Len's looked great tonight. He's making the easy plays, finishing around the basket and just being big.

Tucker is so trash. NBDL or bust for that guy.

Sit your ass on the bench and shut the fuck up Tucker. You're worthless.

Good Lord I pity the team that hires Mark Jackson as their coach. I just wish the guy would shut up.

I've been surprised how bad the Pelicans are. They're making the Suns look like a well-drilled machine out there

And Milwaukee is up 14 on Golden State in the third period.

Go figure.

You missed him pontificating on why Kobe should be an All-Star.

Well, okay, you probably didn't miss it at all.

By the way, the Suns are not piping in much (almost no) music during game play. No player specific cues after made buckets, no pre-recorded chants, no fake cheers. It is awesome. It is letting us here the game and start cheering on our own. It is so much better this way.

They occasionally play a beat on defense to give the fans something to get their best for Defense chants but that's it.

The number of courtside empty seats tonight is a little disturbing.
