Do any of you listen to Espo's Suns, podcast, "The Solar Panel"?

I listened to it even though I don't like Dave King. It was fine. No "inside" information or anything. A lot of conjecture that we won't be re-signing Len or at least should have traded him.
Go Suns!

Adam Maynes of ValleyOfTheSuns thinks we should go after Terrence Jones.

Sample sizes are tiny. The only thing I will take away from that article is that we have played a lot of different lineups.

Exactly. With nearly 3000 minutes played, we are using sample sizes of 30 minutes to make a point? Really?

Can anyone guess who leads our team in PER at 22.2?

Idk, I'm guessing Williams?

Cheater? Haha! That was totally off the top of my head based on his numbers lately.

:) I love Big Sauce's recent play, but but I don't think the sample size is large enough to talk about his PER much yet.

Yeah, before we put him in the Ring of Honor, let's just appreciate the fact that he's more than a stiff at the end of the bench.

I'm a big cheerleader because he's a Mighty Mustang from my alma mater, North High. One of our guys still has the state big school record for points in a game.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

Wasn't aware of it. I might check it out. AZSports has the Empire of the Suns podcast on their app and the host is the most boring guy you can imagine.

There's several podcasts now. There's the BSotS podcast. There's the Suns Locked On podcast with Kellan Olson and Eddie House. Empire of the Suns is affiliated with KTAR and is hosted by Olson (again) and Kevin Zimmerman who has the enthusiasm of a door mouse.

He's such a good dude that I don't really like hating on him even if he can be super goofy.

Wednesday will make 3-weeks post surgery for Bender. He's been out of the walking boot for a while. I look to see him back working out in about a week.

I listen to Locked On every now and again. It's a good length for my commute. I'm not an Eddie House fan, though. He doesn't seem all that knowledgeable. Mostly speaks in athlete cliches.

Apparently Gambo has reported that neither Chandler or Knight will play much the rest of the season. The Suns are committed at looking at all the young players and we may not see them at all.
