Getting annoyed with our guards just ignoring Len underneath.

Down by two at the half. Let there be no more talk of the dregs of the league coming into Phoenix not being dangerous.

Suns are playing with fire. (Not in a good way.)

Kieff didn't even try on that fast break. Amare defense.

Does anyone else find the perpetual sound bytes we play on every offensive possession incredibly annoying?

Adams family. AC/DC. Some weird alien tune etc.

Id like to hear THE GAME.

I wonder what the franchise record is for blocked shots in a game because Len is currently at 6.

I love when our guys get the ball at the three point line pretend they have any skill by juking a few times then throwing up a three. If you had skills you would go around your guy and make something happen.

Guys like Green and Tucker need to either catch and shoot or make a quick move to the basket. They get themselves in trouble by trying to do to much on their own.

Len won't get enough minutes. Even if he doesn't get in foul trouble. We traded away Tolliver and it feels like Len's minutes went down. They should play him till he fouls out most games.

Well, I think it's to keep the corporate non-fans who are there entertained.

I loved the old days when the only thing going on was something like the guys who juggled chainsaws performing or the original Gorilla doing something less rehearsed.

Is it just me, or has Miles' play quietly solidified. He seems to be producing slightly above adequate in his backup center role.

This team is really dangerous when Markieff can get it going from 3. He's had the touch from beyond the arc the last two games. Good to see.

After a rather pedestrian first 3 quarters, Thomas came on in the 4th with 7 points and 4 rebounds.

Big win is a big win! Wish the team would reward Len with a fucking touch from time to time. Ridiculous. 16 minutes isn't enough either, though I do understand resting those surgically repaired ankles as much as possible in what basically amounts to his full rookie campaign.
