Maybe Nodack saw an old Jazz v Suns box score? Cause Eric was lousy tonight. 8 points with a lot of early in the clock jumpers.
Go Suns!

I think I did. I Googled Suns Jazz box score and it showed Bledsoe as the leading scorer. I guess it must have been from last year.

Sorry about that. That's why I hate not being able to see the game. I have to look it up online and that even if accurate sucks compared to seeing it.

I think we are really missing Reed and Williams. Both of those guys are heady 2 way role players who will make the whole team look better.

Even so, can you imagine this roster with 2 more young guys who need minutes? We are all full of young guys who need to play. Let's make some decisions about who to keep and who to move.

Not much DJJ again, no Mike James this game, still no Jok, Peters, and Bennett. It looks like Watson has his top 10 decided, and is just using preseason to figure out his substitution patterns.

We have young stud PFs? Did I miss something here? Are you referring to the 2 goobers we picked last year that had no business going that high?

Exum has had a forgettable NBA career so far , that's unfortunate man. Hopefully no bad news for TJ , btw I just was double checking Twitter for any updates and seeing quite a few Jazz fans saying TJ made a reckless, dumb foul.....

I don't even remember the play Exum got injured on. Was it that bad?

TJ and another Sun (can't remember who, but I am thinking it was Chriss) went for a block at the rim. TJ and Exum fell to the floor. You can read in this thread the first time we were worried about TJ. It was this fall. Exum ran off the court holding his shoulder after writhing on the floor and you could tell it was separated. But it also tore ligaments, apparently. Wasn't dirty at all from my perspective. More likely had Exum jumped to shoot instead of fake hat nothing would have come of it. Just one of those things.

TJ's second fall happened when closing out on a three. The court in SLC is raised (like most now, I think) and it appeared that he landed near the edge and dove/rolled into the first couple of rows near the edge. Hard to see what he hit from my vantage, but he needed immediate attention and you could tell he split his head open. Might have hit a chair or a more permanent obstacle. He appeared woozy heading off with the help of a couple of guys.

I really wanted Hernangomez (Juancho). Still think he's going to be really good. I also wanted Bender though and while some of his skill set is still so tantalizing he just doesn't have the it so far. Looks like early Dragic where he's so timid and has zero confidence. Hopefully the light comes on for him like it did Goran.
Go Suns!

I wanted Murray or Hield. Not saying they should've gone there, but I'd feel a little more confident about the Suns direction if we had either of them on the roster over the 2 goobers. I was also big on Sabonis, but he's been pretty meh too, so what do I know? :D

No, nothing to sign up for. The game is still being uploaded. When it's done you will see 3 rows of 4 red boxes with Part 1, 2, 3 and 4 on it. Those will be the replay streams.

I was there as well. If I am not mistaken, I was the only one who voted for Murray as best player available or something like that. Also wondered about Hield's ability to guard PGs.

Thanks! Glad I asked. These sites have all kinds of tricks to get you to click on links and sign up for things. So, even though it looks like nothing is happening, it really is uploading? How long does it normally take?

I've not seen it take this long, but... remember it didn't have an official stream. Only the crappy jumbotron one.

Exum took a shot and then went in for the rebound and sort of undercut T.J. when T.J. was going up for the rebound. Warren and Exum then went down in a heap.. Exum ran straight to the locker room with a shoulder separation and Warren had a thigh injury that he returned from later in the period.

TJ flew in, but it also looked liked Exum leaned in a little to create the contact in order to draw the foul. In the majority of instances with this type of collision, its the player that is up in the air that gets the worst of it. Its too bad. Hate to see that type of injury, especially in preseason.
