Suns vs. Lakers game 3 thread

[TheMACHINE]

btw....game 1, fans were complaning about fouls when they actually shot more ft's then the lakers. keep that in mind.

[HarlemHeat37]

Barbosa and Frye shouldn't be on playoff teams..

FT discrepancy is always a poor argument when it comes to officiating, although I agree Phoenix has gotten the benefit of the doubt on calls tonight..(LA clearly did in the 1st 2 games though)

[tlongII]

Frye was able to commit a foul there. He's really filling out the stat sheet!

[TheMACHINE]

Frye was able to commit a foul there. He's really filling out the stat sheet!

:lol

[Killakobe81]

How can you complain about the free throw descrepancy when your team wont take it inside? the lakers are shooting everything from outside.

No we are not but we will win anyway ...

And I will NOT bitch about refs ...

[jag]

ok...so let make it fair and noone call out discrepency's with us when its the otehr way around. deal.

Haha find a post where I've bitched about the lakers getting a FT advantage. I can't speak for gray spurs fan.

[HarlemHeat37]

So they should be on the Spurs, is that right?

Wow, you came really soft there..

[DPG21920]

Lopez with no regard for human life!

[jag]

Shannon Brown looks like he's out there trying to make Bynum proud.

[BadOdor]

when did lopez become so good? I still remember him averaging more fouls than rebounds....

[HarlemHeat37]

Dragic got me 8 fucking points in the NBA fantasy game tonight, horrible..I had to choose between him and Lopez, I went with Dragic, horrible decision..

I guess I'll pick Lopez next game, even though he probably won't come close to what he's doing tonight IMO..

[Chieflion]

Huge 3 by J-Rich!

[tlongII]

It's going to be 2-1.

[BUMP]

J-Rich!

[DPG21920]

when did lopez become so good? I still remember him averaging more fouls than rebounds....

Have you watched anything besides Lost all year?

[jag]

Lopez makes Bynum look like a dead corpse.

Lou Amundson makes Bynum look like a corpse.

[Killakobe81]

Man Give Kobe a 2 min. rest

And Pau too just not at the same time ...

We need to stop the cross-match stuff it's killing us in transition ...since they playing zone and we went small just matchup to whomever some late switches in transition have killed us ...

[Killakobe81]

It's going to be 2-1.

Kobe AND Fisher will have some say in that ...trust me.

[jag]

Check out Marv's rug

[tlongII]

Kobe AND Fisher will have some say in that ...trust me.

Nope.

[blkroadrunners]

Suns finding their stride.

[jag]

We got this.

[pauls931]

Armare, don't drive on foreign players, you know what will happen...

[Killakobe81]

Game is NOT over ...

[pauls931]

refs going to save the lakers this game...

[LakerHater]

wow!

[DPG21920]

Foul?

[mogrovejo]

Refs taking over the game for LA.

[pauls931]

Kobe digging into the bruce bowen book of D there...

[DPG21920]

Fisher is so mad! His fouls have so much toughness in them.

[resistanze]

Damn, Nash. Ugly.

[jag]

Wtf is nash doing?

[Killakobe81]

Good shit ... stop FT's

[BadOdor]

sons it's about time stern told the refs to give the lakers some ft's!

[Warlord23]

The Suns are getting nothing off the pick and roll

[mogrovejo]

Kobe clears space with his off arm and gets the foul. Only with LA.

[Kriz-Maxima]

Finally an exciting game.

[pauls931]

hmm could use me a tina turner crack whore...

[BUMP]

Amare playing like a beast

:clap:clap:clap

[mogrovejo]

Gasol has no hopes of stopping Stoudemire without fouling. He wasn't called for half of the fouls he commited.

[resistanze]

:lol Odumb.

[pauls931]

Kobe clears space with his off arm and gets the foul. Only with LA.

Seen Gasol and Odom do the same this game.

[Killakobe81]

LOL Pau calling out Odom ....

