I came to post the same thing. Bledsoe and Chandler had back to back bad fastbreaks. Bad spacing on the first, and bad timing on the second.

That's 11 turnovers in the quarter.

Knight and Tucker combining for a horrendous turnover there.

14 first half turnovers, 12 second quarter points, 38% shooting, Suns 16 PF, Clippers 7 PF.

Yuck.

We need to run our offense through TJ if we want to have a chance to win this.

Our veterans have looked the worst out there. Dudley can't play the 4 against the Clippers, he' just over-matched against Griffin, who's bigger and quicker. Chandler's been badly beaten and PJ is offering nothing at all.
I'd like to see Bender get some run in the second half and would give a lot of thought to starting Chriss, even with his 3 fouls.

Good point maybe trying to play him into shape?
Cardinals are thin in the offensive line, maybe the Suns can arrange an across the professional league deal. PJ looks like he's around 265.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

I don't know what Watson said at halftime — probably something about love — but this doesn't look like the same team that played that terrible second quarter,

If Watson goes with a Bledsoe Knight Tucker Chandler lineup ever again he should be forced to watch that 2nd quarter on a 24 hour straight loop. And if he does it again then he should be incarcerated.

We need more spacing and ball movement on offense. Sounds like a job for Bender.

Ulis-Bledsoe-Knight playing together? Against this team?

I've heard instead of water boarding the government now uses Brandon Knight lob clips.

Three things you can count on gang, death, taxes, and Blake Griffin being a fake tough guy.

I can't imagine this lineup is going to get much done.

After 3 quarters Knight has shot well (6/11 including 2/3 three-pointers) but has zero assists, rebounds, steals and blocks. And a couple of turnovers.

Bender finally on the floor... Please make me look good for asking for it.
