Just looking at the stats, we didn't do so badly. The only big difference was the 34-26 free throw differnce. Then I looked further down the box score and found our favorite official Violet F*cking Palmer. And her great record for the Suns continue. I think now we are 1-7 when she officiated going back two years. :(

Johnson had a good/decent stat line.

I'm glad to hear that Beasley's becoming less of a black hole on offense.

She will probably officiate at least 15 games or so for us this season. Who knows.

Don't get your hopes up. You'll get disappointed if you do. :dontknow:

We will actually PLAY Wes Johnson this season, Beasley might not be as much of a facilitator as he was in the first preseason game but I'm still confident he won't be a cancer on the team.

WJ4 will disappoint you if you get your hopes up.
With Beasley you at least see he loves the game of basketball. At least he's hustling.

Wes Johnson is a great athlete, however he doesn't use his athleticism at all.
He is a terrible ball handler, inconsistent shooter, doesn't hustle or want to win.
Johnson was given enough chances in Minnesota to produce. Even a good passer like Ricky Rubio couldn't make him an effective offensive player.
He's not bad on D because of his athleticsim but he's lazy. Could be a good defender but doesn't seem to have the right attitude. Does not rebound, block shots, steal, penetrate or make plays for others regularly.

I give you about 2 months and his smile will make you mad. :(
His attitude probably too nice to play competitive sports. :dontknow:
