Man, what a bunch of whiners the Thunder are. They have to cry about every single call.

They need a dominate center in the worse way.

- I don't see the point of having Daniels out there jacking up so many 3s early in the shot clock. That's not good for the development of other guys. Plus he want hitting jack

- we have nothing down low on offense. We keep playing Chriss and Bender like they are frye. Making us an easy team to defend. Can't wait till we overhaul this offense. Run something for Bender for the foul line. He's not strong and quick enough to get all the way from 3pt Line to the bucket. Help defense comes and it gets stripped or he's bumped offline. Maybe mid range or fouline. But no we keep running the same crap and expect progress. He also really needs to develop some moves and not play hot potato constantly. Needs to work on the push shot more. Doesn't take it currently.



- Chandler can't protect the rim for shit. It's like seeing an overfed cat with mics running right by him.

- I don't mind Harrison. Seems to pick his spots. Would be a nice 3rd string.

- At least Peters hit some shots. Reed sadly didn't have much impact. But essentially all we had was watch the pg or booker attack and everyone else stand around.

Point differential -

1968-69 Suns (16-66) -8.8
2017-18 Suns (19-48) -9.0

Depends how you define it.

The inaugural Suns had a decent backcourt and small forwards: Goodrich, Snyder, Van Arsdale, McLemore, McKenzie.
Weak in the post and bench.

Across the back of the head...

He's headed to the Bill Bidwell AZ Pro Franchise Owner Hall of Shame.

He should be already there. SInce moving to AZ, the Cardinals (Phoenix or Arizona) haven't had a stretch of more consecutive losing seasons than Sarver has had. Cardinals longest stretch was 8 years (99-2006).

Payton, Jackson, Daniels and Reed collectively were 7-43 from the field.
That's 16% shooting (or trying to shoot).

I am 6' in shoes, and about 50 pounds over my playing weight, but I think I could shoot 16%. Even if I just closed my eyes and threw it up on a wish and a prayer.
