For once and for all, Q.Ross blows!!!! Yes he had a great game against Denver, in Section 113 we call that squirrel time, as eventually every squirrel finds a nut. He just cannot shoot and is inept offensively...and if he is in there for his defense I have two questions. 1) Where did he slow down the Suns tonight? 2) If he is a stopper like Dunleavy would like us to believe, then why is it that he didn't receive one vote for the all-defensive team? Wouldn't somebody have thought, "yeah this guy is a lock-down defender? He sucks, killed us tonight with his continual missing of open jumpers.

It's not that q-ross blows for his role... what really blows is that q ross takes over 14 shots!!!! His role is defense and they played him like he was the primary offense... it was ugly!

The better question is why does Dunleavy not adjust during the game with regard to Ross? Ross is definitely an offensive liability in that other teams essentially ignore him on the offensive end. As a result, he is going to have a ton of open shots because the other team wants him to shoot. That little jumper is there all day long. Only problem is that he is not a good shooter and he can't drive or finish either.

Why wasn't Thornton getting Q Ross's minutes? That is the question.

What happen with Cassell, he was our leading scorer!! I don't know if its a personal thing with Cassell but you have to have him in our line up.

I was hoping that they would of kept feeding the ball to Kaman, but with more time on the clock. Several times they fed him the ball with 10 seconds left on the clock, so the shots were hurried shots.

We need to get Corey back in the line up. Obviously I was upset that we lost, but let's keep in mind that it was the Suns plus we are not at full strenght. I was disgusted with the effort the team should against the Bulls at our house! We need to keep supporting our team!!!!

Mobley & TThomas combined took only 14 shot! That's unbelievable. They are Clippers 2 leading shot makers alongwith Kaman.

Nice to see Patterson picking-up his shooting touch. That'll help a great deal. QRoss need to get little more aggressive & display some scorer's mindset.

Phoenix is #1 team right now. Playing hard against them during regular season is not necessary.

Suns upped the ante after the half, but for an undermanned team the first half had some positives. Must win game today.

We're seeing a very heady offensive player who knows how to create shots for himself in the halfcourt. Despite finishing with a 3-13 line from the field, Thornton had his best night at a pro.
