Suns News: Week 1 10/17-10/22

[EDC]

I wonder if we are going to get a trifecta in the news today. We had the firing, the tweet, will the suspension come next? Really interested to see the response from the NBA on Jackson's gesture.

Not nearly as big of a deal. The rookie just needs to learn to handle things better but it will be amusing seeing the response from the media if all three things hit today.

Four things they should do -

- Tell Bender that he needs to shoot the ball more and if he's afraid to, take him out.

- Don't let Chriss just stand around the 3-point line on offense. He needs to be a lot more active.

- Play Len over Chandler

- Play Ulis more and run an actual offense (and getting another real point guard when you trade Bledsoe wouldn't hurt)

It would be nice to add a trade to that list of Bledsoe--just get him out of here. Im tired of internal drama on a bad team.

Is Bordow actively trying to get the Suns in trouble?

Interesting. Bordow is a snitch?

[Superbone]

Snitches get stitches! Just sayin'.

[Split T]

My guess is he was asking what they were planning to do. The league was obviously already aware of what Jackson did.

McD mentioned that the league spoke with Jackson in his interview this morning.

Are we sure that Jackson wasn't talking and pointed to Bordow? He seems pretty committed to making that suspension happen.

It's fascinating to read all these tweets, etc, but got damn there is way too much getting out into the media. Like, nobody in or around the organization has the respect to keep internal discussion internal. We lack professionalism.

Have you heard of the velvet rope defense?

[iLLmatic]

Suns made him look like a super star. All the Laker bandwagoners and Ball fan boys creamed their panties after that game, too bad our team is just THAT BAD. He came back down to earth the next game against the Pelicans.

Have you heard of the velvet rope defense?

I think that's the play that was followed by a time out, and Bender was so mad about our defense that he slammed the ball onto the court and went to the timeout shouting.

Bledsoe doesn't play D like he used to (was well above average at his position for quite a while), Tyson doesn't move at all, and Booker is just waiting to get his next FGA.
