Bridges needs more than 4 minutes.

You know you need a PG when TJ Warren leads the team in assists, well he's tied with Ayton and Crawford, but not sure that's much better

Happy with Ayton's play the second quarter onwards. Had he come out and played like this from the beginning, the game would look different now.

I'm having more fun watching the Spurs put on a clinic against the Lakers.

I'd like to see a Melton/Booker/Bridges/Warren/Ayton lineup here in the 4th

Ayton already matching his debut performance through 3 quarters: 16/13/5

And he flubbed up the first quarter. So, really, those numbers are from two quarters. This bodes well.

Why is Ryan Anderson playing in a blowout?

Call me crazy, but I think that the Suns are built to take out the Warriors...someday. They just need a real PG and time to mature/gel.

Max offer to Kemba coming? Maybe Rozier?

By the time that happens, though, the Warriors may no longer be the Warriors. Lol.

Only thing to cheer for now is to see if we can force a couple of their starters to return.

Well, what kind of changes would you guys make for the team outside of trading for a PG? Maybe Bender over Ryno? He at least defends some and I don't know that he can shoot any worse than Anderson is. Maybe give Okobo a shot over Canaan?

First 20/10 of Ayton's career!

Call me crazy, but I see a ton of positives in this game.

- Despite being clowned in the first quarter, Ayton's going to end up with 20-15-5 statline and it's the second time we've seen him with many assists.

- TJ Warren looks like a premier 6th man on a championship-caliber team.

- Bridges is playing solid, intelligent basketball

Overall - there is very much a core that is beginning to emerge - and I'm liking this core better than any other young core in the league. It's the PG and role players that are the problem.

Less Anderson, but I wouldn't play Bender. Just more Warren/Bridges/Jackson. I'd give Holmes a shot to do something over Chandler.

Perhaps. And the Warriors may not be the Warriors much longer, yes, but I can see the Suns being the young team that knocks them off their perch.
