Glad refs finally got tired of the Dallas players kvetching, and handed out some technicals.

Dallas (arena) is the new Utah, in terms of the home team getting every call.
Just ridiculous.

It’s gonna be pretty funny if Richards is our starting center in the playoffs and “Better Fit Nurk” gets benched. It would be funny. Especially after Nurk tossed Richards around like a ragdoll when the Suns played Charlotte. Nurk had 24 and 15 against Richards. So, no to the trade, and no to the mi...

Zion had three (3) rebounds in 33 minutes.
He's averaging less than 6 pg this season.
How can somebody who is 6-6 and 280 not get around 10 boards a game?

Some compare Zion to Barkley, but Charles averaged almost 12 boards a game for his career.
Zion rebounds like a perimeter player...

Very satisfying win.

While Zion can score easily, he obviously likes to save energy on defense.

Kings bench: 17.

Suns bench: 2.

Bates-Diop had a +/- of -24 last night in 14 minutes.

Yes, +/- isn't an end-all/be-all stat, but, hell, -24 ?!

Okogie with four fouls in eight minutes.

Oof ...

Here are some of the latest trade rumors involving the Suns (compiled by the Arizona Republic) Bleacher Report: Goga Bitadze, Monte Morris, T.J. McConnell best trade targets for Suns Zach Buckley writes: "Phoenix can merely hope for marginal upgrades, and those could be focused at the point gua...

Nurk abusing Richards in the paint. Nurk: 18 pts, 14 rebounds, 2 blocks. Richards: 4pts,1 board.

"also Azubuike with the highest +/-…that flukey? "

No, he played well ... solid in the paint, like he owned it."

Suns fairly fluid on offense throughout. Jalen Green's bombing kept the Rockets in the game.
Suns outboarded Rockets, 44-33.

Azubuike earned more playing time with this effort ... Eubanks has looked a bit lost the past few games.

What the hell is up with Bates-Diop? A DNP?

As far as the game goes, I figured the Kings would win after the Suns cratered during the recent home stand.

If the Suns' season would become a game show, it would be "Beal or No Beal"

Tyus Jones has 20 pts on 8-10 shooting (4-4 from deep) 7 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks.

Any chance Suns can ship Broken Beal back to Wiz for TJ ... ?

2-20 from the arc. That's 10%, boys and girls...

I think Mark West could have shot better ...

At least the Stock Market is having a good fourth quarter... This a loose assemblage of random players, instead of a cohesive team. Brunson is good, but 17-23 from the field? Who was guarding him -- Stevie Wonder? Second unit plays like a bunch of guys wandering onto an outdoor court for a pickup ga...

"Oddly, his body looks about 6-7 but his head looks 6-10 so he's looks bigger than he is."

Joe Kleine 2.0?

Great thread. December 15 is when the majority of the Phoenix Suns roster becomes available to trade. A free agent who signed a standard NBA player contract – or a player who signs, or is converted to, a standard NBA player contract while under a Two-Way Contract – can’t be traded for three months f...

It's still early, but Vogel needs to start paring his 13-man rotation. Vogel should decide on Okogie or Little. They both serve similar roles. As much as some like JO, his erratic shooting, including free throws, is hindering the team. Little has better FT and 3-point averages. Maybe deal Okogie for...

That’s a real dick move by Foster. It’s supposed to be CP3’s homecoming of sorts. You don’t throw him out of the game.

Sort of reminded me of "Forget Paris" when Billy Krystal (playing an NBA ref) ejects half the players on the court, including Kareem during his farewell tour ...
