Game Day: Magic (7-4) @ Suns (4-8), Fri 11/10/17

[The Bobster]

Hard to tell whether Booker has been worse on the offensive or defensive end tonight.

[Flagrant Fowl]

I'm still at the end of the first half, but man, does this seem to be Jackson's breakout game.

Don't watch the second half. You'll feel much better.

[O_Gardino]

Well, that's one way to prevent Dudley from taking your minutes...

Sprained knee.

[O_Gardino]

I'm still at the end of the first half, but man, does this seem to be Jackson's breakout game.

Don't watch the second half. You'll feel much better.

I think ORL had 16 turnovers int eh first half. None so far in the second.

[O_Gardino]

Booker has been sooo intentional about setting up his teammates tonight. I honestly like it, but it didn't work. He'll find that balance of shooting and passing.

[The Bobster]

Len finishes with 21 pts, 13 reb, 2 blk

[iLLmatic]

Alex Len is going to sign somewhere else and average a double double.

[The Bobster]

Chriss & Bender - 39 Min, 7/12 FG, 8 reb, 2 blk, 11 pf, 17 pts

[The Bobster]

Alex Len is going to sign somewhere else and average a double double.

Well, he's averaging 23.3 min, 9.7 pts and 8.6 reb so far this year here.

He just needs the minutes.

[1tinsoldier]

chris fouled out, dudley injured, and Jackson still couldn't get more minutes?

seems there's a disconnect with this coach and suns' management
they're advertising "watch Jackson and the suns play ? on ? night" but this coach seems to be more interested in proving himself with some wins than team development and fan interest.

i'm watching to see the team being developed.

I almost felt like he played indifferent tonight. I hope he didn't ask for a trade too.

[In2ition]

Although, the refs were crap tonight.

[1tinsoldier]

i don't care what the stats show for Mike James and Alex Len
they're just filler for me
i can't put my finger on what my problem is with James besides the ball being in his hands too much for the talent he has
but Len -- as i said last game, doesn't have the mentality
when he does score or rebound it's more his long body being in the right place at the right time rather than his instincts making things happen
twice tonight i watched him box out for a rebound, but let the ball go to someone else because he didn't lurch forward for it
timing
he doesn't have it

[Flagrant Fowl]

Len is a good back up Center who should play 18-20 minutes a game. Someone else can overpay him for that.

[In2ition]

1. The Suns seriously need a dominate center who can play both emds, switch on the perimeter and score inside and out.
2. They need a big athletic pass first pg that can play defense and be a consistent threat from the outside.
3. They need Chriss and Bender to make the jump next year.
4. Warren has to become a consistent threat from the corner 3.
5. Jackson has to improve by leaps and bounds.
6. They need a second or third option to take all the pressure off Booker every night.
7. They need an excellent head coach with a system that matches the talent on the team.

[Superbone]

They should wear these white uniforms for every home game.

For the first half and then road unis for the 2nd. Yeah, that's the ticket!

[Superbone]

Sorry for the CAPS guys.

I'm drinking Reasonably Corrupt from Great Raft. It makes the game much better.

How did it do for the 2nd half? I'm guessing you needed something a little stronger.

[Superbone]

I'm still at the end of the first half, but man, does this seem to be Jackson's breakout game.

Don't watch the second half. You'll feel much better.

Too late.

[Vladimir_Taltos]

How about trying a starting lineup of...

Ulis
Booker
Jackson
Monroe? Or Bender
Len

...give them 35 a game...and see where that takes you...

You mean like the last 5 games? Not proving much in the win department lately.
