Yeah, I was going to say with Ashley out that's definitely been Sean Miller.
I really wish we had Ashley back. I believe they still can win the whole thing, but man would that be a huge plus to have him back right now. Foul trouble wouldnt be as big of an issue. Go Cats Go suns!!!

More to the present, UofA is deep in talent, but Miller essentially plays 7 guys.
Point taken - I was mainly referring to D'Antoni's infamous star system and accompanying doghouse.

Another thing though: D'Antoni has had a hard enough time making adjustments to 29 other teams in the NBA - can't imagine what the hell he'd go through trying to adjust to several dozen more.....

Memphis lost to GS and we're now 1/2 a game up on Memphis and a full game on Dallas.
Go Suns!

Yep - Timberwolves scored 143 in regulation shooting 67.1% overall! Love floated a triple-double with 22/10/10 in 29 minutes and Minny pounded LA 49-26 on the glass (and of those 26 boards, 14 were on the O side).

Love it. 8-)

Gotta take care of business against the Lakers and then split the LAC and @Portland twin bill coming up.
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

I sometimes cruise around in reddit's /r/nba subsection, and I enjoyed this thread that popped up there today:

"What are some unknown/lesser-known nicknames for players?"
