Still don't get why Tucker starts. He's a BUM.

Way to make a liar outta me, Jon.

My god that team looked very hopeful 2 seasons ago. And then we acquired Isiah Thomas....

Yes! Just what we were saying...even if they have to say he has an "injury" get him the **** out of there!

I always said Ilyasova would be a nice player for the suns.

Kieff isn't our only issue. Hate to point that out.

I do hope TJ gets good mins tonight. If anyone questions his defense then I suggest you watch last nights game again. Go Suns!!

As you know, I'm not a box score watcher. I actually watch the games and I still don't see much from Tucker. Yes, he offers the occasional hustle play/rebound but his defense is highly overrated IMO. He's just an average, maybe below average player. Warren just does so much more for us.

Ahhhh that knee injury he didn't have at the end of the game last night....

Not sure which is the stranger coincidence for his injury;

Straight after a terrible game and that offensive charge...

Or the game he's playing his brother....

I think we know this team isn't more than an average team. When we missed out on LMA, we definitely needed the old good version of Kieff at a minimum just to be avg and have a fighting chance at the playoffs. Our team should definitely be better now than with this year's version of Kieff, but this team really is probably a bit below average on talent, and without Tyson, it will be very tough to win most games, particularly on the road.

I had illusions that our backcourt could carry us this year. Hard to do when the front court is so weak.

I agree. The reason Tucker starts isn't because he is better than Warren. He clearly isn't. It is because we need Warren's scoring when either Knight or Bledsoe sit or our bench gets murdered. Last night they even got slaughtered WITH him.

I like smart players, but they don't grow on trees you know. Bledsoe is not smart. Not in terms of Basketball IQ.
