Suns News: Week 2 10/31-11/6

Have you ever played with foot or toe pain and a shoe a whole size too small?

Some of the worst. I had to walk around the zoo last year with a shoe size 1/2 size too small and it was grueling and constant in pain and annoyance.

The coaches work out with the players. Interesting.

So, like Nash, Booker practices all those crazy weird shots: http://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/n ... /93372448/

Booker practices with purpose and plays how he practices. Those 13 shots he made against the Pelicans, along with the attempts that drew fouls, were the products of frequent gym repetition to refine his shot and footwork and use his body and mind to create shots that his quickness might not.

“I’m not the fastest guy in the world, but I can shoot it a little bit, so all I need is a little bit of space,” Booker said. “That’s why I try to create. It’s not really a speed or strength thing. It’s more of a pivot and angles thing for me.”

There are times that Booker uses his size, like when he backed down Tim Frazier before turning the opposite direction for a fadeaway, or when he kept E’Twaun Moore and Buddy Hield on one side of his body on separate occasions, only to move the other way from each for a clear shot.
