I want to know how people reconcile the good ball movement we have at times with the bad ball movement we also have. Is it really Hornacek's fault, or do players get away from that system in the heat of the game?

I'm shedding tears watching the ring of honor.

Yes, I wasn't excited about it at all, but it was great....but I was thinking about how it will probably make fans more depressed about the current state of the Suns.

Is KJ not in the ROH?

He is..not sure why he isn't there though. He mentored Nash too...too bad he's not there for whatever reason.

Same here. Watching the highlights/MVP chants made me shed a few tears. I would die to watch one more season with Nash, Amare, Marion and Co.

OT: Marcus Morris tearing it up in the first 3 games. Pistons 3-0. Meanwhile we have Tucker lol

Nash should be part of the Suns front office, coaching staff or as consolation working for Toronto Raptors only for his canadian basketball roots.

Its a crime that a top tier 3pt shooting team like Warriors got richer by having Nash work for them.

Bring home Steve!!

Hornacek has often said that with young players the system breaks down sometimes and results in iso's which are not preferable, and then you have some uneducated fans say he runs an iso offense. Some of the more knowledgeable posters haven't posted as much lately, so the viewpoint is a bit skewed for someone reading posts.

I wasn't even that excited about the ring of honor, but I kind of got a bit teary eyed too.

Hence why im finger pointing the coaching staff and the system or lack of system.

Marcus Morris, Tolliver are two examples of players blosoming on a strict system team like Pistons.

I still feel Hornacek is just letting players do their own thing. The fact that Chandler has been a go to guy offensively this game is another head scratcher.. But oh well its working so far.

It doesn't make any sense. Our current squad is much better this season and somehow we became worse? I **** give up

The lack of responses is telling.

At this point just postpone the second half and let Nash's ring of honor continue for another few hours. I'm not asking too much but it's the right thing to do.

Is it me or is Nash a better speaker than Obama?

Probably not just you....but if the team doesn't win the game after the energy created now, there IS a serious problem.

Why aren't they showing it on LeaguePass? They showed some lame dupstep dancers for the Bucks game. I want my free trial money back.
