I love the scrappyness of our 2nd unit. It really has potential.

The Clippers got so much more unlikable this off-season. They added pereniall SF4L sh!tlist players Lance Stephenson, Josh Smith, and Paul Pierce. I already hated them...

3 really bad possessions in a row on both sides of the floor. 3 of them by Warren.
Go Suns!

Weems has been less than impressive so far this year. I know it's still early but not shooting well, turning the ball over a lot, and this "veteran" defense we're suppose to see is nowhere to be found.

Falling apart out there on both ends. We need to play better defense.

Knight is running that pick and roll well.

I haven't seen much good out of him at all. He seems to be okay at getting around his guy but he doesn't seem to finish all that well at the rim.

First game time I've seen this season, on a choppy stream. The Suns started falling apart when the shot selection went horribad, perhaps because of good defense -- hard to tell on this stream. Knight really has to stop taking these ill-advised jumpers, especially when you have Len posting up on a smaller Josh Smith right in front of you. Just because he missed a reasonable shot doesn't mean that he'll miss the next one. Then, the defense went rancid as well.

Funny how encouraged I was about the play of Len and Warren earlier in the game, I guess that these are what you call growing pains.

Blake Griffin is a badass, punk or not.

Morris is 1 for 11. I actually had to double check another box score because I thought that was an error on ESPN.com. Why in the fuck does he keep getting the bulk of the minutes?! Bledsoe in foul trouble early in the 2nd and we still can't see a single minute for the rookie. I've about had it with Hornacek. The guy clearly doesn't know how to coach a team. Leuer is hustling, making plays. Yet he gets taken out and Morris gets the bulk of the minutes, giving no effort on defense and chucking up bullshit jump shots, 3's and getting his shit packed at the rim.

He plays some of the best defense on the team. Not that perplexing.

Morris looks like he's just going through the motions. I think he's just waiting to be traded. The problem is that nobody is going to want him the ways he's been performing.

I'm caught up to half time. Suns made a nice run with the second unit but then things came crashing back to earth. Down 9 at half time.
