After eight years with Portland, Robinson spent four years with the Suns, averaging 16.4 ppg and 37% from the arc.
He's also one of five Suns players to score 50 or more points in a game.
Cliff is 50? Man, I feel old.
I'm guessing those 5 suns players are... Chambers, Barkley, cliff, Tony delk... And amare?
I'm kinda surprised that KJ or Nash never went for 50. I so remember that playoff game we lost against Dallas where Steve scored 48 - I think the mavericks were backing off and giving him 12 foot jumpers all game long.

Charles: Correct on the guesses. All except Barkley did it during the regular season. Chambers did it twice, with 56 and 60.

I remember that Delk game. Was it 55 against Sacramento? Maybe I don't remember it. Ha.
Anyone think Booker will have a 50 point game?

With him being able to get 25 pt + quarters at 20 yrs old...Yeah I think he will probably pretty soon.

I should've totally traded for Rubio in fantasy though. He's enjoying quite a renaissance after that poor start to the season and his annual minor-injury-that-keeps-him-out-5-to-20-games ride.
According to Gambo, it was on the table, swapping players that both teams wanted to move, but the Suns didn't want Rubio and his contract.
I call "ass" on that. Rubio's contract is about the same as Knight's.
Gambo is just swallowing the company line, like a catfish gobbling down stinky chicken livers on a hook.
The problem with that trade would be that one of Booker, Bledsoe or Rubio would have had to come off the bench.
The likely choice, for me, anyway, would be Bledsoe, who is the quintessential change-of-pace guard.
He could sub in for either Booker or Rubio.
But Bledsoe came to Phoenix to be a starter, so that would not have worked out well.
Bledsoe is their guy, and they are going to ride that pony until it breaks down ...

Ever? Yes. This season? No.
I don't buy the theory that we could have swapped Knight for Rubio but didn't because Rubio is too good to come off the bench. He isn't.

Delk had 53 against the Kings in a 121-117 OT loss.
He was 20-of-27 from in front of the arc (no treys!) and 13-of-15 from the foul line.

I'm sure he will. But I'm content to let him get a 40 point game first. Heck, I'd settle for a 5 rebound game!

He's had 5+ rebounds in six out of seven games this month, with four rebounds against Washington.

Do you mean average per game, or are your expectations that low of Booker?

I'm just talking trash about his rebound #s. Don't mean anything serious by it.

Very poorly timed trash talk given his recent rebound #s. It's like saying "In your face!" to a player who just dunked on you.

The afterlife was ok at first, but it turns out the demons torturing me are pretty happy with Booker's recent rebounding #s too.
