Marc Jackson with the lamest attempt to score in the paint I've ever seen, I haven't even heard half the sounde effects tonight, and he's going soft with his scoring attempts.
I don't know how many times he's had his shot blocked tonight, but it seems like a lot.
104-91 Suns, and for all intents and purposes unless there's a miracle, this game is over. There are certain things that are hard to overcome, the turnovers the amount of points the Suns have and their three point shooting.
I'm not taking moral victories, but it was good to see the Sixers fight back into this one. In a way, it's good I didn't make it to this game, because if I saw this I would be pissed.

this is exactly what got them into such a big hole last year. They start off playing bad basketball, then try to make a comeback, which is almost impossible against the suns because of the match-up problems.

Well Sixers never really got within more than 10. Suns were cruising a bit in the 3rd quarter it looked like.
Amare, Q, JJ and Marion combined for 90 points. Amare 29/10/2/2/1 in 35 minutes.
All I said was the Sixers were keeping up scoring with them, which they were which was part of the problem, keeping up wasn't anywhere near enough after falling behind 13 in the first quarter.
I'm dissapointed with how the team started the game, especially after closing out the game against Boston playing such a high level of basketball. I'll say now, if Willie Green didn't do enough to win a spot in the starting lineup, I don't know what he needs to do.

Amare Stoudemire will be a 3rd team All-NBA performer. I am glad I predicted that.

Well Phoenix is a much better team than Boston. Philly has to take care of the teams they are supposed to beat and they will be fine.
Realistically it would have been quite a big upset if they beat the Suns.
Maybe you will have to improve that to 2nd team though.
I still feel politics will keep him off the 2nd team, but if he keeps playing like this, why the heck not.
