I fully blame the training staff for Cam missing this game.

Illness? Coronavirus? That would fit the story of this season.

We got robbed of seeing Jordan Mcrae and now Cam is injured..I predict half of our roster injured by next month. We love injuries what can I say?

I hope Booker is watching the golden state game tonight and how Curry plays, it's beautiful basketball and he is capable of a similar style of play

It's crazy how much better Curry makes his teammates, I pray Booker would realize he is more Curry and Klay and less Kobe, it's just not his skillset, while the other two could be.

He's still young let's hope he realizes it here before getting traded and actually playing for good coaches that set him straight. I want nothing but success for him, but our two stars aren't gelling and it'd be a shame keeping him longer here while Monty is still coaching.

I agree but they are both very young and we have been quick to give up on players, watching Chriss tonight is a reminder, he is turning into a really nice player for the Warriors. Unfortunately we have lost our ability to have patience societal and due to poor coaching and management the past decade so Suns fans have become even less patient and understably so.

Imagine how good Booker will be on another team - MVP level good.

It doesnt happen by accident. While the scumbag Mark Jackson was coaching the Warriors, there was no accountability, no development, no success. It comes and goes with a coach who doesnt care that much wether his players like him or not, and wether he gets fired or not. Most of the problems we see are within Montys responsibility - directly as in in-game adjustments or indirect as in holding players accountable and telling them to their face that their approach is wrong.

Eff it, start Lecque!!!!!!!

Lecque could be our next Shake Milton.

I was thinking center.

But seriously, why not start him? See if Rubio can reign him in offensively, and Bridges defensively. If this season is close to over, lets see what these deep bench guys with potential can do.

But knowing us, we probably start Baynes and Saric, and watch Portland run circles around us.

Well for one he cannot shoot yet!

Could you imagine if Lecque dropped 39 on Portland, shooting 7-9 threes? This board wouldn't know what to do.

Minor details, it would be one less thing Rubio would have to teach him offensively.
