The Suns return home to face the Spurs on Wednesday after coming off a Tuedsay loss to the Lakers.

The game will be televised on ESPN and FSAZ. Start time is scheduled to begin at 8:30 p.m. Arizona time.

The Suns have lost their last three games and eighth in the last nine games.

Booker probably won't play in this game, Bordow posted this just before the Lakers game...

Chriss starts at center

Possible Len trade or a match-up thing?

Watching the replay of the Robert Horry hip check on Nash in pregame... it still sickens me.

The suspension of Amare and Diaw likely cost the Suns a championship.

Wesphal compared the Robert Horry incident with Nash to the Raja Bell incident with Kobe.

No way.

Kobe had been elbowing Bell in the face all game long. Horry delivered a cheap shot just because.

This isn’t fair at all. In those unis the Spurs are basically invisible.

Suns trail 9-0 at the 8:04 mark in the 1st quarter.

16-2. Solid start.

 

[Mainstreet]

Len enters the game.

Chriss... Ugh. If you told me he was a late 1st rounder, or a 2nd round pick I'd feel better about him...

 

[devilalum]

This is horrible.

This game is damn near unwatchable.

 

[Mainstreet]

It's like the Suns mailed in the loss.

From the beginning, I didn't like Chriss at center.

It’s one thing to shoot 2-20 but to simultaneously be outtebounded 5-18 is something special.

 

[devilalum]

NINE!?!?!

Plus 9 points is the fewest points the Suns scored in a quarter this season.

Down by 28-9 at the end of the 1st quarter. The Suns are like a bunch of 8-year olds dressing up in their fathers's uniforms . . . then playing the Spurs.

Jackson with a sweet jam leaning back to get the ball.

I can’t believe anyone is willing to let McD decide the fate of the next five years by making a huge pick and new coach decision.

That said, tank you very much again tonight!

And it gets worse. Ulis has back spasms and likely will not return.

Ladies and gentlemen I give you your tank poster child!

And I ask myself sadly . . . is that really worse?
