Lkr Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 I don't care how many OTs there were, way too many points were given up tonight by LA. What an awful possession by Phoenix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Way too much time taken by the Suns. Lakers played good defense jumping all of the screens and passing lanes, but after the first 4 or 5 seconds was used up, Gortat needed to just attack Gasol. Good defense by the Lakers in the 3rd overtime, but Phoenix was just completely out of sorts offensively. Some very poor execution down the stretch by the Suns. Artest was the difference maker in that 3rd overtime. That steal and dunk was huge, and that off balance, one legged fade he hit to put the Lakers up by 5 was the biggest shot of the game (although Kobe's floater to put the Lakers up by 4 was huge, Artest's shot was bigger). Regardless, it looked like a great game. I'm kind of pissed that I turned it off thinking it was over when the Suns were down by around 20 in the 3rd. Looks like I missed out on what was an awesome 27 minutes of basketball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Tzu Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Almost had it... I'm glad we were able to bring the Lakers to a triple over time. It was clear that the players were getting tired in the third over time. But wow, props to Hill with that amazing defense on Kobe. And also Frye for hitting all those clutch threes. I'm not too happy with Carter's shooting though, he missed at least two crucial threes that could have either got us a tie or win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Swish* Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 That was a great game just by the highlights of it.. unfortunately I didn't have the chance to watch a minute of it last night! Thriller in LA! WOW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) Ball-dominant, poor defender... As far as being ball dominant, I agree. There is no such thing as a pg in our offense, and a good part of the time guys are playing without the ball so I'm not sure if Nash would be able to adjust to such a role. As far as being a poor defender, Fish is just as bad. What Nash could really help us do is knock down open jumpshots. There would be no stopping our offense.
