Suns vs. 1987

[Jeremy]

The Milwaukee Bucks haven't won in Phoenix since February 21, 1987.

Suns had a 24 point lead, but as always this season, they let the Bucks back in it, closing it to a 3 point game. Suns back up by 10 now.

Pho needs some trade to make things interesting if they don't plan on changing for two years. They need someone who wants to play D to at least help a bit like Marion and Bell used to do. Won't put them over the top, but at least would put them in position to establish and keep leads.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Great a 3 point game again at the end of the quarter. C'mon bench you need to start the 4th quarter well.

[Jeremy]

We definitely need some sort of change, if we can't even get the annual home Bucks win--a streak that dates back to the Suns drug scandal days even!

[Jeremy]

Bucks up 1!

[Xylus]

Dear god the Suns suck.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

This shit is pretty pathetic given that Skiles isn't even coaching tonight.

[Jeremy]

Suns are worse than the Cardinals, giving away huge leads.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Barbosa, you suck.

[Jeremy]

Any decent team would be blowing us out. We might win, but I don't feel like we deserve to win the game, that's for sure.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

If the Suns lose this game you've gotta wonder how much better they are than last year.

[Jeremy]

Barbosa, you suck.

The problem is that our record was way worse with him injured. And yet it seems like he never does anything right!

[Jeremy]

Nash is gonna have to keep shooting the rest of the game.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Our record was worse with him injured because of the teams we played during that stretch, not cause of his stanky nazi harboring ass.

[Jeremy]

Nash came out of the game?!?!

[Jeremy]

Never mind. ESPN.com problem.

[Jeremy]

Note to Suns: with a 5-point lead you don't jack up 3s!

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

J-RIch, Luke fuckin Ridnour is guarding you, get in the god dam post.

[Fpoonsie]

Wow. Um...

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

This is likely a win, but still, Milwaukee shot 39%, Phoenix shot 50%, why are they only up by 4?

Turnovers and Defensive Rebounding, just like every other game this season.

It was for the most part a rhetorical question out of frustration that that's been the story forever now and the team has a front office and fan base in love with a team that can shoot 60% and win by 2.

[pauls931]

I hate saying this, but the suns are soft (stop laughing spurs fans). Nothing more to it. I was hoping Gentry would be a tougher modified version of Dantoni, but they look the same, just without Marion and Bell to help on D.

When I read this, I thought this was the Suns vs Brandon Jennings' hairstyle thread...

LOL. The Suns' beat writer actually wrote in his blog this morning:


The Milwaukee Bucks have not won in Phoenix since Feb. 21, 1987, back when Brandon Jennings' hairstyle was cool.

Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" was No. 1 on the charts. A gallon of gas was 89 cents. A first-class stamp was 24 cents. Nobody had heard Michael Jackson's "Bad" yet. It's been a long time but John Lucas and Terry Cummings aren't walking through that door tonight.

Good to see Gentry get pissed off during the press conference.

where the bucks who they thought they were?

[pauls931]

Yikes, Nash had to score 30 for them to win, not a good sign. They're much better off when he scores around 18 or 20. Bench needs to step up, yuck...

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Na it wasn't really a senseless dumb rant, he just walked in and said, "Yeah I guess that technically counts as a win but I really don't care with how crappy they played." :lol

[pauls931]

Good to see Gentry get pissed off during the press conference.

Damn right he better be pissed, this is happening way to often, blowing huge leads. Glad I didn't get to watch this one. They're having a hard a time putting away crappy teams as elite ones at home.

[Darthkiller]

damn, that was a perfect pass by jennings, bogut was wide open under the basket , choose to do layup and failed miserably. would have been a tie game. anyone saw that?
