Game Day: Suns (9-21) @ Rockets (22-9), Mon 12/26/16

Another embarrassing effort for the most part. At least I think we have enough evidence to see that Bender should be starting over Chriss.
If Watson is going to be a shit coach in terms of X's and O's and strategy he's got to do a better job motivating these players and getting more effort out of them. These guys are just going through the motions. Tired of all the lip service about what "needs to happen." START MAKING PROGRESS!

Booker fouling out in the 3rd quarter is a microcosm of the ignorance this franchise displays on a daily basis. Terrifying.

Bender really started 1-6 and finished 5-11 with 13 rebounds? Not bad buddy!

Come one, come all! The AMAZING Brandon Knight, almost an All-Star once in the East, can now be yours! 21 points on 6-12 shooting, all in just 24 minutes! He shoots, he scores, he makes Julianne fries! Is there anything the Amazing Brandon Knight *can't* do for your team? And if you call right now, he can be YOURS for the low, low price of just a SINGLE first-round pick! Operators are standing by.

But seriously, great job for Bender tonight in a lost cause game. The dude should be getting way more minutes. Did he park in Coach's reserved parking spot once or something?

Also, hooray for the Rockets rookie shooting granny free throws. That was amazing. More guys should do it. The fact that they don't try it just because they're embarrassed is ridiculous.

First career double double for Bender. Knight's last quarter chucking was terrible

EJ wouldn't stop talking about knights selfishness

It's good Knight was being called out on it.

it would only really mean something if Watson or McD said it

but then again they said the right things last week and it didn't translate to jack s*** on the court

Hey, Bender got quality minutes and played well. That's progress.

Wasn't me. That's Indy's thing.

What was he saying? Missed the game.

It was just in the last few mins. The game was over as a contest and it was knight and the end of our bench on the floor. Yet Knight was only looking for himself and showed no intention of passing. EJ was saying knight can get his shot anytime he wants but its important he gets the young guys involved now since they have been the cheerleaders supporting the others through the losing all year. Getting them some shots now keeps them motivated and if they don't they might wonder why they bother to support those ahead of them through the losing.
Knight got taken out with two minutes left and I'm fairly sure EJ said that was a good thing/should have come out sooner.

I am paraphrasing but that was the gist of it.

Knight just doesn't "get it." Crazy that he considers himself a point guard.

I was thinking he was forced to play bender due to the Dudley being injured. Just on that, was Dudley injured, it wasn't clear to me

No news about any injury to the Dudley. Officially, the he was available to play and got a DNP-CD.

Watch us trade him for Rudy Gay, in an attempt to jag the 8th seed (and then Gay will take all of Chriss and Bender's minutes)
