Okay, I know Detroit was on the end of a back to back and had lost in overtime, but our Suns had that "something" back. Amare looks strong and the timing is back. Djuric is really starting to come on and Barbossa looks like the wrist is getting better. With Lopez back after Thanksgiving we get another big boost off the bench. I believe we will continue to struggle a bit in back to backs and have some minor problems when the three's don't fall, but the Suns are a very good team and the biggest surprise in the NBA by far.

He said in interviews before the game that it was a trap game. This team is trying to prove something, and they had a practice with their new coach under their belts. So, Gentry knew what this game was. The guys, well, that's a different story I suppose. They say that you live and die by the three. We died. The thing is that it took us a whole quarter to realize to go to the hole. And yes, the officiating made me crazy. But the thing is, the Suns never get calls, but this was the first time we really experienced it this season. Somehow, LeBron can get calls all day long because of who he is, but a two time MVP beast can't get a charge called. We have to play through that. And we will. These games happen. The difference is that this year we're tough enough to move past it and not hold our heads down like every other year. We're alot more confident this year. Championship confident...

We died.

It was a very brutal schedule and the result of it showed in this game. Stay cool guys, till December we would take what is supposed to take. After that it would be extremely difficult but our Suns can handle the situation and keep tempo with the elite teams where our place is. :) I think it`s because of the lack of resting days.

They went into that game with the WRONG attitude. Alvin said before the game that we beat this team by twenty points before they lost their Paul, this will merely be another game to get out of the way or something to that affect. Perhaps he should spend less time picking out fancy suits and more time thinking about pro-active mindsets to take into games. From go this team had more energy and had their minds and most importantly hearts in this game! I turned it off halfway through the 4th because I honestly felt the Hornets deserved to win and didn't need to see it either way. I'm glad we aren't fighting for the "best record" anymore. The recently past seasons with such success including win streaks have been fools gold. Winning is not something to take for granted. Long time fan, first time poster.

Be tougher on rebounding and defense! If the Suns can do that, they could be the best team in the league! C’mon Suns! You all can do better than that! Be tougher on rebounding and defense!

Very poor performance in all aspects against a team we should beat and without their star player on the floor. This is the kind of play that we can't afford with a December shedule that is brutal. Dudley was the only Sun with a pulse. Let me add, the officiating stunk as bad as we did, horrible game, just horrible.
