In other news, the bedside vigil continues to see if Morris will come out of his season-long coma.

He peaked his head out and saw his brother's shadow. Six more weeks of Fall.
Go Suns!

Wow, and how about Tucker down the stretch? He was huge.

I have to admit I was really worried with 4 minutes to go in a tied ballgame with the way we've been finishing games and with Markieff inserted into the lineup.

Big win.

That's what I was thinking as well. Glad to be proven wrong.

His contract is an albatross when he's playing at this level.

Suns pick off more rebounds (50-43) than the Raptors. Also handed out more assists (24-19). While Bledsoe was lousy from the field, he did have 11 assists and three blocks, including a game clinching pulldown a Scola attempt from behind the arc.

I thought the rotation was great, other than Markieff and Tucker starting, and Price getting time over Booker. Was nervous with Tucker and Kieff and coming back in at the end, but it worked out this time.

I'm all in for playing Len, Warren, Booker & Goodwin as much as we can to see what they can do.

Tonight was a nice win, but it's fool's gold.

Sounds the opposite of thinking it was a great rotation. A poor combination of starters. That same poor combination playing in the clutch moments of the game. That to me sounds like poor rotations by the coach. I'll drink whatever optimism juice you're sipping on :)

Lol except for 2/5 of the starting lineup and the first guard off the bench, I loved the rotations too
