Re: Around the NBA: Week 5 (11/17 - 11/23)
Kuminga seems like one of those guys who needs to score a bunch on a losing team to mature. He needs to lose a lot to realize he needs to play within a system.

Winnable. Sup said it in another thread, and I agree. There are no scheduled losses with this team.

Re: Game Day: Spurs (11-4) @ Suns (10-6), Sun 11/23/25
Lots chatter about Williams before the game, and I do get both arguments. As it turned out, he was the x-factor last night with 10/5/1 in the pivotal 3rd quarter. He was the mismatch that the Spurs couldn't adjust to. Now, if we lose by 2 tonight, we can go back to arguing about his rest days ...

Re: Game Day: Spurs (11-4) @ Suns (10-6), Sun 11/23/25
Oso was sneaky good in this one. He’s been very solid lately. Richards on the other hand… I wouldn’t mind seeing a few minutes of Williams & Oso together. Let's hope Maluach is ready by the New Year, to at least give us 10 to 15 minutes a night. This will be interesting to monitor. I wonder if Ott a ...

Oso was sneaky good in this one. He’s been very solid lately. Richards on the other hand… I wouldn’t mind seeing a few minutes of Williams & Oso together. I've been thinking the same thing about Oso. He's really been contributing lately. Earlier in the season, everybody wanted his minutes going to R ...

Re: Game Day: Suns (8-6) @ Blazers (6-7), Tues 11/18/25
I didn't get to watch this one; but looking at the box score has been a hoot. One play that stood out from the highlights was Flemings full court outlet pass to Brooks to Goodwin for the layup. Fleming had grabbed that rebound in a bit of a crowd with 3 or 4 other players around him, but he didn't ...

Re: Video Games
I just finished Dispatch tis weekend, and it is GREAT. Very fun and very funny - the writing is 12/10. For those who haven't played the genera, its a very story heavy game. I'd say it's more like watching a choose-your-own-adventure movie in which you play simple arcade games during action scenes.

Re: Game Day: Hawks (8-5) @ Suns (8-5), Sun 11/16/25
Yep. Eddie Johnson said when Book came in with 10 minutes to play in the 4th that he was in to finish the Hawks off. Quite the opposite. He had a couple sloppy turnovers and totally changed the momentum in the wrong direction. What is it with him and barely getting it over the half court in time ...

Re: Game Day: Hawks (8-5) @ Suns (8-5), Sun 11/16/25
Rough game and it feels like a let-down after the win streak, but I won't read too much into it. Their starters were better than ours all night. I thought the Hawks did a great job of letting Brooks shoot, which took the rest of the team out of rhythm. Obvs I'm not mad a Brooks for making his shots ...

Re: Suns News: Week 4 (11/10 - 11/16)
Sorry for the typo - it was 28th in pace in the previous 5 games. It's not a perfect stat but we aren't getting out and running either and are 25th in fastbreak points. But we are playing quick in the halfcourt, moving the ball and making the defense move side to side, help and then recover back ...

Re: Around the NBA: Week 4 (11/10 - 11/16)
For rehab purposes…teams do that from time to time to get them game experience I bet he only practices with them. And yeah, I know, but not usually superstars. True…I wouldn’t be surprised if all he does is practice This has nothing to do with hoops, but I got to see Ricky Henderson play in a AAA ga ...

So just looking at some stats right now: We're are: 15th in Net Rating 14th in Defensive Rating 7th in Ast% but 24th in A/TO ratio 11th in Rebounding % and 5th in OReb % 12th in EFG% and 14th in TS% Just 24th in Pace 26th in TO% (bad) Most of those numbers jump significantly if we keep it to just ...

Re: The Phoenix Suns and the escape from basketball purgatory
On offense, Sabonis can play 3-5. On defense, he's a liability. Great rebounder, though. I think Williams is at his best being a help-defender, and we definitely don't want Sabonis to be an on-ball defender. I love Sabonis' game, but it's just so hard to hide bad defenders in this era.

Re: The Phoenix Suns and the escape from basketball purgatory
I think it’s all about player development and striking at the right time. You gotta hope Williams/Green/Dunn/Maluach/Fleming/Brea develop above their expectations…either so we can use them or trade them. Then I think you gotta keep competing…think the bubble suns run leading to CP3 wanting to come. ...

Re: Around the NBA: Week 4 (11/10 - 11/16)
I think this is the worst ever. Most of the other trades that turned out to be really bad, it was because of the results of a draft pick, or something else that was not entirely foreseeable when the trade was made (like, say, SGA becoming an MVP-level player, to take a recent example). This was not ...

Man, this team is everything we could have hoped for. What a game. Yeah, the Pels are struggling with so many key guys out, but that's not the point. It was great to see the Suns didn't play down to the Pels level, and didn't let them back in the game. At the beginning of the season, I said my ...
