Just think about how great this team would be if we had a decent PG that could distribute. I'm tired of seeing James ball-hog and pound away the shot clock or Ulis throw the ball away or into heavy traffic and get it deflected. It's amazing guys are able to get uncontested shots.

Wow. Awesome D from Booker.

Good defense from Booker, Chandler, Chriss all in the same possession.

We may have to depend more and more on lineups like this.

Do you go James Harden and turn Booker into a hybrid PG? Nobody else has his handles or vision on the roster. He's the closest thing we've got to a PG.

The bench unit minus Bender were god fucking awful and that's why we lost basically. 2 shots made by anyone not named Dragan and that was from Mike James who went 2-10. Everyone else missed all their shots.

I really hate losing to the Lakers at home.

Jackson is by far our best defender at that position, and it guarantees the ball will be in Booker's hands.

I'm totally okay with this loss.

Julius Randle is a clown.

Ulis losing his confidence is an understatement at this point. Last yr when he would get into the lane I would be like "Where you going Tyler..." and then be surprised how effective he was getting off his lil runners off the wrong foot and what's not. He hardly even trying those now and as someone else said now guys going under the screens too n he don't want that shot either and has had to force some with the shot clock running down

Making him a distributor, on a team that can't shoot. AWESOME.

Yep, he's completely lost his shot this year, which makes it way too easy to defend him. He's not going to score in the paint, and he's afraid to shoot an open shot.

He's basically a 5'8" Rondo at this point.

This team needs a veteran point guard who can run the offense and pass the ball.

One of either Ulis or James should be the backup and the other should be cheering alongside Derrick Jones Jr.

The Suns needed Dudley tonight.

Not totally. But god damn we are playing from behind with our current PG situation. Really enjoying the flashes our two young PFs have shown over the last two games though.

Bender's last 4 games: 14 of 24 from the field, 6 of 13 from 3, 9 ppg.

I hate losing to the Lakers, but I don't mind losing some competitive ones.

Mike James was -19 in 16 minutes, troy Daniels -17 in 9, and that just shows how bad that second unit was. James, Daniels, and Len were all just very bad tonight, and Jackson couldn't score despite doing some other things well.

Chriss wasn't bad for the last five minutes, but I didn't really like Triano putting him over Bender at that point. Bender was clearly having one of his better games, not to mention he was one of the only guys who could do something on offense.

I do like that Booker hates the Lakers.
