I didn't see much of the first half, but I was pleased with Jackson's 4th quarter play.

Yeah, I was suprised at what a good passer he is. He's a solid pro.
He is legit underrated now. He's a good player. Doesn't really defend, but whatever, nobody does. He scores, passes, rebounds, knows how to play etc. I'd rather pay him than ChandLen.
MonLen seems to work better together than ChandLen.
It does, they actually offer a different look, Chandler is just a s*** version of Len. :lol:
Of the three, I’ll take Monroe any day.

Monroe's the kind of big people have knocked for everything he can't do....isn't all that athletic, not an above the rim type, not a great defender, not a great shotlblocker. But like you guys said, he knows how to play. He puts up the numbers in terms of blocks, rebounds and assists and is the kind of player we need in the paint. Maybe he's a guy who works out for us in the short-time and long term if the deal is right.

Bulls are very underwhelming, but the Suns did win without Booker getting 30-plus points.
That's a good sign.

I saw about half the game and portions of the last two.
Monroe does appear to have more court awareness and basketball smarts than some of the Suns recent big men.
And Len does seem to play better in combo with him.
I wouldn't mind "resting" Chandler for a long period of time.

For all the kvetching about Markkanen, the kid has it.
I thought he was a bit overrated at the UofA, but he's really come to the fore as a pro.
He has everything that the Suns thought Bender might have on offense.

just got through watching most of the 2nd half. I don't know what our assist stats were early on but I remember it being quite poor and the stat that last night was our third straight game with 28+ asts is a good sign. Like some mentioned it is clear to see that we moved the ball pretty good last night, really enjoyed some of Monroe and Devin dishes in the paint.
I think EJ was really funny last night btw :lol:

I'm happy with Monroe. He's never been a big time shot blocker, but his low-post game and rebounding have always been good.
