Got to love it. Only in the NBA is it okay for a player to just not give a shit. Then when something changes and they turn it back on it is just fine with everyone in the media.

Look how great Markieff is at basketball, all you other teams in the NBA. He plays like this all the time, honestly. If you ask nicely, he may just be available.

Keiff playing like hornacek was his problem. Hopefully it builds his trade value

Suns have a little bit of pep in their step, which is pretty common after a coach firing. But still on track to lose, which is what it should be.

Chandler is so depressing sometimes. Why even foul the guy if you're just going to rest your hand on his shoulder as he dunks?
Go Suns!

Markieff's first look EVERY time is to shoot. Only if there's no shot on offer will he look to pass, which is infuriating because he's actually a pretty good passer (not to mention what it does for the flow of the offense etc)

Did I just read the bottom line that said TJ Warren out for the year?

The only nice thing about casually watching these games is seeing Booker drain a few silky smooth 3s a game. Otherwise it is like watching someone get a root canal for 3 hours.

I heard him say that. He considered Wooden something of a mentor but he played under Steve Lavin with Baron Davis.

Seriously, after this game, bench Markieff and do not play him another second until he is in another team's uniform.

Same old shit. Losing because the other team shoots twice as many FTs. We're shooting better from the field, from 3, out rebounding them, out assisting them.

Another thing I like about Booker - he doesn't act like he just cured cancer when he makes a shot.

Archie has to be smarter but he was clearly pushed to the ground.
