Jeff Teague starts, or Jamal Crawford plays 38 minutes?

Both. Teague starts and is pulled at the 6 minute mark. Gets a few more minutes in the 3rd. Jamal gets the rest.

I'd put good odds that Teague doesn't start and plays fewer than 15 minutes.

Smith's defense has kinda sucked this year.

Teague makes one bad play and he gets yanked, Josh makes bone head play after bone head play and he stays in the game.

Warning for Phoenix Fans: Your rebounding totals may appear larger against the Hawks than they really should be. Don't get used to it and expect similar results against teams that try.

Josh is such a sensitive person that it would hurt us even more if Drew benched him. Sad, but true.

As a franchise we aren't spending enough on Psychiatric services. Between Josh and Marvin one could build a practice up.


Also Teague is playing well tonight. The confidence of 1 night only that he might get to stay on the court.

I feel sorry for Damien. He has to chase Nash and then fight Gortat for position. It's happened over and aver again.

Played hard but ran out of steam. Couldn't get baskets or stops late.

i know a bit late-- vs Lakers observations
-but Josh needs to lose weight to play the 3,
when he was at 220-225 range, he could get by on speed, transition, and oops but now'
he is just a step slow and can't even get a pull up midrange off against any position 3s or 4s
His midrange kept ATL in the CLE series in 09 or 10 I believe,

It was better when he was 225SF playing the 4 rather than this lethargic JSmoove we R seeing right now, it may be 2 deep in the season to have him lose that weight, he is probably 240-250 right now!
