And yet we won the season series 2-1, including winning a game without Roy.

That was before the allstar break.

the regular season is old news.



30 point demolition vs. fluke win

we will see.

Wouldn't surprise me to see Portland win another game or 2.
Phoenix is a one trick pony.

Portland is a no trick pony.

minneapolisFunq said:

How'd they manage to win 50 games in spite of amassing 311 games missed due to injury?

Thats a good question.

but the regular season means nothing right now.

1-1

Suns have all the momentum and shall should crush the inferior blazers with no remorse.

minneapolisFunq said:

The regular season may mean nothing, but it indicates (along with Game 1) that Portland can beat Phoenix.

Let's go Mavs!!!...

minneapolisFunq said:

It's irrelevant. The Suns will be sitting home just like the
blazers when the NBA finals start.

Moonbeam said:

The Suns beat themselves in that game.

Jason Richardson 42 points

8-12 from 3

A one trick pony is all you need in a victory lap.

ha!

minneapolisFunq said:

Another thorough ass-whooping.

2-2

LOLZ!!!!!11 minne


Meanwhile, hopefully my Hawks can get back in their game so as not to let the Bucks get one.

Portland "fluked" its way to another win!

They're playing like wimps..

Moonbeam said:

Disappointing game.

The Suns have proved that they are capable of destroying the Blazers.

26% from 3 and Lamarcus Aldridge are to blame for this loss.

Suns should win in 6

minneapolisFunq said:

So far they're even, that's all you can say.

minneapolisFunq said:

And Portland has shown that it can win in Phoenix- twice this year already!

I'm not going to say that Portland will win the series, but it's not the walkover you are claiming it to be.

StarMon said:

So what else is new?

Moonbeam said:

It should be a walkover.

This series should be over right now.

The Suns need 2 regain the focus they had in games 2 and 3.

the team is following the lead of it's star..same shit every year..

^Dirk is playing well.

J.Kidd and the rest of the gang arent putting in enough work 2 get the job done.

minneapolisFunq said:

Crunch time Dirk disappears and stays outside..agreed about the rest of the guys stepping up..see what happens tonight

minneapolisFunq said:

No, it really shouldn't. Phoenix won 54 games this year. Portland won 50, including a 2-1 regular season series edge. As depleted as Portland has been, they're actually healthier now than they have been most of the year. Both are good teams.

Yes, it really should be.

Phoenix has obliterated the Blazers in the games they won.

Its a matter of the Suns staying focused and hitting shots.

26% from downtown last game, if they shot anywhere near the team average (41%) they could have easily walked away with the W.

The bench needs to step it up, they usually contribute from beyond the arc in a timely fashion but the lack of experience or whatever you want to call it is throwing them off. Channing Frye has been invisible in this series and Jared Dudley has no reason to be missing a majority of his attempts when he is 2nd in the league from range(percentage wise).

I expect a full recovery for the next game, Steve Nash doesnt turn the ball over 8 times very often.

SavonOsco said:

Spurs up 3-1.

minneapolisFunq said:

And it's not possible that Portland disrupted Phoenix's offensive gameplan with their defensive scheme, surely.

Do you give no credit to opposing teams for winning games?

I have seen nothing from the Blazers that really makes me think they are in control of the game.

The Suns have been getting open looks in every contest.

Defensive lapses and missed shots are the reason for 2 Blazer victories. (the blazers have failed to register a 20 point scorer in the losses)

The Suns have been competitive in every game while the Blazers laid down and got crushed when the threes were falling.


Phx should end all of this speculation tomorrow unless the TNT curse holds true

I swear that team is a pain in my ass..every year,the same shit

I guess that answers my question, then! You really are a basketball troll.
