It's only been a couple mins but one team sure looks like it really got the Tanking thing mastered so this prediction looking quite possible smh
It is my Suns curse. Whenever I say we will win big we usually lose fairly bad. I didn't mean we would win by 25. Lol.
Go Suns!

Triano trying to get 4 on each of the bigs in the first half. So he is forced to play Chriss to end the game. Triano has our back.

Warren better come back next season with a 3 point shot or he is going to find himself coming off the bench. :)

edit: Ouch when did Jackson's three point avg take a dive? Thought he was shooting the three much better than he is.

I have been so pleased with Josh Jackson’s 2018 so far. He needs to stop barking at the refs and continue to improve his game but he is going to be good.

It’s time to trade Warren while his value is high. Again, I would try and package warren and some picks with Chriss and try and get somebody great in return.

I'm really hoping we move him this summer. Don't hate him, just want to move him before we have a team crisis about his role.

You OK with moving him for a conditional second rounder? Because I'm not sure we could get much more.

He was talking about TJ Warren not Chriss. :)

Speaking of Chriss, how about 5 fouls, 2 TO, and 0-3 shooting ins 6 minutes. -8 Tank Commander.

The good: Booker is still awesome! And I can't believe how quickly Jackson has come along all the sudden. Dude is special. Build around those 2 fo sho!

The bad: Chriss. Really dude? 5 fouls barely into the 3rd quarter? The Grizzlies announcers are commenting on how disengaged he looks. I'm over this dude. I'm not watching 4 years of his bullshit just to be disappointed. We can't trade him fast enough. Too much drama from someone who hasn't done jack in this league. Dudley and Chandler haven't been enough veteran presence for him I guess.

Bender, 4 fouls in the first half from a guy who is supposed to have a high bball IQ. Marc Gasol is good but he's no Anthony Davis. He can be subdued. Else just don't foul him. I'm about at the end of the rope with him too. I don't care that they are still young. They haven't showed me anythign to warrant where we selected them. If it's me I'm trying to package them for anything halfway decent. They are going to slow this rebuild down the more time we invest.

Chriss has done a great job helping us to draft his replacement

The best thing for him right now is to send him to the G-League. All this other coddling and timeout bullshit hasn't worked. Suns need to start having a backbone with players like this.

Been plenty of moments to criticize Bender this season mainly on offense but I wouldn't use struggling on D against Marc as one. He is just way too slight to contain Gasol and couple of the fouls were soft so can't agree that reflects on his bball IQ
