Suns at Bulls Game Thread

[Black Jesus]

great block!

 

[Sovereignz]

What was that, 3 fouls on one possession? Blah.

For having our "old" guy out, we sure seem to look a hell of a lot older without him.

 

[az1965]

How embarassing...

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 43-63 with 6:52 left in the 3rd quarter.

Suns shooting 37% and the Bulls 51%.

 

[TJ]

Game would be more competitive with Shaq in there.

Suggestion for the coaching staff: when you already have one starter out for personal reasons, don't hold another one out for "rest."

Rest him against the Grizzlies at home on Monday

The thing I don't understand is that he played 11 minutes.. two nights ago? That's not enough rest?

 

[Black Jesus]

did i mention i dont like barbosa?

agreed. he should play every night possible... get his fat ass in shape

 

[az1965]

Layups, jumpers,... at will... as if playing around dummies

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 43-65 with 5:26 left in the 3rd quarter. Ugh.

 

[Black Jesus]

Blackhole barbosa takes a 3 with 2 hands in his face while Lopez was wide oepn down low. there he goes again, blackhole barbosa.

I hate Barbosa. I 100% think we would be within 10-12 if I was out there instead of him.

Get a grip, the suns are being outrebounded by 15, LB has nothing to do with that. This is a team effort, and the halfcourt offense sucks, it just stinks tonight.

 

[Cheesebeef]

man, i was wondering if it was just me or I was being too hard on Barbs this season, but holy good god has he sucked.

we'll see how long the "resting Shaq" on back to backs last. When I heard Barnes was still out I thought it was a questionable decision. Unfortunately, looks like I was right.

that's okay - we're still figuring this whole thing out. as long as we wrap up the roadie with a W tomorrow I still like where we are this early in the season.

I'm watching it. Of course Noah has been a beast on the boards but a lot of that is him throwing it off the backboard to himself. We could use Shaq out there on the boards but oh well. We would be in this game if we didnt have Barbosa out there. No question in my mind. 10-12 pts.

Co-sign everything.

well speaking of breaks, the team we can't beat lost tonight against the bobcats.

 

[az1965]

Barbosa Min 11:32, FG 0-6, Ast 1, PF 3, Pts 0
Diaw Min 14:24, FG 0-1, Reb 0, Ast 0, Pts 0

Now how much are these guys making???

I hate both. They should have been shipped with D'Antoni

 

[nowagimp]

the bulls are shooting 54% from the field, way above their season average of 40%. The D took the night off.

 

[nowagimp]

Barbosa Min 11:32, FG 0-6, Ast 1, PF 3, Pts 0
Diaw Min 14:24, FG 0-1, Reb 0, Ast 0, Pts 0

Not one play has been set up for Diaw in the offense, not one. There is no excuse for that bullcrap.

 

[Black Jesus]

you cant have Dragic, Barbosa, Bell and Diaw on the court at teh same time and expect to be competitive.

 

[az1965]

Doesn't that tell you something about the 2nd unit?

Also, Barbosa sucks no matter who he is playing with.

 

[Black Jesus]

nice start to the fourth... im sick of Dragic, is he really better than Singletary?

 

[zett]

spurs down 12 with 1:45 left in the game

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 59-79 after the 3rd quarter.

The Suns are shooting 39%, the Bulls 53% with 5/10 3 pointers.
