Someone besides Tucker guard Harden. Tucker is just too slow and Harden is too quick. Nightmare matchup. Honestly I think Green didn't do too bad a job last time, but perhaps we run our plethora of wing players at him and see who does the best job. I'd like to see Warren get some burn time, he was pure energy last game and I think he deserves some minutes.

We can't half arse our doubles, if we do any. They killed us on open shots.

If only the Suns were allowed to play as dirty and physically as the Rockets, they'll stand a chance. But, expect sketchy "good" defense from Beverly and a few others.

Bledsoe should just guard Harden. He's shorter but he's long and can actually stay with him.

Tucker's too fat.

Hopefully Tucker doesn't get annihilated by Harden again

Set a blind pick for Beverley every time he pressures full court and don't watch Harden dribble if you're not guarding him so they don't get a layup.

If Patrick Beverely gets 20, I won't be surprised. He is just pure energy.

Another slow start. They must've gotten to the arena too early.

At some point Hornacek needs to be blamed for the Suns coming out asleep at the start of nearly every game.
