And didn't we do it as a favor to his agent?

You only have 10? games to assess what you get with Jimmer...you lost by 10 or whatever anyway...wtf not play him substantive minutes and see wtf he does for you so you have a clue what to do with your option this summer based upon some reasonable in game performance? FFS...

What we have is a ball-dominant player who had never practiced with the team. I’m OK waiting another game or two for his debut.
Too late. He debuted last night. Albeit, only for 4 minutes and 1 FGA. He actually hit his first shot but it got waived off for an offensive foul.

Must’ve looked away from the game for a bit. I see he was out there with Okobo, Daniels and Spalding, and it didn’t go well.

He’s missing from the BR box score and play-by-play. https://www.basketball-reference.com/bo ... 30SAC.html

I know it was you, Fredette.

Jimmer is averaging 18 rebounds per 36 minutes for the Suns this season. We've finally found our answer for the power forward spot!

More Jimmer please and less Daniels. Only because we know what Daniels is at this point. And please never any more Crawford

... back to the game ...

Suns should have beaten the Kings. After building an early 14-pt. lead, Suns players started jacking up ill-advised three pointers (and missing).
They should have worked the ball more for easier, close-in shots.
Lack of patience, poor shot selection coming from immaturity.
There's physical talent on this team, but not much in the way of basketball smarts.

Totally spaced on the game last night...here are some Bridges highlights if you click on the entire thread. Looked like he had his best game of the year.

Although that's not good video quality I'm glad someone highlighted this play. One of the main reasons I still watching and sounding like a broken record at this point is to see how often Mikal goes off the dribble
I smiled really big at this move lol
