Booker is missing bad shots.

We have a much more consistant system on both ends even if we have a bad 5 minutes we can get it back.

Good call. The game flipped right then with Daniels and JJ. While they are good at certain things, you shouldn't take out our top two scoring threats at the same time. Warren is always a good fall back option. Sometimes that second unit has trouble scoring without a pure scorer in it. James is probably our third best scorer too, so you're missing your top 3 scoring options at that point because he was out too.

Bender is amazing in this game. He might be the only player in the team that (maybe except Ulis) actually reads the defence and decides what to do after that. Normally our players just decide something to do and stick to that. As long as he is confident, i don't know he will ever score like crazy but he will always do something useful.

He absolutely does, I just remember someone responding like I was crazy the first time I pointed out how stupid it is to have unenforced turnovers at the 3 point line like that every game.

Just shoot it TJ, that's all we want.


He does it on occasion but he doesn't do it twice a game. Maybe almost once a game. He usually rarely has any turnovers.

That was a different patch, he got nerfed this season so far

We finally have a watchable team. That's all I want now after the Watson fiasco.

**** yes they're using Bender as a playmaker like Draymond. my wish has been granted.

post entry and off-ball action. first they ran the strongside flare for Daniels, now for Warren cutting.

Tyson can't get a foul for ****. Look at the ticky tack crap when Nurkic gets a foul call, but we can't get ****

We need to trade Bledsoe for a good defensive 2 guard to play next to Booker and leave him to run the point.


I think he looks to pass as of late FAR more than Kobe ever did, until Kobe played with Steve Nash and for whatever reason decided to prove he could avg a lot of assists too after they added Nash.

Instead of shooting the 3, Warren stuttersteps on the baseline. At least he didnt travel this time.

Not happy with Warren on last few possessions. Getting lazy and then not getting back on D.

Return to Phoenix Suns
