Although I think he's a good player in the right role, what purpose does Tucker play on the team? While his man defense is good, it doesn't benefit us when we play a team that swings the ball as quick as Houston. And he's still searching for his offensive game and its almost January. Start Warren and Dudley off of the bench would be ideal. Dudley at least moves the ball and hits the 3 at a great clip.

Which means Tucker is playing the rest of the game.

Yes, him, Bender and Chriss between 18-20, and Booker just turned 20. There is still a ton of untapped upside with these guys.

Pretty sure Tucker has been searching for his offensive game for 30 years now. Better not hold your breath.

Never seen a team get so many open 3's in my life. I've been watching for 5 minutes.

Isn't Ulis a teenager as well?

Take Booker out. He's stinking up the place.

Benders going to end up with 20ish min so thats a positive...
I think Booker has the playmaking potential to be molded into a point guard much like Harden. Can definitely be beneficial into the future

There has not been a player I dislike watching in the history of the Suns more than Tucker. Even Knight. With Tucker, we have him sitting in front of Warren for 3 years. Ulis isn't that special. Tucker somehow plays no matter who the coach is despite being an orange cone on an entire half of the game of basketball. I don't get it. Not with this team. He has a role on other teams, but not this one, and yet he still gets PT.

Worst game of the season?

I know that they are good but come on...sometimes we look like an amateur team.

I think he's 20 or 21.

I like looking at him because he so cute though...Looking at the rockets roster they are all Ugo's so dont really see a deal that makes sense.

Bledsoe only plays hard when he gets pissed off