[Chieflion]

See ya next game, Lamar. You are outta here.

[resistanze]

It's Raining Bricks.

[DPG21920]

Amare's Mom's hair reminds me of this:

[LakerHater]

we got this.

...sure?

[Chieflion]

Huge shot by Nash. Suns lead by 10!

[resistanze]

Fucking Nash and his perfect shooting form.

[Giuseppe]

No defense. None. Gd it.

[DPG21920]

I am waiting for Fisher's fury to explode.

[Killakobe81]

Well looks like the Suns will get one ...

IDK know why Phil never gave Kobe or Pau a rest and NOW we have only 1 game between this and next ...

Ahh well ...I try not to question ...PJ

[Banzai]

game..oh well.

[TampaDude]

I still have the feeling the Lakers will win this game. I'm thinking Kobe or Fish with the GW at the buzzer.

[mogrovejo]

...sure?

Why are you making questions to Lakaluva? The Lakers are struggling, he won't be around for awhile if they don't come back.

[PGDynasty24]

Seen Gasol and Odom do the same this game.

And I've seen a bunch of ticky tack and moving screens by suns all game. So shut the fuck up

[jag]

And I've seen a bunch of ticky tack and moving screens by suns all game. So shut the fuck up

Uh oh here we go

[LakerHater]

Ahh well ...I try not to question ...PJ

I'm baffled why Kobe got NO rest for the half.

[DPG21920]

LA's decision to chuck up a ton of 3's instead of attacking the zone is what did them in.

[HarlemHeat37]

Fisher is so mad! His fouls have so much toughness in them.

:lol

[TampaDude]

...and here come the whistles...

[BUMP]

I never thought a zone had a chance against LA :lol

[DPG21920]

Phil probably thought this was a must win, so he decided to go all out with Kobe's minutes. Just did not work out, but the game was close enough where the decision had to be made.

[Ashy Larry]

six points in six minutes against the Suns defense ?????


Great adjustment by Gentry

[DPG21920]

100 vbookie dollars Amare does something stupid to try and get 40 pts. If that is a foul on Amare, then LA should have a lot more offensive fouls

[Chieflion]

Alvin Gentry with a double facepalm.

[resistanze]

Gasol getting bullied like it's June '08.

[BUMP]

:rollin

41 points!?!?! where was this in LA??

[pauls931]

GAsol couldn't figure out how to flop on that one...

[HarlemHeat37]

And I've seen a bunch of ticky tack and moving screens by suns all game. So shut the fuck up

:rollin


So does anyone know why Chuck Person is sitting behind Phil Jackson? Did the Lakers sign him as a shooting coach or something?

They hired him at the beginning of the season IIRC..

[jag]

:lol i hope LA doesn't go in there and pound that ass for game 4

[JamStone]

Lucky game, Amare.

[Chieflion]

Amare absolutely raped the Lakers frontcourt after letting Lamar Odom rape him in the ass for 2 games. Fair game.

[TampaDude]

Okay...NOW it's over...

[resistanze]

Ouch!

[BUMP]

Game....Set....Match! :smokin

[Chieflion]

J-Rich with a goodbye 3!

[DPG21920]

Fisher is so furious!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TampaDude]

Fuck you, Fish...you cocksucker...

[LakerHater]

Dirty Fisher!

[HarlemHeat37]

Great game from Amare, hopefully he's planning on doing it in LA too..

[mogrovejo]

If Phoenix wins the next game, LA panics.

[pauls931]

My floor is dirty, anyone in LA have a broom they can loan me?

[Killakobe81]

Great game Suns ...

No whining about refs for me ...

We let Amare get 40 we deserve 2 lose ...

[DPG21920]

Fisher's rage is about to drop 10 points in 10 seconds. Book it.

[tlongII]

The key was not allowing Frye to shoot in the 2nd half.

[Chieflion]

Good game. Hopefully, the next one would be way better.

