Valley suns played yesterday:
Brea with a meh 11 points.
Non Huntley in this one.
For some reason they started an all guard lineup with Brea as starting centre?!
Not sure how this was part of his development plan.
Tallest guy on the roster without Huntley is 6’9
G league not great at posting injury reports so not sure what’s up with Huntley.

Suns now only 2.5 games out of the third seed.
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.

We are quietly 2 games behind 3rd place. I think we are every bit as good as Houston, Los Angeles, or Minnesota.
Go Suns!

Houston still worries me, though without Adams their size isn’t as intimidating…I agree on Minny and LAL. I think we’d beat both in a playoff series.

Houston doesn't worry me at all. Their coach sucks, they have no leadership and their offense is garbage. Zero depth. Why do they worry you?

We haven’t beaten them yet this year…and their defense gave us more problems than OKC…they are huge and we really struggled to get any kind of good look against them down the stretch.

Idk some of the Houston games felt like we were definitely set up to fail. Missing multiple people, having brutal back to backs.


I would like to see how we look healthy against them. I definitely want the smoke too.

Those games came with a lot of injuries. Booker was out one, Green, Allen and Williams were out another, etc.

Let's see how we look next month against them. I've been watching their games lately. They are very beatable.

I would happily face Houston in a 1st round playoff series. I think I'd rather face them than Wemby/SAS or OKC or DEN.

We got blown out both games we weren’t healthy against them. The one game we were healthy(and they weren’t) it was close(this is the KD game winner). This is the game I remember just watching our team struggle to get any good looks against their defense down the stretch.

Houston is now without Adams though and I think he was a big part of what they do, so we’ll see what happens in our final game against them.

Collin is a good 3-point shooter. But the fact that he's ahead of those other guys just says more about the direction the league has gone nowadays. Raja Bell or QRich in today's league would be chucking up a ton of shots.

I really wish I could watch Steve Nash play in today's NBA. I think he would have gone absolutely nuts.

Was there even any proof he was high? Doesn't sound like they found any evidence. My guess is this will be thrown out.

Didn’t the original story say he was arrested and not even charged? It’s cops like this that give them a bad name.

Now, if he was driving badly, that's one thing. Charge him for that. Don't make assumptions.

There's always been that. When I was young and dumb, and a nervous teenager, an Arizona cop made me pull out my contact lens from my eyeball to prove that I had corrective lenses since my driver's license showed that I needed it.

If he stays on his average, he'll be in second place within a couple of games and will pull past QRich easily before the season is done.
