You really going to bench green?

You can't bench tucker he isn't a good scoring threat would hurt the bench.

96 minutes between PG and SG.

Dragic 32 minutes. Starter
Bledsoe 32 minutes. Starter

Green 32 minutes bench

There are a lot of minutes available for all 3 player. Of course you make +/- minute adjustments based on how each player is playing.

Ok I didn't get to watch the game but, wtf, is Len done here or is it seriously worth giving Shavlik **** Randolph and his 1/3 shooting, 2 pts, 2 reb performance 10 minutes of our no. 5 pick's time? I can't believe the boxscore.

We aren't gonna win for the rest of the week if we continue to play defense like this.

Was at the game with good seats. Few observations:

Real fun game to be at. You could tell green was gonna be on fire after the first couple shots fell.

Ish brings a ton of energy and was great in the 1st half.

Korver can really shoot and would be so f-ing good in this suns o. Mike Scott "the regional manager" is kinda sneaky good.

Suns d was really really bad early in this game.

And most importantly Robert saver uses a 2006 model samsung flip phone. Sat right behind him and am totally puzzled by this.

A lot of wealthy people don't get caught up in wasting their money on constant product updates. My parents in law are the same way. Own their own business so they can afford any phone out there, but they still use flip phones.

Hornacek: "this is 5 games in a row that we haven't played great defense. It's a little concerning." #SunsVsHawks

Only a "little" concerning coach??

Only thing I can think of are the following;
- Hornacek simply rather play experienced players at this time, since the Suns are competing for playoff spot.
- Len is not 100% fit.... but I dont understand why they dont send him to D-League and get some burn.... like Goodwin did.
- Hornacek is trying to set an example or trying to teach the rookies, as per his comments about Goodwin being a good learner watching the game, he wants Len to learn the game from sitting down.. lol.

I'm also baffled.... since Len could of put up 2 pts 2 rebs and a 2 blocks in 10 minutes... and that 10 minutes help his development...

Goodwin also played 1 minuted.... WTF.... might as well just sat him down all game...

if it was an old blackberry or something it would make more sense. you would at least think he would want a qwerty keyboard to return emails and tex. And a screen bigger than an inch; heck at his age I'm surprised he could read the screen.

I think Hornacek is really frustrated with Len. Statues have more movement than Len has had recently. While Randolph certainly is not our long term answer he at least tries to get to balls in his vicinity and could be a nice role player going forward.

We are pretty good at every position except the 5. It will be interesting to see whom we go after in the off season. We really need a big that will provide consistent defense and rebounding on a nightly basis. I would prefer one with a mean streak. I thought Plumlee or Len could be that guy. I am not so sure anymore.

Didn't read all the pages, but was it mentioned if our first half was a league high for this season?

Perhaps we could play a statue of Len? Get a little more movement and save Len's health for a playoff run.

Our overall score was a league high for the season. Not sure about the half.
