Game Day: Suns (21-16) @ Wolves (5-28), Wed 1/7/15

[Cap]

Len's 10th win as a starter. Party!

Morris supposedly apologized to the team and on Twitter for going off on the coach. Hornacek didn't seem very upset in his post game interview saying it was just an emotional player in the heat of the moment.

I fell asleep in the second half, long day. Can someone tell me what happened with Marcus and Hornacek?

Here is the video. [video][/video]

I just watched the 2nd half. I still don't know what happened. Looks like he kind of lost his man on defense, got scored on and the next trip down got a technical? I'm guessing Hornacek told him to calm down because the twins have been racking up technicals like crazy and he just snapped?

[Wally_West]

Pretty much. https://twitter.com/paulcoro/status/553044937412210690

why did len shoot that three?

[Gladiator]

Bad look from Marcus to do that but he made good in a quick and impressive manner.

I think it looks worse than what it is. I think players and coaches get into heated arguments all the time. That was probably more heated then the usual stuff but I am sure this type of stuff that players and coaches go through all the time on every team. Difference is this was during a game and caught on video.

Prediction for the second half. Len gets a foul in the first 2 minutes and leaves to the game to never return.

Boy were you wrong.

[Superbone]

Poor Wolves. They gave it everything they had but couldn't pull it out in the end. The Suns tried their best to help them for three quarters.

[Superbone]

Len is getting ridonkulous with his consecutive 5 block games.

Regardless, both Morris twins need to get their emotions under control. It hasn't cost us a game yet, but it will and probably soon. Also they are rapidly approaching suspension lvl for amount of technicals. Lets get this fixed now before it becomes a big problem.

I agree. I hate how prone they are to argue with refs, even if they are right often enough. Same with Bledsoe when he hits the floor when he penetrates and doesn't get back.

From the article Wally posted: LINK

Morris was upset that no foul had been called when he was hit in the nose and picked up a technical foul during a time out. In the Suns' first national television game, he could be seen yelling about it to Hornacek. When Hornacek did not side with Morris' anger, Morris began yelling at his coach until player development assistant Corey Gaines guided him away. Morris did not return to the game.

"It was heat of the moment," Morris said. "Coach knows I've got a lot of respect for him. As soon as the game was over, I apologized to him and the team, especially the younger guys for them having to see that. I felt like I got hit in the nose and my nose was bleeding and he had took me out so I was really upset about it.

Yep, completely agree.

With Goran's move to the 2-guard spot almost full time he's looking more and more like Ginobili.

Cue Charles Barkley.

Idk what happen to our offense but it's disappeared tonight.

2nd night of a back to back easy to see this one coming, meaning staying close. I still fully expect us to win but it will come down to the last 5mins of the 4th.

Nailed it.
