Game Day: Suns (5-4) @ Clippers (4-3), Sat 11/15/14
Time: 8:30 pm Arizona (7:30 pm PT / 10:30 pm ET)
Place: STAPLES Center, Los Angeles, CA
TV: FSAZ/PT
The Clippers have been underwhelming so far this season. Let's hope the Suns aren't the Washington Generals to their Harlem Globetrotters. We are going up against Carey's favorite, Chris Paul, as well as .net favorite big man flopper, Blake Griffin.
Go Suns!!!

Watch Matt Barnes break out of his shooting slump against us. I hate that we're always a get well team for players that are struggling.
But yeah, would love to see Bledsoe take CPMe's lunch money.

Everybody is saying how much the Clips are struggling this year so far, which is true to some degree. But they still have Chris Paul, who is still the league's best PG for my money. And they have Blake, who has put his head down and quietly improved his game for the past 2-3 years to the point where he's a really scary good PF. His D is good, his jump shot is crisp, and he just looks like a much more complete player than he was a few years ago. He's a legitimate MVP candidate if they do well this year.
I think the demise of the Clippers has been much exaggerated and that the season is still young.

I would like to see us dropping this game.
The team is deeply unbalanced, but as long as we keep a winning record and relatively competent against the big boys of the conference, the Front Office won't start exploring consolidating moves.
I'm also worried about them being infatuated with our assets, trying to keep raping the other team in a trade. After those early home runs, McD is not taking another GM off guard anytime soon, so he better starts to look for single hits, like Ed Davis. Lately, I keep hearing "Player X is not moving the needle enough to justify a trade for him..." , well I think if you are savvy about your hits, you still can get a Run home, is not always about connecting a home run.

The Suns will win big time. Afterwards, the clippers will rename themselves the Los Angeles Clippers of Anaheim, California.

even if Barnes does, he will probably turn the ball over for every shot he hits. Matt Barnes : Indy :: James Jones : Swingycarey wrote:Watch Matt Barnes break out of his shooting slump against us. I hate that we're always a get well team for players that are struggling.

Gonna be a tough game. Clippers gave a game away to the Spurs on Monday night. They've waited 4 days to redeem themselves. Suns cannot afford to have a flat start tonight. Got to "gang rebound" tonight too.
Go Suns !

No argument there - he's like Gerald Green in Indiana, only cranky with a fraction of the hops. Fucking guy played like worn-out sandpaper here.....Indy wrote:even if Barnes does, he will probably turn the ball over for every shot he hits.

Alright, head count time - someone's gotta be held accountable.
