Game 37: Suns @ Knicks

Shots in and out in detriot too

Dragic averaging 40 mins a game rather than 34 does not make a difference. You guys have to realize they're professional basketball players.

Yes, yes it does.

Minutes definitely add up.

plus the Morri haven't stepped up in Bled's absence

It's not that we need them to step up, it's that they have stepped down (WAY DOWN). But their regression started even before Bledsoe went down.

Statistically that isn't true. In fact Marcus was doing better than his average over the last five games point wise, and rebounding around his average.

Marcus didn't give us much against Memphis or Detroit. My point wasn't that they haven't done anything nor was it that they haven't had a good game.

Sorry, I can only go off what you said. I can't guess to what "way down" means to you. but if way down means scored more than his average over the last five games, than I agree with you about Marcus.

More SMH, the reason the Knicks play Hardaway so much and that we don't play Goodwin/Len so much is that, among other things, the Knicks were 14-22 going into this game and the Suns were 21-15.

It also helps that at this point, Tim Hardaway Jr. is better than Alex Len and Archie Goodwin.

Who is to say that if Len or Goodwin played for NYK and got those kinda minutes that they wouldn't be putting up good numbers too?

Anyone who knows basketball. I'm not trying to criticize Len or Goodwin, but Tim Hardaway Jr. is just more of a finished and polished product than either of those players.
