Suns came out aggressive to start the half. Now lead by 1. Booker looking like Booker.

Dudley was slow when he was skinny. Oh well more time for the rookies.

Totally fair, but it's worse now.

Anyone have a simple box score? I swear I hate when they do weird crap with the simple box score.

Yeah he is looking chubby out there.

Suns by 4 with 2:45 left in the 3rd.

The Ulis is in.

Closing it out with Ulis-Goodwin-Bender-Chriss-Sauce

Suns are up by 2 with 2:47 left.

Suns pull it out 91-86 off of a big 3rd quarter where they outscored the JV Spurs 33-18.

Thanks for the updates. At least Wednesday's game is on NBATV.

Please hire some devops professionals so that you can expose these issues during your development cycles.

Thanks.

Maybe they can talk to Trump's 10 year old. I hear he is great with the cyber.

any idea where I can see some highlights of the game besides the very brief recap on nba.com? Been a little bball starved and the only ones on youtube were only of the spurs.

None of the streams on the Firestick were working last night. Bummer. It's 2016 and the game coverage is on the 1987 level.

Glad Booker got off to a good start. How many games til Knight cries about his role?

Seems like most of us feel the same way , I think Bone said at least tomorrow night is on NBAtv

I thought Bender looked great in the little bit of the game I got to see. Because I couldn't tune in until halfway through the third, I can't speak to why the Suns played like such a steamy pile. At least we got the W.

Looks like this season will not be free of malcontents. Neither Knight nor Goodwin is happy here, I'm sure. I think having Knight take all of Bled's backup PG minutes is pretty smart, but struggling to beat less-talented teams in the preseason spelled doom for us last season. I suspect we may be able to come together a la Portland after what I suspect will be a rough start to the season.

Given Chandler's play, perhaps starting him over Len was the reasonable thing to do. Showcases Chandler (whom we'll have to move if we extend Len), hides Alex (improvement from whom would only increase his RFA pricetage), and brings more seasoning to our starting unit, so Bled, Devin and TJ have only themselves to blame if the starters can't produce.

I concur on Goodwin and Knight, athough the first news we've seen on the valedictorian are not discouraging. Goodwin needs to be find a new place for sure, though.

Avoiding the press in the morning, as well as after the game, while others are giving interviews, is a bit discouraging.

Fair enough, but I'll wait till the real games start and then I'll form an opinion on his attitude. But regardless, we have a logjam and he is the prime candidate to be moved out.

He just got demoted. Who would go want to talk to the press after that? You wait until you show everyone that although you were demoted, you are better than that. He hasn't shown that yet, so we wants to avoid the questions until he does. Not a story. It would be much worse if he were talking to the media and saying how he is disappointed in the coaches decision, and he deserves to start.

Ehhhh, he didn't shoot very well. He defended sort of o.k. He was aggressive to start the 2nd half. I don't expect to hear a peep from Knight... if we're winning.
