Game Thread: Suns vs. Heat

Alright DEFENSE

COME ON SUNS

I said early today to friends, only way Suns win tonights game is if they shoot really well

They simply didn't. Pretty much no issue with shots being taken, but have to shoot better than 44% to beat a team like Miami..........its not rocket science

Only Green and Tucker showed up tonight, honorable mention to Dragic, who did all he could do under constant grabbing/pressure by Miami

HAHAHAHA eat shit LeBron

Damn timeout

hell of a game by Plumlee tonight

Morris brothers didn't help, 5 for 16 combined. But when I see Plumlee with 2 pts in 14 min, I go..............he is not an NBA starter. And you can tell management is figuring that out

in the playoffs heading into the break
need to regroup for the last 30 so games of the year

Pull the trigger, let's get Gasol. We could make a playoff run with him. We win tonight's game with Gasol.

I hate how Albert acknowledges the existence of the other teams fanbase at US Airways Center. They should be ignored.

People rooting for the other team at Suns home games are 'persona non grata' that's Latin for GTFO.

I keep looking back at us all wanting to tank this year! Love my Suns

The Suns tried hard but this game exposed some major flaws in the team. The biggest weakness is center and power forward. This team will never win a championship with soft big guys. I thought Len played well in the small stretch he was in and really changed the game with his defense, but for some reason the Suns barely play him. Frye and Plumlee were really bad and the worst by far were the Morris brothers. Markieff Morris' inability to get that rebound with 2:20 left in the game when he had position was a game changer. The Suns were down by three and got the stop and Bosh ripped the ball away from him. Then he went on to make several key turnovers right after that. He was embarrassing.

I think this game solidifies that the Suns should trade for a reliable scoring big man, and the only available one is Pau Gasol. I watched a lot of footage of that guy Greg Monroe and I have no interest in him. He can barely jump and is like a poor man's Zach Randolph. I also would not trade for the real Zach Randolph because he is signed for a huge amount of money next year. Pau makes the most sense because he is an expiring deal, a proven champion and can take over games down the stretch, and is a real center. He would also most likely improve the Suns rebounding so much. The Suns got out-rebounded tonight by a team without a real center. Frye and Morris were atrocious rebounding the basketball tonight. It was sad.

Lebron really does get almost all the calls. Then cries when one doesn't go his way.

Im tired of Tucker getting an offensive rebound and then trying to force back up over like 3 people instead of passing it out with a fresh shot clock.
