was struggling, on national tv, with two guards getting every shot they wanted, no one watching the perimeter. 11 points from the bench.

someone needs to send a memo to steve nash telling him to take over the game when the offense starts to get stagnant. when it STARTS... not when its TOO LATE. ugh. the 4th quarter was some of the ugliest offensive i've ever seen from the suns.

I blame Gentry for these losses. When a team is making a run at us, Nash should be the one shooting the ball. Never should he go to Amare when momentum is on the opposing team. You see what Nash can do in clutch moments, why don't Nash shoot the ball more when we need him to? I'm just happy we're unbeatable at home.

another heartbreaker... and the curse continues. Last time the suns won on TNT, Baron Davis was still a warrior.

I will go cry myself to sleep now.

Look on the bright side, at least now we can continue to listen to a fat happy donut talk about how we don't play any defense and how defense wins championships. Here is a hint who im talking about, he doesn't have a ring because he was to busy with hooker's, drugs, alcohol, and gambling.

Tough way to lose as the Suns were killing Portland the whole game. I think the Suns need to send in Collins to take a cheap shot on Bayless and let him know no more layups.

You can't just let the dude come down the lane time and again. Then he has the nerve to smirk at the bench like he does this all the time. He would have been on his face hurting if I were the coach no question.

Coulda,woulda,shoulda sums up this game... :banghead:

how the eff.

ok problem one we gave away yet another lead to not a team but a duo, roy + bayless raped us.

secondly when you have a GOLDEN run out like that one that goran had how in the world do you 1. not use the backboard (big white square there to help you make layups) or 2. not draw a call in that situation OR 3. reset the play cuz we still had time...

i LOVE my suns but this is exactly the kind of BULL$h!t that i hate about them.

i am so furious right now ahhhhhhhhhh

time to play modern warfare 2 and just kill ppl to make myself feel better.... AHHHHHHH

i do blame coaching here.. it wasnt even lay ups! Bayless was HOT the entire game and didnt have a body on him until the blazers were body bumping each other for the win. so it wasnt even the suns who bodied up on him. pathetic. i know we're not a defensive team but a dude thats killing us shouldnt be getting wide open 3's. garbage ending by the suns tonight.

It's way too early to give up on the season. Portland's been inconsistent this season, but we still have a shot at the playoffs which would be a decent accomplishment this season considering all the setbacks we've had.

We've lost too many games already this season to be taken seriously.

Fast guards that can penetrate have been killing us for a number of years now so it's not surprising to hear that Bayless had a really good game tonight.
That is our achilles heel.

Meh, 17-9 is a good start. You guys shouldn't hang your heads too much. PHX has played a lot of road games thus far and they get the help of a 10 out of 12 game home stand coming up. Besides, PHX is outperforming most expectations thus far.

It's depressing to think that going into the 4th quarter I thought, "So this is where they screw up it. After such a good game an they're about to blow it" and then they did. I feel like it's gonna be another 7-8 years before we're even mentioned as serious contenders again. We played well for what we had out there but we still need a lock down defender at the 2 guard, and a big tough guy down low. I dunno. I'm losing hope in us ever winning a championship. It's gonna be a whole new team that gets a chance at it. I don't think anyone that we currently have will be around when the time comes again. Last time around, we had KJ, Majerle, and Barkley. 11 years later, our time comes again. Aaaaand now it's gone. When's next time gonna be?

Bad, bad, bad loss.

It's a FOURTH GAME IN A ROW (Magic, Nuggets, Spurs, Blazers) when we give up double digit lead in 3rd or 4th quarter.

We gave up 13 point lead to Magic, 17 point lead to Nuggets, 20 point lead to Spurs and 13 point lead to Blazer. It's ridiculous.

On the bright side, Amare looks much better lately.

Return to Phoenix Suns
