GM6: Phoenix (3) @ Portland (2)

The Suns need to let Roy get his. He's still got a bad knee, no matter the surgery, and letting Roy shoot jumpers gives you a bigger chance of winning the game, despite it being in Portland.

 

If he's not in, let Miller go off and stop everyone else. Dre is on tired knees, so you won't be seeing a significant performance out of him, at least not in the 30's or 40's, as long as you stay in front of him.

 

Phoenix also has to rebound. When they do, they are tough to beat, especially when they grab boards and start the break.

 

Portland needs a lot out of Batum this game, and Bayless has to attack when Nash is defending him. Aldridge won't be able to do it all, and Roy's injury will keep him under 30 points and a reckless performance.

 

Also, the Blazers have to keep an eye out for Frye and Dudley. Phoenix will be content with 30 threes, so it's up to Portland to close out and not allow them to get hot.

We need Camby to stay in the game and not pick up dumb fouls. That's what happened in game 5 when we were up 19-4 (or something like that). As soon as Camby got two fouls and had to sit, it was all down hill from there. He anchors our defense, effects shots when someone comes into the paint, cuts down on missed defensive rebounds, tips the ball out to another Blazer on the offensive end when missed. He's our glue guy and we need him to stay in the game. If the Suns want to win, they need to get Camby out of the game, otherwise, see you guys back in Phoenix for a HUGE game 7.
