Time: 7:00 pm AZ (6:00 pm PT/9:00 pm ET)
Place: US Airways Center, Phoenix, AZ

Another tough night in the life of a Western conference team. Back home for one game to play the Grizzlies, a team we've had a very tough time beating the last couple of years.

Go Suns!!!

Markieff is coming off of back to back double-doubles, so let's hope that continues. He's also shooting 38% from the field the last, so let's hope that doesn't continue. If he can hit the boards and attack Z-Bo on the offensive end, the Suns have a good chance to walk away with a W.

Goran needs to rebound from his dreadful performance against GS.

Len vs. Gasol should be interesting.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

Fuck the Grizzlies. I'm tired of losing to these guys. Maybe they look past us or something & we can sneak a W out.
Go Suns!

They are a terrible matchup for us and always seem to give us fits. I don't have high hopes for this one. This game will probably make us feel frustrated and inadequate about our entire frontcourt, from Len to Plumlee to the Morrii. I bet Wright could hold his own on Gasol a bit but isn't bulky enough to defend Z-Bo.

Bad feeling about this one:

Grizz 104
Suns 93

The sting of the DBL OT loss is still there a bit...
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

Come on Alex, they aren't going to give you the ball if you put it low and get it stripped all the time.

Hornacek did not sit him as he's still in the game. Clearly they don't care & aren't learning.

RIDICULOUS move by Goran. That'll be on Sportscenter.

So Green is in for 1 offensive play and 1 defensive play. He turns the ball over on one end, complains to the ref, then commits a flagrant foul on the other side.

Awesome.
Go Suns!
