A careless team. So much isolation. So much boring and heartless play to watch. Turning it off.

Our three rookies have combined for 3:48. If we're going to get blown out by the f'ing Sixers, can't we at least do it with the rookies? Watching the veterans do this is just so depressing.

You guys let me know when we start playing the rookies. In the meantime, I'll be scouring Reddit.

It was a bit haikuesque. :)

I think we need to barrack for this to be a proper blowout so that we have virtually no choice but to go with the rooks.

Rookie of the Year candidate. You can see why Watson gives him way more minutes than Bender. :)


On a serious note they probably shouldn't have given him a starting job so soon. His effort on defense needs a lot of work.

I believe that highlight was a dunk that occurred after the foul and didn't count.

The defense was a team "effort" in the first half - Philly scored 66 on 52% shooting

Heh Chambers has had enough of watching this garbage. He is getting annoyed.

I swear the guards are pretty lazy at times and just let guys go around them hoping our centers will clean up their mess.

So tired of our announcers just slobbering all over Embid.

Chriss and Embid throwing each other around.

Why does Watson have Chriss on Embid over Chandler?

Chandler just kinda jogging back on that fast break. It was okay though he picked up a guy never mind that he just gave up an easy 2.

I guess I can't really fault him at this point though. Why give full effort for such a crappy team.

I wonder which is worse. The Suns defense this season or the Arizona Cardinals special teams?

Bledsoe taking over in the 4th. Scoring, distributing and playing defense.

What do you know. Booker & Bledsoe combine for 14-27 (12-17 since my post) and now the Suns are up 12.
Go Suns!
