EJ said the Suns are 6-2 when Bender has 8+ FGA. That's not even close to true.

I think he said Ulis feels 6'2" when Bender has 8+ FGA. Could've just misheard him though.

:oops:

Well, whaddaya know, it is true.

We're 2-8 when he has exactly 7 FGA, but 3-1 when he has exactly 6. I guess 7 is the number to avoid. :shrug:

We probably win easily if Booker doesn't shoot 20%.
Go Suns!

Wish we had held out for Brogdon in that trade. He'd fit so nicely next to Book.

Trading Bledsoe and not getting Brogdon back will forever be a stain on McD's tenure here. Inexcusable.

Was the defense on Booker that good? His shooting other than from the free throw line was horrid. Allowing Middleton and Brogdan go off for 30 a piece is embarrassing, and I think both are good players. No wonder the NBA Math guys think Booker is the 9th best SG in the league.

To be fair to Booker, Middleton started at PF. But yeah, Brogdon and Middleton both seem to love the mathup against Book. They come out ready to compete every time.

I know that Book didn't have a good shooting last night. He was taking a lot of off balanced shots and they weren't falling like we expect, and it seemed to me that he he got discouraged as the game went on. His ft shooting was fine, so I'm not sure what was going on. I know he was passing well, with the exception of a couple turnovers late.

Hate to be that guy, but we probably win if he did shoot 20%. He didn't even crack 15% this game. Just an awful, awful shooting performance.

We wouldn't have even been in this game if it weren't for Daniels amazing 3 point shooting.
