Re: Game Day: Clippers (30-18) @ Suns (15-33), Wed 2/1/17

Watson's coaching record after 82 games: 24-58, .293 I will be quite happy when Earl Watson is gone. Is there any real defense of the guy at this point? Can you imagine the heat D'Antoni would be getting if he had this record. We assume Watson was chosen to develop but his player usage says he's tr...

Re: Suns News: Week 14 1/23-1/29

Watson is more blunt: "I can almost guarantee Devin and Eric will be on the same team next year," he said. There's your answer. Is that an answer? How much input does Watson get when determining who stays and who goes? I imagine that he has a voice in the decision, but McD's apparent appr...

Re: Suns News: Week 14 1/23-1/29

I would pass on Cousins. On an unrelated note, if we had a GM that had any sort of clue, we'd move Bledsoe now. His value will never be higher. Move him now (should be a member of the Orlando Magic by the end of February). I wonder why this isn't talked about more--we have question marks at the SF ...

Im curious--is there an offense that you see Bledsoe doing well in as the primary point guard?

Re: Game Day: Pistons (4-3) @ Suns (2-6), Wed 11/9/16

Its games like this that give me hope for Len--he has had a couple of good games this past week, so we will have to see whether his play stays consistent. And It was great to see Booker playing the facilitator role with Dudley earlier in the game. The team has not been very good at sharing the ball ...

Re: Game Day: Pistons (4-3) @ Suns (2-6), Wed 11/9/16

This has been my favorite Suns game to watch for a long time. They led the whole game, they had more assists than turnovers :), and the players seemed to be enjoying themselves. I love the Dudley pickup--I think he has got to be one of the most influential players in that locker room right now in te...

Re: Around the League: Week 3 11/7-11/13

I think it's stupid for Cuban to block the ESPN reporters. It's a petulant move. After looking up the definition for petulant, I now have a new word to try and use this week. Thank you. I'd give up a king's ransom for Gordon. Plug him in at the 4, and I think Booker-Warren-Gordon become a devastati...

Re: Game Day: Suns (1-4) @ Pelicans (0-5), Fri 11/4/16

Been a busy weekend. I'm late to the casting party. Ok with losing to get a good pick but, deep down I want them to win every game. The optimist in me always says a loss is good because we get a better chance at a good pick and every win is a moral victory for the team to build on. Im a little bit ...

Re: Game Day: Suns (2-4) @ Lakers (3-3), Sun 11/6/16

Hot take question: Does LA's potential resurgence somehow negatively highlight Kobe Bryant's value (or lack of value, in this case) to the Lakers last season? Would they have done better as a team had he retired before last season?

Re: Game Day: Suns (1-4) @ Pelicans (0-5), Fri 11/4/16

There has been some really ugly basketball the last 5 minutes. That Knight/Booker backcourt combo was pretty atrocious. No ball movement, and some really ugly shots.

Re: Game Day: Blazers (2-2) @ Suns (0-4), Wed 11/2/16

I absolutely agree--4th in the league in rebounds (averaging 12.5+ per game). I think people were hoping for more offense out of him (and, to be fair, his blocks per game are much lower than his career average), but I think that he has done more than enough as a rebounder and as a vocal defender to ...

Who was it that wanted to trade Len for that tall white girl on the Blazers? Len came up big tonight with 18 points, 6 boards, and 3 blocks in only 21 minutes. That means Len will garbage for the next 5-6 games. One good game every 5-6 is his style. I've heard this argument a lot--it would be reall...

Re: Suns News: Week 2 10/31-11/6

I'd love to see Bledsoe (as well as Knight and Booker) cut down on the turnovers this year. The team gives up a lot of points simply because the guards leap before they look to pass, or because they try to force a play that isnt there.

Re: Game Day: Warriors (1-1) @ Suns (0-2), Sun 10/30/16

Bledsoe and TJ have been our best players so far through 3 games. Its really interesting how the perception of players shifts from the preseason to the season. Whereas Chriss's minutes and productivity have decreased, Warren has really put the team on his back at times. I also think it will take Bo...
