If I never had to watch Knight again, i'd be more than ok with that.

Knight with more FG attempts than the rest of our starters combined. True PG. Really knows how to run the team and facilitate the offense.

Thankfully the Suns have turned my Friday evening into a Netflix night by the half. Enjoy the rest of the game everyone.

are we actually trying to develop knight at all? He is still young enough that they should be able to tell to stop shooting/ look teammates if he is hurting us and bench him for someone else. I guess a pg should know this already but from a coaching standpoint they could show some initiative - he's obviously not going to change unless we tell him to stop doing it

Time for Sarver and Babby to get the team together for an arts and crafts session. Knight can learn to share the crayons with the other kids and Markieff can try and stay inside the lines.

Game over. 4-6 for 9 points in 16 minutes for Goodwin. Warren had a lousy game and Booker went from 5-10 in the first half to ice cold in the second finishing with 6-17. Ouch. He was the 2nd leading scorer though.
Go Suns!

That was a fun game to watch in spite of the loss. Booker had a great run there in the 2nd half.

I was pretty impressed with Goodwin's play. And Knight had a good overall stat line. Trying to look for little things in each loss to be happy about.

Frustrates me that Booker only finishes with 16 after that.

He played a ton of minutes. He passed up numerous shots. He needs to be more aggressive.

True. He did take 17 shots though. How many would you be comfortable with him taking?

And don't say, "all of them," smart guys.

Warren and Booker should be combining for at least 40 shot attempts a game imo. I'd rather see them chuck away than watch Knight do it.

Bookers 11-0 run was nice. Good loss. Young guys played well mostly. Kieff got his lunch handed to him again so that was nice.
