That is all.


Whoops, gave you an accdental and1, I blame the phone. Well Merry Xmas i guess :P

On topic i think it is good the way it is. Frye is better as a starter and helps spread the floor for our backcourt while Markieff seems to gain confidence from being subbed in against bench players and carries that over into facing starters. At the same time I want to see Markieff banging in the paint rather than spread the floor and hover at the three.

Exactly. His numbers are manipulated by his playing time. If Frye got the same treatment as him, Frye would have like a 5% shooting percentage for the seaoson.

Well that's one reasoning I have for Goodwin...

He plays 5-7 minutes... 5+ games in a row... He attempts 1 3pters from each game and misses all of them.... He will have a shocking 3pt %...
But if you look at it per minute and per game... 0/1 3pt attempt is far from bad.


Heck Green goes for 8-9 3pters a game earlier...

Steph Curry nailed 6 3pters the other night I think... But he attempted 16.

That would be great if Ish could shoot 30% from three, but this year he can't, and he is shooting 11%. So if you played for a solid week and shot 1-10 from three, you might suck from the three point line. So far Ish can't shoot this year, and even his lay ups look terrible.

You can try and spin it all you want, in the games I've seen him play, he has consistently bricked wide open shots. And I would rather he did not shoot.

Lol well guys I tried. He didn't shoot any shots today anyways. Lol

My point is, he's good for a 3rd string PG.

Yes he did, he make that two handed caveman layup. :wink: I like him as a third string point guard, and have no problem with him getting some minutes, which has been my view the whole time. Again my point about his poor shooting in no way means I "hate" him, or dislike him.

I completely forgot this was the first night of a b2b..

our record has been terrible on the second night of a b2b hopefully the starters come out to play this time. The mavericks are also on their second night of a b2b and they just had a bad loss to toronto. Hopefully we can capitalize and the momentum of the comeback will follow into tomorrows game. All bets are off though it will be anybody's game tomorrow.

Why are you so intent on manufacturing this Dragic vs Bledsoe drama? I've seen them celebrating during games together lots of times...

I'm not manufacturing their drama, I just thought it was a cool pic.

And I watch Suns games off s**ty streams most of the time so I probably missed it but I haven't seen them celebrating together too often. Not cause they hate each other but because of the timing (ones on the court while ones off or their both on the court but they rush to the bench to get water cause their exhausted etc)

Bledsoe looks so massively strong compared to Dragic.

He really did earn that nickname "mini Bron" from the weight room.
