Suns News: Week of 3/24-3/30

[TOO]

You guys and gals could have told me the Suns party was moved to this site! Jeesh!

We all migrated to realgm.com for a bit, then Mori posted the link there. If i didnt go to realgm, i would never have known either. What did happen to phxsuns.net anyways?

Black hole.

It's really cool how well these guys are getting along:

"It's unbelievable. Goran is a terrific competitor," Bledsoe said. "Off the court, he's a good friend. We encourage each other and play off one another."

[Superbone]

BTW, Dragic will be featured on Inside Stuff this weekend on NBATV. 9 am PT/AZ, I believe.

Bone, where did you get that quote from? Would love to read the rest of the article.

Shoot, I can't find it now. It was either on AZCentral.com or NBA.com. It might have been in the preview article for the Wizards game on NBA.com.

Coro on beating the Wiz last night: CLICK

As great as John Wall's 29 points and six assists were at times, especially during the Wizards' rally, the Suns' backcourt was twice as nice. Dragic finished with 25 points, seven rebounds and six assists. Bledsoe tallied 23 points, seven assists, six rebounds and three steals. The Suns are 19-7 when they start together this season, including a 7-1 mark since Bledsoe returned to the starting lineup on March 14.

Also maybe Bledsoe is rounding into form...

@TheMattPetersen: Last four games for Eric Bledsoe: 21.8ppg, 5.5rpg, 5.2apg, 2.0spg, 46.8FG%, 47.1 3FG% Individual plus-minus: +14.0

One thing about the Wiz thing last night is it gave the Hawks their 4th loss in the last 5 games. We really don't want them to fall out of the playoff race. They are currently 6th and the Knicks are 6 1/2 games back in the 9th spot.

Interesting leaving off the 4.5 turnovers per game.

[INFORMER]

"We're winning," Bledsoe said. "That's all that matters. I don't see turnovers. I see a W on the board. Turnovers don't dictate how we play. You just got to wipe it off and move on to the next play."

-Eric Bledsoe, after committing seven turnovers.

Dragic turns it over a fair amount too, I wish they both cleaned that up.

[AmareIsGod]

Considering we've won 6 out of 7 with Bledsoe starting, it's absurd to be as overly critical as you're seeming to be Informer. I don't recall you being overly enthusiastic of him after we made the trade either. I could be wrong.

I'm not seriously criticizing him.

As long as he keeps putting up those other numbers — especially the plus-minus — I think we can forgive the turnovers.

Yes, this is really Cap, the chronic complainer. It's not somebody else using my name. But right now, this team just doesn't make me want to complain.

[AmareIsGod]

Seriously!

The trade was a no-brainer; I had no issues with it. But you are correct, I was not overly enthusiastic. But to be honest, the last time I was overly enthusiastic about the something relating to the Suns was win we traded for Antonio McDyess. So I wouldn't read anything into me not being overly enthusiastic about Bledsoe.

[TOO]

That McDyess trade still stings..

[Superbone]

That McDyess trade still stings..

The trade doesn't. The defection does though.

Same difference.

We have the 2nd best 5-man lineup in the league according to point differential: CLICK
