Chriss making a few nice passes

I don't mean to be a sourpuss, but I find it hard to watch these games. I need something positive to look for. What do you guys look for when you watch? What part of the viewing experience makes you happy?

[Mori Chu]

Also, fuck this game for making me remember that Michael Beasley exists.

The highlights really. Booker getting hot, Chriss dunking, Bledsoe completing a pass without jumping first.

Booker, Chriss and Bender. And to a lesser extent Len as I've been on the Len train since we drafted him, so feel invested. I really only care about how our young guys are going.
I know we aren't doing anything with this group so try to just concentrate on the players who could/should be sort of the next good Suns team

Well, every now and then you get to see something like the 2nd Quarter from Booker. That was worth it. 27 and 6 from Chriss was nice. I also think the NBA has so much talent right now. Watching the Bucks was fun for me. Giannis is obviously a nice treat. Parker is very good and Brogdon was a steal in the draft. They are fun to watch.

Speaking of the Bucks, I think they make the playoffs once Middleton gets back, but if they stay in the lottery and add another piece...Wow!! They could be scary. Could you imagine someone like Malik Monk joining their backcourt? How about Johnathon Issac or Lauri Markkanen?

[Superbone]

Booker got his 20 in the first half. So that's good.

He got 27 in 7 minutes of the 2nd quarter.

It's frustrating that teams like the Bucks are getting rid of their bad contracts and clearing up their log jams while the Suns continue to do nothing.

The useless veterans on this team like Chandler, Tucker and Knight are still on the team instead of trading them away for expirings in the case of Chandler and Knight.

Ryan McDonough seems to always wait till 5 mins before the trade deadline to make any moves during the regular season.

Isn't this McDonough's last season? He hasn't been renewed a contract yet has he?

[Mori Chu]

Thanks for the uplifting messages, guys. That Booker quarter was worth watching, for sure. There are reasons to be positive and enjoy even this dreadful season.

[carey]

It may be. The are no details on McDonough's contract out there really. No one even knows how much he makes. It is possible though unlikely that he has already been re-signed.

Tucker and Chandler have been significantly more useful than Plumlee was. The bucks did well in their trade, but it doesn't really apply to us. I'd be very surprised if we trade Chandler and I don't think we're going to be able to trade Knight. I'd guess Tucker will be traded.

Yeah but Plumlee and Knight are similar in terms of production and contract so why not get rid of Knight for expirings as well.

I get it with Knight, but it is silly to say that Chandler and Tucker are useless. Chandler rakes in more boards than 98% of the league. And despite our desire to go young, nobody on the team plays better defense than Tucker.
