The Calm Before the Storm
The Suns got the win last night despite rolling over and playing dead in the 3rd quarter. It's a good thing Baron Davis had too much cake and ice cream last night, otherwise our squad could have been in serious trouble.
Before turning the game on last night, I told myself I wouldn't get upset or too worked up no matter how they played. Much like my goal of becoming a Senator, this was a pipe dream.
When Steven Jackson drilled his second three without so much as a hand in his face, my television surely had visions of my foot crashing through it. Fortunately, the serenity now trick worked (insanity later, I know,) and the Suns did as well.
The defensive effort was turned back on in the fourth quarter and Coach D realized he had the two biggest guys on the court. Sayanora, Nellie.
What worries me about last night's game isn't the Suns defensive lapses, Grant Hill's tender groin, or the fact that Nash doesn't look right at the moment. It's that I was going nuts over what pretty much amounts to be a meaningless regular season game.
With the meltdown against the Mavs and the beatdown at the hands of the Rockets, the Suns were almost assured of NOT gaining home-court for the first round. And since there isn't a good matchup for anyone in the playoffs, a loss last night wouldn't have been the end of the world.
Yet there I was, fuming nonetheless.
If it's like this for an end of the regular season game that doesn't matter much, I should probably just apologize in advance to my wife for future ornery behavior and the broken remote and cordless phone that will be left in my wake.
I wonder if it's too late to get a prescription for Diovan.