[Capt Bringdown]

A champion would have had this game.
Celtics in 5.

[TampaDude]

Amar'e straight up shit all over the Lakers tonight...wow...

[resistanze]

I missed most of the game. Where the fuck was Bynum?

[Killakobe81]

My floor is dirty, anyone in LA have a broom they can loan me?

I said Lakers in 5 ... to start series I stand by it ...thought we could pull it out the way it was going though ...

I was wrong.

[pauls931]

Never dreamed I'd say this, but Robin Lopez saved the suns' asses this game.

[Chieflion]

I missed most of the game. Where the fuck was Bynum?
His shitty ass got sat down cause he kept fouling like a mad man.

[Giuseppe]

Great game Suns ...

No whining about refs for me ...

We let Amare get 40 we deserve 2 lose ...

Killa, with the goods, precise style.

[Venti Quattro]

Great game from the suns. Lakers need to take Game 4.

[Killakobe81]

A champion would have had this game.
Celtics in 5.

Do you even REMEMBER what a champion looks like?

It has BEEN a while ...

[duncan228]

[TheMACHINE]

Barbosa and Frye shouldn't be on playoff teams..

FT discrepancy is always a poor argument when it comes to officiating, although I agree Phoenix has gotten the benefit of the doubt on calls tonight..(LA clearly did in the 1st 2 games though)

oh yah....how many FT's did the suns have vs the lakers in game 1?

[tlongII]

Does Craig Sager seem like a Laker shill to anyone else?

[Giuseppe]

A bad loss. Opens up this series and dents us badly in the shadow of the Celtics.

Fuck me.

[DJ Mbenga]

42 points on 18 attempts. thats effecient. lakers 17 turnovers shooting 26 % from 3. how the hell were they even close?

[TampaDude]

Fuck.

The.

Lakers.

:ihit

[DPG21920]

oh yah....how many FT's did the suns have vs the lakers in game 1?

FT's aren't everything.

[Ghazi]

anybody got a broom?

Guess not

[DPG21920]

42 points on 18 attempts. thats effecient. lakers 17 turnovers shooting 26 % from 3. how the hell were they even close?

Because Fisher got angry.

[DJ Mbenga]

FT's aren't everything.

all the ft's did is give the suns an advantage not the victory. what killed the lakers was shooting 20 something % from 3, nearly 20 turnovers.

[LakerHater]

32 friggin 3s

[TampaDude]

all the ft's did is give the suns an advantage not the victory. what killed the lakers was shooting 20 something % from 3, nearly 20 turnovers.

This game could easily have been a blowout by the Suns.

Game 4 is gonna be a war!!!

[mogrovejo]

42 points on 18 attempts. thats effecient. lakers 17 turnovers shooting 26 % from 3. how the hell were they even close?

By fouling on every possession and only being called in half of them.

Refs can't keep allowing Gasol to defend with his hands so much. Every time Stoudemire faces up on him it's an easy basket for Phoenix unless Gasol fouls.

[Giuseppe]

Look at film overnite, get back at it in the morning. Nothin' else we can do.

[TheMACHINE]

FT's aren't everything.

im not saying they are....im saying dont fucking whine that the refs favored the lakers in a game that the suns shot 6 more FT's, then come in here acting like we cant say shit about the refs in a game that the Suns shot 22 more fts.

[Pelicans78]

Gasol has trouble guarding the smaller quicker PFs. That's why Odom is so important to this team. Gasol is really a center on most teams. How many 7'0 250 lbs PFs have we ever seen?

Kobe played a strong game, but no one else really helped him.

[Venti Quattro]

Save for Pau and Kobe, the rest of the team sucked in this game. Nothing to see here, they deserved to lose.

[Giuseppe]

The zone skull fucked us, got in our gourd, then we just tried to asshole it with the 3's. That's weak.

[Ashy Larry]

you know what happened ... according to most Laker fans, the refs cost the Lakers the game. That's three playoff games they cost us.

but on the real. Amar'e was busy and active and going to the rack. All the fouls on Bynum in the first half were legit.

Lakers were cruising then the Suns switched to a zone and the Lakers panicked especially in the second quarter.

Adjusted in the third and the game was close then in the fourth, thought they were from Cape Canaveral and started launching threes

30+ three attempts .....

gotta give Phoenix credit, they adjusted in the second and won the game. Most of Amar'e free throw attempts were legit. Dude was aggressive and the Lakers settled for jumpers. You don't get fouled shooting free throws

[ducks]

lopez got 20 that is what killed the lakers not amares 50

oh and the bench of the lakers suck on the road like most teams

[ducks]

Gasol has trouble guarding the smaller quicker PFs. That's why Odom is so important to this team. Gasol is really a center on most teams. How many 7'0 250 lbs PFs have we ever seen?

Kobe played a strong game, but no one else really helped him.

odom rolled over and dies
odom makes the lakers great
only when he is is motivated

does amare need to tell the media this was a typical game for him

[Ashy Larry]

The zone skull fucked us, got in our gourd, then we just tried to asshole it with the 3's. That's weak.

try to tell that shit to LG ...... the reason why the Lakers lost:

1. the refs

2. the refs

3. the refs

[Giuseppe]

Just thank Christ Amare pissed away the first two games.

[ducks]

difference in the game ... Robin Lopez and the zone. They got so many wide open looks and the only one who stuck their shots was D Fish .....

[ducks]

Never dreamed I'd say this, but Robin Lopez saved the suns' asses this game.

yeah even with amare 40 they would have lost without lopez
amare needs a shaq still:lmao

[Killakobe81]

Lopez balled his ass off ..... the second quarter won it for the Suns. that zone was ice

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Well good win, but it's a guarantee they'll have a plan to bust that zone on Tuesday so Phoenix better not hope that carries them to another win.

[cobbler]

With Bynum only playing 8 mins all Amare has to do is get by Pau and its a layup. Unforced TO's, free throws, and jacking 3's cost the Lakers. Lamar and Artest didn't show. The Suns were more aggressive and deserved the win.

Lakers were on cruise control and this game like the 4th game against the Thunder is a good thing. Lakers close it out in game 5.

[Giuseppe]

This is the only decent Laker's Board that I've ever heard of.

[pauls931]

Well good win, but it's a guarantee they'll have a plan to bust that zone on Tuesday so Phoenix better not hope that carries them to another win.

Might still work if the bench would do something. At least they kept it close somehow to give nash and Jrich some rest.

[tlongII]

Man, I think I'm done there. It's a damn shame I gotta go to a Spurs Forum to get unbiased Laker talk .......:depressed

I could give you a Blazer site to go to. I wouldn't exactly say the Laker talk there is unbiased though...

[D2Procon]

Don't worry Laker fans, Stern will make sure this series doesn't go more than 5-6 games.

[TheMACHINE]

Man, I think I'm done there. It's a damn shame I gotta go to a Spurs Forum to get unbiased Laker talk .......:depressed

the way bynum is hobbling around, it wouldn't have made any difference. The Lakers just didn't show any patience and started hoisting threes

[VivaPopovich]

energy and momentum was what won the game for the suns tonight

the same cheap tricks we've always seen. nash runs around like a moron draws a double and kicks it out. cheap

i hope derek elbows him in his other eye. stupid ugly looking alien

anyways, this was a win that a desperate team down 0-2 always win. they just more energy. you really didnt see anything special out there

lakers still will win the series

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Might still work if the bench would do something. At least they kept it close somehow to give nash and Jrich some rest.


If Gentry would just fuckin bench Barbosa and play Hill w/ Dragic and Dudley to get the lineup that owned so many teams, the bench would come alive.

