Oubre or JJ or both?

I would think that Warren is the odd one out despite his exceptional 3-point percentage.

Fun to get some wins. Book had 41, a season high, on 14-23 shooting and 6-10 from 3. Holmes was 5-6. Josh Jackson, 0-7. Tyler Johnson had a solid game with 14 points and 6 assists.

I was just digging through the standings. Looks like we have the league's 2nd-worst record with 51 losses, with the Knicks in last place with 52 losses. Did you know that the Pacers have clawed their way back to the #3 seed in the East? Also the West from 3-8 is really tight, with just 3 games separating #3 Houston and #8 LAC.

Suns did what they’re supposed to do with bad teams. They put them away.

Also the first time in his career he went for 40 at home.

Odd that a player who averages 24.9 on the season, and 20.8 for his career, should hit 40 so rarely.

He’s hit 38 or 39 a bunch of times...just likes to stop there I guess.

That last turn around jumper with a man in his face was something else.

It was a tale of two halves from three last night.

What!?? There is nothing the Suns are supposed to do with any team. They have the worst record in the league or next to it. To say the Suns are supposed to put ANY team away is a big stretch.
