How many would rather see Ulis?
Ouch! The sound of everybody raising their hands at once was deafening.

Suns are very lucky to only be down 11 at halftime.

Thank goodness Watson has only played Bender, Ulis and Chriss a combined 1 minute in the first half, otherwise they'd be down by double digits...oh wait...

Looks like the Suns enjoyed LA a little too much last night. Some of the worst basketball I've had the pleasure of watching.

I like Williams. He's a fun guy to watch and he doesn't even have to get into the game.

And yes, Bone, I would rather see Ulis in the second half than AASE.

I didn't take you for an S&M kind of guy.

First half was awful. Signs of life, such as Warren remembering we have a game tonight. I worry about how many low FG% games Booker is having to open the season. He's 4-14 at this point tonight. :-/

Cut the lead to 5, time to bring in AASE to run everything.

-14 with AASE on the court, +4 with him on the bench. Story of the game so far.

Len overshoots the 2ft layup by 5 ft. What a joke.

Sorry guys but Len fucking SUCKS

Can Ulis get some burn please? We could really use his D. Why is LB in, like ever?

Knight useless.

The future of this team is DBook, Ulis, Warren. And Chriss getting no burn?? Really?

Lakers continue to get 4 or 5 attempts each possession. Pathetic.
