Re: GT #70: Phoenix Suns (47-22) @ Detroit Pistons (49-19) - 3/24
Suns can take this game but they can't afford many turnovers or to get bigs in foul trouble.

Less turnovers, and more quality shots will be needed to stay in with Detroit. We have to watch for Rasheed, he is the X-factor. Everyone else can be slowed down to an extent, but Rasheed will be a tough guard for Amare. Lets hope he has an off game.

Pistons lost to the Wizards tonight. They might be a little motivated.

I dont think we will have raja bell back for this game, that will cause a mismatch with LB guarding Hamilton(he is 6'7 and will abuse LB)

Or they might be a little tired. Let's hope it's the latter.
I think this will be an exciting game decided by 4th quarter execution. I like how we've played in the 4th lately so I like our chances.
By the way, I'd be interested to see Nash, Grant, Diaw, Amare & Shaq start. I think that would be a good matchup for Detroit's starting 5. It would also give us more fire power off the bench. Of course, that means Skinner would have to play and we don't want to mess up our 7-man rotation, right?  What do you guys think?

I want the Suns to embarrass them on their home floor the way they got embarrassed in their's awhile back. Send a message to the rest of the league. RAWR!!

Grant Hill will probably be the most important player for us, along with Barbosa in this game.
I don't see Shaq doing much on the offensive end this game and getting in foul trouble.

Re: GT #70: Phoenix Suns (47-22) @ Detroit Pistons (49-20) - 3/24
This game for me highlights the absolute ineptitude of the coaching staff. And it's only the first quarter.
We start out in a zone against an outside shooting team. Alright, kind of odd - but whatever. Let's go with it. Sheed nails an open three. Still in the zone. Sheed nails another open three. Still in the zone. Sheed nails his third open three. WHY are we still in a zone? He hits his FOURTH OPEN THREE and we finally drop the zone. That's NOT professional grade coaching, that's not even middle school coaching. When a guy is shooting like that you put someone in his grill and force someone else to prove they can score.
But amazingly we're only down 1 after the first Q. Pretty good start.

Lol, I forgot the game was at 7:30... I'm so used to seeing their games start at 10:00, haha. Anyways, Detroit's up 51-50 at the half. Raja has 3 fouls already >_> Oh, and it seems Hamilton isn't playing tonight for w/e reason.
