Thanks, Ryu. I'm likely to be relegated to watching highlights through the season, so any highlights or URLs to good highlight reels will be most appreciated! :D

I live in San Diego. WTF.


Dunno about the full game but here you are 5 min highlights:

Man, I don't know what the heck Bledsoe was doing this offseason, but he looks so freaking good. I loved that post move by Kieff as well. Very excited for this season!

Yes this is exactly how I feel. Suns preseason ball is like that first gasp of air you get after holding your breath underwater for a long time.

It's from a private tracker, so it's not really just publicly out there. It might be now that a day has gone by though. Just google "Suns Flamengo torrent".

I did not miss having to listen to DRYSdale. She really needs to be let go from commentating. And time to give up the 'lesser brother' in Steve Albert.

Where the hell have you been? We haven't needed any puking gifs lately but nonetheless, I was surprised to see you missing for so long.

I'm good for more than puke.gifs!!!

I took the off-season off with the team. I lurked here and there, but I've been busy with work and my band. I'll be around more now that the season is around the corner.

Went to the game last night. Here are my thoughts:

Bledsoe looks to be in great condition and he has bulked up some. It showed in his play

Goran looked tired....hopefully they will rest him through more of the pre-season.

Keef and Mook looked good and steady, nothing amazing, but nothing stupid either- very solid. Marcus with the start.

IT started slowly, but that crossover came on late with his shot and it was as good as advertised. His defense was better than advertised- though certainly not a world-stopper.

Archie looked hurried, but very good. When he made the mid-range shot, I couldn't believe it....

Miles did not look good. He was struggling against the strength of the Flamengo guys. I am not positive, but he looks like he has lost some weight, or at least trimmed down. He did not have timing or touch yet. Chemistry did not look as good with him on the court. As always he looked better with Bledsoe than Goran, though. I am however a big fan, and hope he will correct it. Needs to establish his position, get big, and show his hand while sealing his defender. He will kill it in the post if he can do that and perfect his baby hook he has been working on.

TJ Warren looks ready to play- his confidence looks very good. Size(strength/weight) could be an issue, but if his 3-ball has been coming on like he showed last night, he could earn minutes.

Zoki looked happy to be there and get minutes- drilled a nice three.

This depth will be crazy to deal with.
