Did they ever.

But not late.

Looked a lot worse in real time. I didn't even think it was flagrant. Going for the ball but knocked Dragic off balance in the air. Dragic sold the fall well.

Free throw misses were awful tonight. That alone gave us no chance to get back in the game.

Whiteside pulling off the old time wrestling move. That play was a joke. Whiteside was hanging on the rim and decided to come off the rim and karate chop Len about the neck. Of course Len took exception but all he did was push Whiteside to the side.

Made me sick in the 2nd quarter when the Heat are over the limit with 7 minutes to go and the Suns just keep shooting jump shots. Particularly pissed at Bledsoe for not taking it to the hoop. Shameful.

Another thing is that our starting back court's best attribute is speed. Not shooting, not playmaking, not defense, but speed. That doesnt win very many basketball games.

We traded away our best PG after Dragic. I have no doubt the offense would be better with Ennis running it.

good thing goran was going for the layup instead of a dunk. he would have been hurt if he did that. and the way dragic uses his body and right arm to shield big guys away, keef should know that was an unblockable shot.

he looked like he went for the ball, but he pushed dragic's body in midair.

I'm happy for Goran. He is no where near selfish and he deserves the success he is getting. Good for him.

I saw him in a Heat game a couple of weeks ago. I like what I've seen. He could turn into a solid player.

He looked pretty damn solid last night, torching our backcourt.

I rarely remember my dreams, but I remember one image from a dream I had last night abut the game. In my dream, Tyler Johnson jumped so high that his feet were above the rim, and threw the ball down through the hoop for two.

I just felt like sharing that.

Yes, he was utilized incorrectly and if he wants to be in a better situation, I don't blame him.

"Likability" is a word that keeps getting thrown around.

Even during the Beasley year disaster there were players such as Dragic, Dudley, Frye and even Scola that were easy to cheer for.

Now Im not even sure I want the Suns to win and it starts with the Morrii.

I am a proponent of a new starting PG for us, but what has Bledsoe done to make you not root for him? Or Len? Or TJ? Or Archie?

I am reacting a bit here. Its just that the Morrii seem to be the face of the team at the moment and the are obnoxious. I like Len, TJ, and Archie too. Its just the latter two hardly play. I am willing to like Knight, I just want to see something from him.

I am over Green. While he is an unconscious gunner, he at least acts with a level of humility off the court that is admirable. I just see him as gone this summer.

I seem to be in the same boat. Wake me when the draft comes around.

A few thoughts on last night's game:

- Brandon Knight shouldn't have played (he was questionable with a hip injury), yet he played 40 minutes. I didn't check the box score until after the game, but was shocked that he only had five turnovers. It seemed like all five were awful, telegraphed passes right to Heat players. He wasn't the only offender. This has been a disturbing trend recently.

- It was nice to see TJ get crunch time minutes, but he was kind of invisible in that setting, with those teammates.

- Why did Earl Barron come in the game before Wright? Why didn't Wright play in the second half? It's not like our small ball was destroying the heat. Why do we keep playing Earl Barron?

- I was really enjoying the Len-Whiteside matchup until the fight. Shame. Len was on his way to perhaps his best game. I was also hoping Len would suplex Whiteside, which he was clearly trying to do, but he got taken down before he could.
