Game 72: Phoenix(23-48) @ Utah(35-36)

[RunSunRun]

Kendall may not be a bust and Wes Johnson may figure into our plans (if he comes back for cheap)...and we lost to the team we need to catch the Lakers.

Only better ending would have been the T-Wolves beating the Lakers, but they have lost 22 straight against them for a reason,

[Cutter]

Have the Suns ever been 31.5 games out of first place in the history of the franchise?

[Revived]

Man I'm kinda starting to wish that we had picked up Wes Johnson's option for next season. I'm really starting to like his play.

[WallabyPie]

So **** up that Dragic isn't playing. What a joke of an excuse. Yeah, "rest".....at least say the guy is hurt or something.

DNP-tank Popovich-style

His team option was about $5.5M. We should be able to re-sign him for much cheaper.

[phrazbit]

Yeah, they should be able to retain Johnson for less than his option figure. Its nice to see him putting up some scoring numbers... but his shooting percentages are still awful. A SG with bad handles who cant even crack 40% shooting should not run more than 3 mil.

BTW, 28 teams played tonight and Kendall led the league in assists!

13 assists in your first career start is pretty nice. I'm not even mad about the 5 turnovers attached.

[Calvin Klein]

Just wanted to mention that Matt Harpring is a **** ****.

I really wish someone could work with him on his shooting form. Some guys can get away with an unconventional shooting style, but Marshall's is terrible and I don't see him ever being able to shoot consistently until he finds better form. Doesn't Eddie Johnson teach people how to properly shoot a basketball? Can the Suns please hire him to fix Marshall's form?!

It's very tough to reteach correct shooting form, and even tougher to have that form make a consistent change for the better. At this point, he needs to practice shooting hours a day, if he wants this fixed. Summertime would be the best working on his shot. If he is smart, he will work on both his shot and his defense this whole summer. If I were him, I would hire two different coaches and work on both daily. He could be very good if he works his butt off.
