Heartbreak hotel!
If you're the Suns, you almost don't want the 8 seed after a loss like this. You can't even beat the Spurs without Duncan or Manu? What chance would they have in a playoff series? The Spur dominance of the Suns continues.

Re: Suns News: Week of 4/7 to 4/13
I'm not a huge Melo fan, but I'd take him here. As INFy says, he would be such a gigantic talent upgrade for us that we'd have to do it.

I didn't realize Patty Mills was this good.

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
I would rather pay OKC or even the Spurs than the Clips. For whatever reason I hate that LAC matchup for us. Maybe because they have a dominant offensive big man.

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
Here's a weird question: Would we even want the 6 seed? I really don't want to play the Clippers. I'd honestly rather play the Thunder. LAC just seems like a bad matchup for us.

Re: Suns News: Week of 4/7 to 4/13
I think the Spurs will rest EVERYbody. They just played Dallas last night, and Parker is gimpy to begin with right now. So despite the possible lack of Dragic, I think we have a good chance.

Re: Around the League: Week of 4/7 - 4/13
Mavs up 2 at the half. Spurs are not playing Tony Parker, it looks like. Duncan got stuffed pretty hard by Sam Dalembert on the Spurs' last offensive possession of the half. Or maybe it was Father Time blocking that one.

Re: Around the League: Week of 4/7 - 4/13
Who else is watching this Spurs-Mavs game? I am cheering hard for the Spurs. I really want those Mavs out of the playoffs (and us IN).

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
This isn't meant as a rebuttal, but if you want some Sun fan goosebumps, go rewatch this clip of Dragic whipping out his dragon and breathing fire all over the Spurs in the 2010 playoffs. One of the great Suns moments of all time.

Re: Suns News: Week of 4/7 to 4/13
Yeah those metrics on Frye are one of the oddest mismatches of advanced metrics and the "eye test." When I watch Frye play, in some games he's great because he spaces the floor, but in many games he's just kind of out there. The Morrii or other forwards seem more productive out there to my...

Re: 2014 NBA Draft
McDonough gets an A+++ for this FA acquisitions so far, and generally an A for his trades. I will wait and see when it comes to the draft. Drafting well is extremely hard and also takes some luck. Len could still develop into a useful player. Let's see what our FO does this June and July; that'll me...

BTW, Mavs vs. Spurs tonight on TNT is going to be an awesome game. I hope Pop actually plays anybody.

Re: Suns News: Week of 4/7 to 4/13
Memphis was great against Miami. I think they have a decent chance to win out. I am really watching Dallas more than anybody. I'm hoping they drop a game or two to give us a better chance.

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH
I'd love to get into the playoffs and face the Spurs in the first round. They'd stomp us, but it'd be a great experience for our guys. And Dragic has some experience getting hot against the Spurs, so maybe he could relive that and have 1-2 amazing games against them. I do think we match up better ag...

Re: Around the League: Week of 4/7 - 4/13
I do wonder how well we would have done this year if we'd kept Gortat. That is the one trade I question. The league seems to pretty much unanimously agree that we "won" the deal because we got a first-rounder which are coveted, but I don't know. If we're trying to succeed and win in the pl...

Re: Around the League: Week of 4/7 - 4/13
Memphis just beat Miami. Darn. And Lebron and Bosh even played and everything. Miami "tried." It's too bad. So we are still only 1 game up on them, hmm.

Re: Game Day: Suns (46-31) @ Pelicans (32-45) , Wed 4/9/14
A win's a win, but they didn't look great tonight. What did impress me is that when they need a stop down the stretch, or need a crucial bucket, they so often find a way to get them. That's encouraging in terms of possible playoff games. I remember so many frustrating years where the team couldn't g...

Also, random thought. Every time the Pelicans or Eric Gordon's name come up, I think to myself:
PHEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.
Can you imagine if we sunk however many million dollars into that guy?
