right on top. beasley has to discover his role. he can not be our durant or kobe. he has to fit in a system and play his strengths. it does not matter if he plays in the 4th as long as he fits his role. i think a coach like pop can get the best out of him. he would be golden for a team like the spurs.

if i remember right it was 59-59.
and look where are we now. i know beasley played better tonight and brown was average, but i think suns are looking more in sync when they have a unit which fits good together.
it is not all about individual stats.

3:13 Jermaine O'Neal enters the game for Marcin Gortat 57-59
3:13 Jared Dudley enters the game for Shannon Brown 57-59
20-4 run after that


This was the biggest difference, because Brown was killing the momentum. After Brown and Waiters got into that altercation all he wanted to do was go one on one against him. Even at the end of the game they showed a shot of the players smiling and enjoying the win on the bench and Brown was sitting there pouting.

and exactly THAT is why the suns don't need players like that.

Anything is possible in our division. Not many teams playing very well, and tons of injuries. Really only Memphis, SA, and OKC crushing it. The rest of the teams are just doing ok.

I think we can make the playoffs, but it will only come after we let Gentry go. 8-)

That strikes me as a 'telling' statement.


Seems like we have a team that has 1 bonafide starter.... may be two.... and then essentially 10 guys vying for the 6th man of the yr.

Outside of Dragic, and he may be on the bubble, I do not think we have a top 15 player at any position.
