Eh, I just knew I was pissing everyone off in the blog because I was in desperate "Suns fold again on national TV" mode and making every excuse possible.
I'm still not happy D'Antoni didn't use Skinner to save some fouls (and minutes) for Shaq and Amare. And my prediction that we would see the "extent of his bench" with 2:52 left in the first quarter came true. That's when he had Giricek, Barbosa, and Diaw on the floor and they were the only 3 bench guys that played.
I'm hoping he only played Bell 43 mins, Shaq 38 mins, and Nash 37 mins today because he desperately wanted this win and is not something he'll do in the future. Somehow, I think I'm going to keep hoping...