[cobbler]

Well good win, but it's a guarantee they'll have a plan to bust that zone on Tuesday so Phoenix better not hope that carries them to another win.

I have said it for 5 years. The best way to defend the Lakers is to zone them. Instead of going inside they try to shoot 3's over it. With that said, they eventually figure it out and adjust. You have to mix it up and bring it here and there.

[Giuseppe]

Don't worry Laker fans, Stern will make sure this series doesn't go more than 5-6 games.

Thank, Christ.

[ducks]

Shaq got them to the WCF?

amare needs any big to go off

[Ashy Larry]

I could give you a Blazer site to go to. I wouldn't exactly say the Laker talk there is unbiased though...

I think that's why I have really become attached to this forum because we all have our squads and we all talk shit to one another, but we all, for the most part, tell it like it is ....... what's the blazer site?

[Capt Bringdown]

The Spurs had no answers for the Suns zone. More than surprised to see the mighty Lakers come up clueless as well. Hats off to Gentry.

Game 4 should be very interesting. Now, when is it scheduled, next month? FFS, they don't call it the second season for nothing.

[ducks]

phil just said bynum might be given game 4 off

[cobbler]

Don't worry Laker fans, Stern will make sure this series doesn't go more than 5-6 games.

We are not worried.

Well my theory has always been let Kobe have a huge 1st quarter so his teammates start to check out mentally and stop looking for their shot on offense. IMO, against LA, a lot of the game depends on the 1st quarter. If you can get Bynum, Artest and Odom to go into auto-pilot it's usually hard for them to get their intensity level back up.

[Giuseppe]

phil just said bynum might be given game 4 off

It's hindsight, but, he should have been given off after the Utah series ended thru until tonite's game. But, that is water under the bridge.

[cobbler]

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

phil just said bynum might be given game 4 off


I really hope that happens. LA's pick and roll D fell apart tonight because there was no Bynum congesting the paint.

[DJ Mbenga]

i wonder if they use that zone again. they are basically saying "shoot open 3's. " thats the strategy , hope they miss. also i wonder how the refs will call amare and his drives. ed rush is horrific for the lakers.

[Ashy Larry]

if Gentry had done this is the first quarter, this game would have been a blow out ..... Lakers just couldn't knock down open threes ...... and they were not allowed to get in the paint.

time for Phil to earn that 12 million

[Giuseppe]

Phil had to know the zone was coming. To not have a strategy for it on the fly tonite is inexcusable.

[Ashy Larry]

Remember, blazer sites are often offline as thier mods attend their parades.

speaking of parades, if the Suns win the West, are they gonna throw them another parade if Boston taps that ass like they did against Chicago ......

Lakers have ALWAYS struggled against the zone. They toss it around the perimiter unil the clock hits 5 then throw up the obligatory desperation 3. Simply put Pau at the high post and the zone would be toast. He cannot play low block when a tema is zoning.

[Venti Quattro]

That turnover by Kobe when he mishandled the ball which led to the J-rich three, to me, was the turning point of the game.

touchee! Once Amare got past Pau, as he did many times in games 1 & 2 he still had to deal with Drews length. A little different when it artest or brown standing there.

[Ashy Larry]

Phil had to know the zone was coming. To not have a strategy for it on the fly tonite is inexcusable.

yeah, definitely agree with that point ..... when they go up against the Lakers one on one, they can't match up, but this zone is really bothering the Lakers


damn @ Nash with the broken nose .......

Nash AKA Glass Joe

[Giuseppe]

That turnover by Kobe when he mishandled the ball which led to the J-rich three, to me, was the turning point of the game.

It was the back breaker, yes, but, the turning point was Phil's failure to counter the zone. He'd been warned repeatedly it was coming.

Yup exactly. Also without Bynum LA doesn't have much of a height advantage at all. Gasol and Odom aren't any taller than Amare and Lopez.

[Giuseppe]

You still got skunked by the Suns, sweetheart.

