Beat them by 10 games in a race to the bottom? I think so

Elementary, my dear Watson.

We lost to Sacramento by 19 last season opener and ended up winning around 25 games and developing some talent.

don't remember them doing that as often last year.


I'm not completely sure there is any rhyme or reason to anything.

If this and our Jazz preseason game they played without Gobert are any indication of our season, it's gonna be real bad.


from the little I've seen, think the Suns could easily be the worst team in the NBA. complete lack of structure. terrible environment for young players and development.

other bad teams like the Bulls, Nets, Knicks, etc they at least have good structure and defined systems. This team plays like a pickup/intramural team where the guards take most of the shots and ignore the rest of the players.


Without a doubt from what I've seen this preseason and so far tonight. I wasn't a fan of the guard's habits last year either or how some of the guys were utilized at all.

That's what I meant...I figured you were a Raps fan that wanted to see how Bender developed.

It's like the stock market. Don't call it rock bottom until you see it turn around, and not just for one day.

I can't imagine it being much worse though.

But we are only down by 55.
