I pity the players; They must be getting an earful, literally.

No doubt. Great player in his day though....unfortunately for Suns fans.
He seems to be doing a nice job coaching up the Wiz backcourt too.

Vince Carter is really a black whole with the basketball tonight. He does not have any elevation when he goes to the basket. His first half performance probably hurt the Suns more than anyone. In regard to Lopez' performance... Diaw caused me less frustration except Diaw had more talent if he chose to use it. Sometimes Lopez acts like he doesn't have a clue. It leaves me puzzled he went to Stanford.

Random observations:

- Wiz big men are LONG. Arms everywhere. If they all learn to shoot better, watch out in a year or two.

- GoGo Gadget Gortat is getting it done. Been everywhere. That double-pump slam was great. Keeping the Suns in this game.

- Loved EJ giving Sam Cassell and Robert Horry the business about being unprofessional in their brief stint with the Suns back in the 90's. Speak the truth, EJ!

I read where Gentry thinks Lopez can't play off the bench and Gortat can, but you know your game plan sucks when you start the game trying to feed your center to get him going. I mean, it's not like Lopez is going to go off for 40 points. Seriously, our centers need to play within the flow of the game. Why take your worst offensive player on the floor and try to get him going offensively to start the game?

I hope so. They may be playing a little better but they are still just 6 and 16 over their past 22 games. They are locked in a battle with the Nets for the 2nd worst team in the East and we look like we might be able to beat them (barely).

Gortat made a contested lay up!!!!

Yeah, they haven't shown anything spectacular except Nick Young in the 1st half. Suns look much better on the court at the moment. Let's hope it stays that way to the end

The Wiz are who we thought they were!

I almost think the pace is starting to wear on them. They aren't as blazing fast down the floor like they were in the first quarter.

Mainstreet · January 21st, 2011, 04:42 PM

Gortat... like a soccer announcer says goal....

Gwindor · January 21st, 2011, 04:43 PM

Gortat with double-double already

TBaslim · January 21st, 2011, 04:43 PM

Suns looking better! Bench better.

Frye growing. Better D. Hitting 3's on the road.

Nash is such a stud. Gets Frye going in his spot from deep. Then gets Gortat going in a little 2 man game. Then hits VC with a perfect cross hand pass in the pocket for another 3. Boom - 13 point lead.
