"Fools gold". It's what Shaq warned fans about after we routed the Kings but it seems our ineffective coaching, lack of effort, and inane desire to turn the ball over has got the best of us. Wednesday's 109-92 capitulation to the Cleveland Cavaliers is a sight oh too familiar to the followers of the Phoenix franchise. Granted the Suns were missing their two-time MVP Steve Nash the result is something that not even Zeus(Michael Jordan?) himself could overcome. Although the 28-23 Suns are only a half game behind the Jazz for the 8th spot in the West the problems that have been surfacing may be here to stay.
Suprisingly it wasn't King James that eviscerated us, but rather his under appreciated sidekick in scoring, Mo Williams. Mo lit us up for 44 points shooting 69% from the field and 7 for 9 from 3 point land proving to the league he deserves that All-Star stamp.
Terry Porter is everything thats wrong with the Suns. His inability to incorporate his two big men (Shaq and Amare) into the game compounded by the fact the Suns turned over the ball 25 times in the game only laments his inability to coach. I for one am sick of seeing the Suns wave the white flag after the 3rd quarter. The talent is definitely there but the execution of a plan, if there is any, makes my prostate groan. Terry Porter's only skills are that he bitches about calls, yells "Come On Guys!" while down 15+ points, and shines his bald head void of any intelligence. His lack of leadership is a direct result of his lack of respect from his players. The team does not want to play for this loser but the organization(Loser #1 Sarver and Loser #2 Kerr ) are too proud to admit to their mistakes. Instead of being the underdog rooted for by NBA fans we have become the joke of the league.
With all the trade talk and uncertainty surrounding Phoenix don't expect the Suns to get better any time this decade. All I have to say is that the idiots that got us into this situation are the same idiots we are going to have to weather the storm with. Trading away our talent is not gonna get us better anytime soon. So strap on your ponchos Phoenix, not because of the weather, but because the shits only beginning to hit the fan. In other news Lebron James is dedicating a park in Phoenix this All-Star weekend.
