Nice..good to start it soon and get the hype on.

And who the hell are you?

Your one and only SunsReadyToRoll.

Not making anything big until regular season games which matter more.

Were you previously Dragictime88?

Yes, I was. good catch.

Is Warren now ahead of Tucker for a starting spot, or are we just experimenting?

Why you changing your name?

it's unlikely harden plays, at least from what i saw happened to him against orlando. didn't look bad but preseason precaution is likely

I know that is only preseason, but I want to win.

This offseason we are developing a winning mentality.We went to the final at Summer League and we are 2-0 until now in preseason, hopefully we win against Houston.

I'm pretty sure their just experimenting at this point. Wouldn't be surprised to see Bledsoe and Weems be the starting backcourt some game this week after Knight and Goodwin got the chance last week.

Capela's gonna feast

Teletovic Leuer frontcourt Or should I say Cory Jefferson - Henry Sims?

Seems like it would make sense to sit Len or Chandler but not both. Maybe they want to get a look at the backups.

Is this a thing to concern? I hope Chandler's spasms are temporary.

It is weird to sit both Chandler and Len. I guess they figure without Dwight, Houston don't really have any other true Centres, so we can match up with an arrangement of our PFs at the C spot. Gives us the opportunity to take a good look at the 3rd string prospects.

Also, didnt we sit Bled last game too? That's weird as well, you would think they would alternate between him and BK sitting. Perhaps try Bled and Weems/ Booker this game and rest BK. Perhaps they know Bled has been there all season, while BK is still trying to find a rhythm.

EDIT: just saw the Coro tweet. Makes sense for Bled. I still think Chandler and Len are just precautionary.

According to suns.com
Bledsoe is illness, Chandler is his back and Len is his ankle

Len injured already? That too foot/ankle issues again?

Len with an ankle sprain?!!? Coro says that is not a serious injury, but it is always a big concern to me.
