Game 60: Clippers @ Suns

Suns had the worst defense in the league over the past five games.
Clippers on a four-game win streak.
Dudley's first game in Phoenix since traded.

There will be MVP chants tonight. Question is who they'll be for.

I hope they cheer Dudley in intros.

I know he's sucked in LAC but hell, I'd still take him back here

Tucker > Dudley now. Better defender, better rebounder, more athletic, and much faster.

When Dudley got Tucker's mins, 31 mins a game, Dudley pulled down about 5 rebounds a game which isn't bad. Tucker is the better defender and rebounder, but I'm not sure he's faster and he sure isn't that much more athletic than Tucker.

Dudley's basketball IQ and shooting are far superior to Tucker though. And please don't try to show me stats that show Tucker is the best 3pt shooter in the NBA or some BS like that, I have witnessed him brick wide open 3s all season. For a guy who gets the best looks in the NBA, Tucker should be hitting at a much a higher clip. If Dudley got that wide open looks, he would be hitting a top 3 clip in the NBA.

All that said, I wouldn't start Dudley at the 3 for us either. I'd take him back to come off the bench like the good ol' times back in 09-'10.

That trade was brilliant. We're usually the ones on the other end.

I will give some cred to Kerr for the original Dudley trade. Granted it didn't look great until TP got canned and Alvin took over which unleashed J-Rich. Dudley was that scrapper off the bench-type player we could've used in SSOL's prime.

Beat these **** to the ground. The 2013-14 Clippers are a collection of unbelievably detestable players. **** 'em.

Danny Granger is apparently making his debut today. Hope he continues to play like he did in Indiana earlier this season!

I hope adding him in throws off their chemistry and helps us kick their a$$.

Whoa I didn't know LAC is starting Collison and CP3...this will be tough. Green and Dragic struggle against quick PGs.

I hope Goran isn't on Collison. Dragic has a better chance of guarding CP3 than Collison.

Ish should get good minutes today. He's got the speed and quickness to keep up with Ish.

Huge game for our playoff push, hoping Granger messes with their chemistry as they are on a nice little win streak right now

Len is starting today, apparently.

We desperately need Bledsoe back.
