Whiteside's gonna get the max from the Lakers this summer.

We are so undisciplined on defense. They over rotate and then just kinda clump up in the lane standing around watching the ball. Instead of finding a guy to guard. So many wide open shots.

Fucking eh Len. You are basically under the basket and you run a billion moves. Either hook shot that or fucking dunk it.

Almost bailed them out at the last second because Chandler can't be bothered to leave the lane.

Len's play is inconsistent, but he's bested Whiteside so far (in the little time they've matched up). And there's no denying that he's our best offensive threat at the moment (see as how our top 3 are out). Amare got the best of him n the 1st... don't know what to make of that.

We could really use TJ Warren or Eric Bledsoe out there. Tucker's D isn't that important when our offense is this impotent. Wade's tearing us up in the first half.

Watching this game has made me more enthusiastic about having signed Tyson Chandler. It's not showing up on the scoreboard, but it sure is nice having a reliable high-caliber veteran center on the team. When's the last time we've had that? I'm gonna go with Shaq. He's worth the money... to this team at least. Maybe not in general. But for this squad, frankly - thank god he's here. Look at what that team would be out there without him - Teletovic, Tucker, Price and the three baby shooting guards. I don't even.

I think I'd try to keep Tyson for next season. Wouldn't trade him this summer. I'd look to trade some baby shooting guards - certainly there are teams who would use them.

Struggling to figure out what Ronnie Price does well out there.

I was having the opposite thoughts. He looks washed out there. He can't get any lift and keeps missing bunnies. Can you imagine what he'll look like in year 3 of that contract?

How does Len let Dragic get that shot. I feel like Len was a much better shot blocker his 2nd year.

Wow what a shitty reaction from the bench. Booker is going off and the Heat call a timeout. No one on the bench even looks excited. Just a couple normal hand slaps and that is it.

Depressing.

Seriously. Thank god we have him???!!!! why? Because without him the Suns may be the worst team in the league instead of the third or fourth worst?

No, they're the worst team in the league right now. The Lakers are their only competition for that.
