Suns taking a lot of charges in this game.

[Superbone]

TJ!

TJ Warren is our secret weapon.

[Superbone]

Nice drive by Ennis.

97-89, Suns - Final. It wasn't that close. We had a double-digit lead for most of the second half.

[Xylus]

Suns win!

97-89

I wish I could've watched the game. Also how was Espo pronouncing Dragic's name?

Drag-Itch

I heard him say Drah-jick.

At least he didn't pronounce it like this:

Ha ha, Xylus. Those are hilarious.

TJ Warren just put up 8 points in less than a minute.

My feeling on TJ is this: If TJ Warren is on the floor, I don't want any of the other 4 Suns players to shoot it.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

[Superbone]

I think Warren will be getting at least 20 minutes a game as the season rolls on.

5 things we learned from Suns v. Nuggets: http://www.nba.com/suns/postgame/five-t ... svsnuggets

3. "T" stands for "Tolliver" and "Threes"

Anthony Tolliver didn't hesitate the moment the ball touched his hands. Set, shoot, score.

And that was just the first play of the game.

The free agent signee nailed a trio of three-pointers from downtown, feasting on looks far more open than he's used to.

"I told Goran after the game, 'I might lead the league in three-pointers made and attempted this year' because I'm going to get a lot of open shots," Tolliver said.

1. Coaching dilemma

If Hornacek's postgame comments were any indicication, don't expect a set rotation anytime soon.

"We've got a lot of guys that can play," he said. "We're going to keep reiterating to these guys that some nights...you'd like to say you kind of have a set rotation, but I think with this time it's going to probably be more feel of who's playing well that night. The guys who are playing well together will play longer. Guys can't worry about because the next game [might] be their game. Who knows?"

Indeed, Tolliver's return from injury provides yet another look on the frontline. Green, the Morris brothers, Tolliver, Warren, and Tucker will all be eligible for minutes at either forward spot.

It will be up to Hornacek to reward them accordingly.

I think Eric Bledsoe is going to have a big year. I'm a little worried about Goran because I'm not a huge fan of guys playing year round and I think Goran may wear down. Eric, though seems to have a lot to prove and Grant Hill said that the training staff says he's in the best shape hes ever been in and came to camp in the best shape of anyone. The injuries obviously are the biggest concern, however He's been pretty efficient these first 2 games. I'll always be a more of a Goran guy, But I'm worried about the wear and tear and I think EB could explode this yr even more so. Playing with a chip on his shoulder too I think because a lot of people questioned (and rightfully so) his worth this offseason

Agreed. Either way it is going to be exciting.

10 page Game Day thread for a meaningless preseason exhibition? I love you guys. It's so awesome to see so many posts and users actively using the site. When I made it earlier this year, I just hoped that we could get a few of the old gang back to talking Suns. I didn't imagine that it'd become so lively here and get so many people back together. It really makes me happy to see all of you guys here. *sniff*

GO SUNS

[Indy]

Stop your sniffling you baby!

Although I feel the same way. It's still our same community and it feels great. Thanks again MC.

Well something may expire soon. Hopefully it does so it can be taken and redirected here.

[Indy]

Yep. Less than 30 days now. Someone should call Sose and tell him to take off any auto renew he might have on it.

Sose hasn't responded to anyone's request for anything in nearly a year.
