DBook highlights against the Pacers last season


My prediction: Suns 108 Pacers 114 (Every prediction I've made had us winning and I've been wrong. I'll likely be wrong again ;))

Good luck charm!
Spoiler:
Not sure if you guys have noticed, but every good luck charm I've made had something to do with an opposing team's player. ;)

So I guess Len's starting since Chandler went to Cali to his mother's funeral tomorrow? I like how they do yoga to ease the mind followed by the f bomb speech.

Also like the tweet about how Len is a little older today. Something you could tweet every day.

I gotta ask - who here thinks we'd have won at least 5 games by now if Tyler Ulis played 20 MPG?

I'm in that camp.

That's tough to determine. I know TJ and Booker would excel with a pass first PG. Does that equate to more wins. Not sure.

If it meant Knight playing significantly less, then yes. But when he has played, Knight still usually controls the ball and takes all the shots so it doesn't matter. But if the second unit was Ulis, Barbosa, Tucker, Bender and Len, then yes.

Ulis just changes everything about this team when he's on the court. The defense is more intense, the offense flows, guys get the ball in rhythm. It's undeniable. Dude deserves PT. Suns basketball is hard to watch right now.

All I want is for Dragan to start and a DNP for Tucker.

We, as a fans, would win big with a better product in the court for sure. That's all the really matters for now.

You seem to have some clear Bender hatred due to your limited viewings of him at 17. Any other opinions or contributions on the team or just the snide comments about him? Chriss has pretty clearly been playing worse.

PJ? Is that you? If so, please go shoot 10,000 shots and get the hell off of the internet.

I would've loved to have seen George play and Bender get some expedience defending a player like him.

Then again, who am I kidding, it's not like Bender would have got much playing time anyway when we have the elite PJ Tucker on the team :lol:

Damn that sucks. One of my favorite players and would have loved to watch him play. I don't want our wins to come simply because stars are out. I want to see the guys play, particularly the ones you don't see all the time.

Don't worry even without PG, their still better than teams like the Nets and Nuggets probably and those are teams we've gotten beat by lately.

I'm just hoping for a close game even if it's another L.

I was hoping for a blowout to get a chance to see a little Arizona vs Cal
probably not going to happen now.

I'd just like to see a little improvement on defense. Hopefully it's a more entertaining game than the Denver game. That one was putrid.
