Another great start for the starters. 21-9 after 8 minutes.

Gotta protect that Troy Daniels-Danuel House chemistry, though.

Why can't we score in the 1st Q? It has to be more than just lack of shooting, right?
Go Suns!

Just start the entire 2nd unit then. Fuck. They can't be any worse.

The starters suck again, big surprise. I posted in the news thread but it's relevant here, Chriss leads our current starters in 3 pt % at 28%. No surprise that Warren and Jackson aren't finding any space to get to the rim.

We really just need to start the 2nd unit. Warren usually plays with them, so he can stay, but the bench player is better at every other position right now. 21-9 when the starters go out. Then we outscored them 17-4 the rest of the way with the bench.

All Len needed to look good on a pick and roll is a D-League point guard. :)

Jackson with a couple of nice cuts to the basket. I want to see more of that from him.

Monroe would be perfect if he could step out and hit a jumper and play some D. His post scoring and playmaking are really nice. Keep an eye on Wendell Carter, he could be a nice fit with the Miami pick.

For those who missed the Booker interview: he talked about seeing the game differently and realizing what spots some of his teammates prefer and what kind of space they need to be effective. He's looking forward to getting back on the court and finding them in their spots.

Monroe on pace for a triple double. 16/14/10. There's gotta be a team that can use him, right?

Well in not surprising news , the Monroe-Len rotation is being more productive than Tyson-Len

Some real nice passing tonight. Finding TJ on some cuts. Gotta find those guys on the move not two meters behind the 3pt line
