+/- so far -

Leuer -20
Warren -20
Chandler -23
Bledsoe -25
Booker -18

And I don;t think the problem is Warren....

A quick look at the box score suggests that we've made Raul Neto into an offensive juggernaut.

Len +5. So of course when Chandler comes out Tele checks in.

Not that I mind Tele playing but the rotations are just so random with Coach.

Price fouls hood on a fadeaway J with time winding down. He is NOT a good defender: he is just overly aggressive.

Booker was pretty bad in his time out there to start the second half. Like worse than D-league bad.

Hornacek's last game or nah?

This team looked pretty inconveniencd out there. Just nothing working and that seems to be expected and generally ok with most of the players.

The overall mood seems to be: "Well, there's the ball. But it's pretty far away..."

BTW why were the Jazz announcers rubbing their sports boners all over that Alec Burks dunk. He jumped high. Leuer got out of the way. Burks didn't quite get to the rim so he threw the ball in and then fell down. Do they not see many dunks in Utah?

We asked for TJ and Devin in the starting lineup. We got it.

We asked for a strategy, even if it's tanking...
I love it. Next is Len for Chandler and we are set.

Not a great idea if all that matters is the now, but we have all the time in the world so let's give the kids and the coach their time to figure it out.

Glad to see Knight doing great in his first game as 6th man.

Doesn't bode well for his future here if that's the case.

Loved the new starting lineup. Hated the start.

This team is not making the playoffs. The Jazz are a much better team than us. We got outworked and outplayed.

The main Jazz play-by-play guy really annoyed me tonight. First he made crap up saying that Hornacek and Morris have a beef. Then the whole night he had no clue how to say Teletovic. He was calling him Tella-TOV-itch or some such garbage.

I'm not mad we lost; we suck. We'll lose a lot. I'm mad that they play Booker only 13 minutes, Len 17, and M******f M****s (yes, he's getting the asterisk treatment from now on from me) 21 minutes. Trade this bum already.

Bledsoe 2-10, ugh.

I continue to assert that we are a dumb team, an unintelligent team, and that this is the root of our problems. Who is the most intelligent player on the roster? Who is the most intelligent person in the Suns organization top-to-bottom?
