Warren, Ayton and Holmes out.

This will be the Booker ISO Show.

Really want a big night from Bridges. He's a lot better than what we've seen so far. Glad to have him over Donte DiVincenzo.

I really don't think he will. Unless you mean like 12pts, he's got a chance at that. But there's no way he's stopping Lillard. At all.

That's exactly what I said, JYD. But no, we need another 20 year old project.

Also, Melton and Bender are horrific.

Booker playing his best first quarter in a long time. Having Jackson in there as another defender n playmaker is covering up Booker's faults too.

Meaningless coming from Dudley. Can replace Conley with Tyson, Dudley, and Ariza and even arguably Anderson at the time we acquired them. All went quickly from winners to guys who were above playing hard.

I'm not saying Conley would have the same issue, but Dudley saying this is beyond meaningless.

I’d sit oubre for a minute for that blatant hogball move. Had Jackson for a lay up.

Oubre had Jackson but wanted to try to split 2 defenders. Worse black hole than Warren.

Bender first player in a long time in first two starts of the season got a double double. Impressive.

We are not as bad as I thought. Still as Booker-dependant as I thought, though

He missed someone earlier aroundthe hoop also. He's the biggest ballhog on the team despite the complaints re: Booker and Warren, and he's much less productive/efficient offensively than both.

Just as I say that, Booker starts with the iso n gets stripped by curry haha. Stay within the offense.

Return to Phoenix Suns
