Happy new year posters.

The Biz is back!

Just in time for our game

A Kaminsky/Biyombo frontcourt, for the league leading Suns, what a time to be alive

its my nightmare that Charlotte get owned by them. Just a montage of Frank swishing 3's and Biyombo laughing evilly while swatting shots and doing the finger wag.

Edit: Frank is out

Is Ayton still out?

I'm caught up and live.

We are seeing just how bad we are defensively when we play against a team like the Suns who execute so well on offense. It exposes us to an embarrassingly bad level.

Only way we beat teams like the Suns is if we go balls out crazy, outshoot them and put up 160pts.

He didn't throw it down, but just due to the fact he put himself in the position to, and went for it, you have to love Thing #1's gumption.

Ended the quarter strong. Only down 9 instead of 29.

I'm SO glad that JB has gone away from keeping Ish on the bench and only using TRo as the back up PG.

Ish brings a lot of intangibles to our team.

Roy Williams is sitting behind the Suns' bench, cheering on Cameron Johnson, who got the start tonight.
