I did not like the last 2 possessions. The best we can do is James dribbling down the clock for a step-back long 2? Then after that made 3 they don't take care of the ball?

Having trouble keeping hold of the ball late. It's actually funny watching Warren and Bender who cant just hold the ball and wait for the foul.

Looking at the stats, he got a lot of minutes on those absolutely awful sixers teams. He definitely put up a lot of 3's

Joe Blo off the street is our second leading scorer and best PG again with a 17/6/4 night.

Len in the last 2 games - 56 Min, 11/17 FG, 4/4 FT, 33 Reb, 10 Ast, 2 Stl, 2 Blk, 26 Pnts

yes my fantasy teams those seasons can confirm

Does Canaan have to leave when Booker comes back? Can we cut James instead?

Canaan in his two games with the Suns - 53 Min, 9/15 FG, 3/5 3-Pt FG, 11/12 FT, 9 Reb, 13 Ast, 3 Stl, 32 Pts

we got a lil frantic at the end but what I continue to enjoy is it just seems like we winning the hustle plays now and the rebounding battle

Mavs shot 36% and played Yogi Ferrel 42 minutes.

I hope Booker is watching and beginning to understand where guys can make shots. I'd like to see him come back form his injury and continue adding passing to his game.

James worked for it and has earned a spot on an NBA team.
trade him for a 2nd round pick

I love Canaan! It's just so nice having a competent PG out there. Love his defense too.

Why not cut Ulis, he really is pretty awful if you have been watching.

I have to believe even James + - is beter than his.

I am glad we got a win, and it was great to see Canaan play so well. But what does it say about this team that basically a guy walks in off the street and is our second-best player? Geez this team is bad.

No one is giving up a 2nd round pick for Mike James.

our starting lineup is very imbalanced with booker out. No shooting and no real inside scoring to speak of. With bender starting to shoot better, our bench looks more threatening than our starters. I didnt think we had any business winning this one. We looked awful in the 3rd. We ran the weave so often and it blows. Please runs plays for our roster dont transplant some bs system that requires guys we dont have - no mans land.

refs kept making calls on the suns also. Mavs didnt take advantage in the 4th and their shooting went cold

Disgusting. Mike James doesn’t belong in the NBA unless he is the 15th man

I don't know if you guys saw the game, but Mike James closed it for us. We need all 3 of these PGs, because none of them is good enough to stay on the court for a full 24 minutes.

Ulis makes better decisions, better passes

Canaan is playing well above his career stats, so we'll need to see more.
is 26, the same age as James
