I hate it when I'm right. Especially when the Suns do their best to make it so.
The effort tonight was yet again pathetic. We'll hear tomorrow from Coro and Jerry Brown that more time is needed and finishing up a back to back in Denver is never an easy task but I've had it with that nonsense.
Shrinks tell us body language is a great communicator and they aren't lying. Amare allowed Kenyon Martin to punk him, Nash let Anthony Carter (Anthony Carter!) frustrate him and Raja had no choice but to resort to head games with Carmelo.
More importantly, as soon as JR Smith started throwing in the kitchen sink and the Nuggets made their run, the Suns resigned themselves to another loss and looked forward to a night in their own beds.
A road loss on the back end of back to back is understandable but the lack of heart shown from this team is unacceptable. Let's hope Coach D doesn't pay just lip service and takes his team to account for their consistent lackluster performance.

Great teams win no matter the circumstances. I think all the concentration on running the last three years has left them soft whenever they find the littlest of difficulty.
They need to hire a defensive coach immediately. Humphry's and Gentry provide no help at all, as does big brother.
I'm giving this team two more games before I really start to hit the panic button. If they can't show up at home against Utah and San Antonio. They might as well just not play the rest of the year.
This team is extremely soft. Any kind of contact or physicality or chippyness throws them off.
Turnovers are just killing them. Killing them.
chippyness....the art of being chippy?
i think we passed bonertown and are staying in brown town. it stinks here
Chippy - Every anouncers new favorite word when play gets physical.
I was merely expanding on an already ridiculous use of a word. Besides Van Gundy there isn't an anouncer I like.
Shaq was brought here for the playoffs. That is what this team is getting ready for. We will make the playoffs and make a strong push to the finals. Or I have just been at the kool-aid jug all day. Either way its going to be an interesting rest of the season
chippy as def. in the urban dictionary = a female prostitute, especially a young and inexpensive one
