I guess we will see. My first instinct is "bad". But as much as I wanted Telly in the starting lineup, Leuer with the starters has been brutal in all minutes with those guys together. Our regular starters were not that bad earlier in the year, but of course Tyson was out there being vocal and hauling in tons of boards. Who knows? But hopefully Booker and Warren get plenty of burn. Bledsoe and Knight really don't need to be playing 38-40 minutes. They could split up guard minutes and even give them each 35 and the rest to Booker which would give him 28. And hopefully we resume to Warren getting more minutes than Tucker and Leuer/Telly get their share of minutes

About damn time ... Kief needs to earn his minutes by beating out Leuer and Telly.

With Chandler out I'd expect Kief and Leuer to share minutes backing up Len too.

Someone make a poll: does this move light fire under Kieff's ass making him want to get his starting job back or does he take offense and starts publicly criticizing Suns FO which results with him being traded on Dec. 15th??

One brave move from Hornacek. I am really impressed :nod:
The next one is to put Tucker on the bench too.

Roster changed and updated. Don't worry I still included Kieff's bench in there.

If Hornacek was brave he'd fire himself next. :lol:

I think he is gonna be the same. A decent to good player with a low motor/energy who is a bellow average defensively .
We were expecting one step ahead this season, but he has been one step behind his typical production.

Len shooting threes? I'm not sure it's a good idea.

I like Leuer's energy level so far.

Weird thing was Leuer had Wall on him and he passed to Len. Don't know what to say.

Keef and Tucker are professional basketball players that seemingly can not make a layup.

TUCKER would make more if he didn't pump fake on 90% of layups.
