2010 Playoffs: Round 1, Game 1 - Trail Blazers At Suns Game Thread

[ninous26]

I can see this being an 08 playoffs Hawks vs. Celtics and an 09 playoffs Bulls vs. Celtics.

usually I'm the pessimistic person on here.....but the suns were off tonight; 3's weren't clicking, Miller going lights out and Amare erased; suns will figure things out and go on all cylinders. That's alright. I don't know why everyone was all cocky in the beginning like we were going to blow out a team we had difficulty all year with. Ridiculous. I knew it would be a tough matchup.

 

[mjb21aztd]

aww well very upset but we better show up 100 times better in game 2 man guys wtf this is the playoffs

 

[Proteus]

Eh, bad shooting night, that's all. Suns still take this series in 6.

We shot poorly against them in the regular season as well.

 

[95pro]

yeah miller abused nash and barbs.

amare has always been bothered by lengthy guys, i kind of expected a weak 1st game from him. he'll come back strong, i dont expect him to be shut down for an entire series.

but jrich...

 

[GorrilaLips]

3!

 

[95pro]

103-100, 12.2 left to go

 

[mojorizen7]

This BLAZER team with a healthy Roy,Oden & Prisczbilla would be SCARY.
We obviously missed Lopez a ton tonight,he'd have given Camby at least some form of resistance in the paint.

 

[GorrilaLips]

oh crap!

 

[Proteus]

Oh geez. Nash chokes with a horrible shot selection.

 

[95pro]

ill advised shot by nash, he's good but he was just too far out


okay, now we're done

 

[mjb21aztd]

darnit really nash come on bro

 

[Billy Bob]

My heart just skipped a beat

 

[ninous26]

Whats Happening?

 

[jagu]

Have to say that the Suns BARELY lost on a night where they were off from downtown inside and everywhere.

 

[Folster]

The Suns tease us yet at the end.

 

[mjb21aztd]

god suns horrible job tonight we better get game 2, just sucks to were the first home team to lose in the playoff's sob disgusting

 

[mojorizen7]

Somebody dig up the SUNS franchise home playoff record.

 

[GorrilaLips]

Whats Happening?

richardson hits 3, down by 3...

blazers shoot free throw (2) from bayless...he misses both, we get the ball...

nash shoots 3 to tie.....misses hard, we foul....

we lose.

 

[Griffin]

Well Nash had to put up that shot quickly before Portland realized they ought to foul there. Blazers gave the Suns plenty of chances to win this game, but we kept shooting and missing low-percentage 3's.

 

[AfroSuns]

Looks like Grant Hill is cursed to never get out of a 1st round series

 

[Proteus]

Utterly pathetic.

Leave it to the Suns to be the only home team to lose and to a team without its best player.

 

[95pro]

we must find a better rotation to stop miller, barbs and nash on the court together was not good for us.
we need more dragic and hill on bayless and miller.

 

[GorrilaLips]

Utterly pathetic.

Leave it to the Suns to be the only home team to lose and to a team without its best player.

that team without it's best player is 2-0 against us at home.

 

[slinslin]

Positives we outrebounded them despite shooting horribly and getting up 10 more shots.