It's not like it's rocket science. Beating the zone is simple. You put a big in the high post (Pau) and get him the ball early in the clock. It's that simple. Thye would tear it apart. Passing the ball around the perimiter for 20 seconds is idiotic.

And what gives you the right to chime in? I thought you were fixated on some off season pipe dream.

[Giuseppe]

Well Cubby, I didn't show up till after the Suns won tonight. I'd look kinda like an ass if I showed up, win secured, front running and talking shit.

Nonsense. So what, your team won. There is no shame in arriving after the fact. Everybody handles winning & losing different. There is no correct way. It's a very personal thing.

[xellos88330]

That's a losers mentality right there. If they go to the finals that means we got like a better 5th place finish. :lol

Why should I have a winners mentality when my team lost... badly? How would a "winner" react if you can dare to call yourself that after being embarrassed by a team that your team should have at least competed with, react to it? Get angry? Seems like an aweful waste of energy for a game that I don't even play in.

When the playoffs are over for everyone, then I can start looking forward to next season. Until then, I will root for PHX.

I'm plenty happy about the win if that's how you're saying I should be acting, but I'm not gonna mouth off when the Suns are down in the series. If the Suns tie it up on Tuesday, I'll start getting cocky again.

tell Phil to bench Bynum for game 4, I want a 2-2 series so I can get some false hope for a few days.

I think you overrate Bynum somewhat. He's had the worst +/- in the series so far and when LA made their run in the 4th of game 2, he wasn't even on the floor despite being 5 for 5 with 13 points, which tells you Phil isn't comfortable with him.

He may serve his purpose by clogging up the lane with his size, but he in no way transforms LA's interior defense to extent that some people claim.

Mid, where do you get your balls big enough to come in here and talk shit after the Suns beat you flat? You nervy bastard, you.

I'm guessing the winner's mentality would be to pout like a bitch and stop watching the POs.:wakeup

Well, from a competitive standpoint I never got it. If a team beats my team, either one I am on or one I am a fan of, I want them crushed in the next round. I want them to feel the pain they gave me. There are exceptions to this if say the team going on is representing the conference or league.

Exactly. If Phoenix loses, I will be upset because I would feel that the Spurs would have matched up better and PHX didn't belong there in the first place. I would rather watch PHX succeed because the salt won't be poured on my wounds.

Suns/Gentry better stick with Lopez the rest of the series, Frye has no confidence

[Giuseppe]

That's twice, butthead.

It's not going to matter.

derek fisher broke nash's nose....for real that was a dirty azz play and was intentional...derek should be suspended for the rest of the playoffs. this is similar to rondo swiping brad millers faceast year. it is so easy to make a play look unintentional.

[Ghazi]

Fisher's like Bowen without defensive prowess. Dirty, cheap, flopper, etc.

Yeah like when Fisher took an intentional elbow to the head from Robin Lopez and Lopez tried to cover it up by saying he was just raising his hands while running down the court? :lmao

If you care about a cleanly played game why aren't you crying about that?

[Giuseppe]

Lopez clipped Fish earlier. That was not going to stand unpunished.

[scanry]

Suns fans really need to grow a pair and actually troll once in a while. You just beat the Lakers, and you guys are all in the opinion that the "Well the Suns will bend over and take it in 5 rather than 4."

Geez you'll are playing in the WCF!!!

[mavsfan1000]

Someone needs to give Fisher a dirty foul next game.

[Giuseppe]

.......think twice, that's how Nash got his snout broke last night.

[MacGyver]

Wow. Amare travels a lot!

[D2Procon]

Don't worry Laker fans, David Stern was on vacation, and according to my sources he's abck in his office.

[Giuseppe]

.......I'm jiggy with that.

[Allanon]

I'm just glad I missed that massacre. Got it on DVR and will probably just hit delete.

Suck A$$ Lakers.

[namlook]

Robin Lopez already did. He intentionally elbowed Fisher to the head.
