Suns up 12 at the end of the 3rd. Both teams had a 10 point run in the Q. Knight shot well after being 0-5 in the first half. He now has 12 points and a couple 3's.
Go Suns!

WTF is up with Ronnie Price? He just drained 2 3's and one of them was about 5 feet behind the 3-point line.

Really liking Ronnie Price. Warren looking great. Len getting some nice dunks and protecting the rim. Even PJ is having a good game. Nice to see Chandler boarding it up yet again and #3 getting his shot back the 2nd half.

Nice game to get our shooting touch back.

Archie still makes bad decisions on defense. It's probably why he isn't playing a whole lot. Just left his man as wide open as I've ever seen someone who promptly had 5 minutes to set his feet and drain a 3.

Bleds with 19p/8r/6a/4s/1b. Has at least 2s/1b in each of the last four games.

Suns shot 60% from 3 and over 50% from the field. That'll win you some games.

Good win.

Making shots will make your offense look a lot better. Whoda thunk it?

Looks like Bledsoe staying in the Valley over the summer has been doing him well so far.

Yea...I think he looks a little trimmer then he did last year. Not surprisingly Kieff has come out of the gate loking terrible and he was the only Sun not in the valley early. So much for working out at home..

Great win tonigh. We are pretty awesome at scoring off turnovers. I am officially on the Ronnie Price bandwagon!

Len looked good tonight a long as he didnt have one of our guards throwing at his knees or at 100mph.

I can live with Bledsoe being a sun in the future but I just dont want him running the point. Ever. So that then creates a log jam w Booker.

Knight and Bledsoe sometimes look great together and other times i just hide in the corner and cringe. Id like to see more of Price and Bledsoe please.

Id like to see less Markieff Morris please.

Everytime I see the substitution patterns I think "Oh Hornacek's drunk at the wheel again." Seriously. I know Teletovic sucks but when u pull him after 2 mins and 0 shots what do u expect?

I was furious over Bookers short leash in the first half.

Sonny Weems makes my eyes hurt. That is all.

Comical how no matter what players or coaches you put on the Kings they are still just terrible

He does. My problem is that some night he looks like a top 10 PG, other night like a bottom 10 starting PG. Tonight went well for him. That is great for us.

That is the part where I think he is elite. His defense is great. If there was a designated hitter in the NBA, and he could be our defensive PG, I would be all for that. Or he could just keep having nights where his stat line is close to tonight's (except for the 4 TOs on him, and the 1 or 2 on Len that should have been on him). But his TOs are lower this year than the last few, and his blocks are up a bit. That is great to see.

And I will have to say this: I have yet to see Bledsoe drive the lane, miss the shot, not get the foul, and just lay there. The very few times that has happened, he hops up and sprints back on D. I love that change and hope it keeps up this season.

It was a pretty awful play. He completely blew his assignment on D, then coming out of the time-out, blew the offensive possession (along with Price or Knight, I can't remember).
