Bledsoe's quote on #76ers Noel foul: "They were telling me before if I came to the paint, they were going to do something dirty."

for a premeditated attack that was weak. at least alex len knows how to mix it up proper

What little b***ches. So they get mad at Bledsoe for basically saying they suck real bad....while they do actually suck real bad?

Instead of playing dirty, why don't they try and win games so people don't talk s***?

I hope Noel suffers a torn ACL and doesn't become a good player ever again. He deserves it for trying to take a dirty shot at someone for saying something.

Words don't hurt people, people hurt people.

Nothing wrong with what Noel did. If someone disrespects your team or says you have no heart your damn right they're gonna hit the floor.

Merica be so sensitive these days.

I'm with you on IT but you do realize that they played the 76ers correct?

It's not even a tiny accomplishment to beat them....

A win is a win. The Suns handed the Sixers their worst margin of defeat at home. I would say the Suns accomplished something the Bulls didn't (win by 3) or Orlando (win by 2).

Yeah, you have to be happy about taking care of business against Detroit and Boston and now Philly. It sucks when we blow games, but if we win a stretch on an eastern road trip it's huge. All teams have talent and could win any night, except Philly. Yes, they have a little talent, but their best players are kids with no vet leaders. Noel and MCW would be juniors in college and Wroten a sophomore and that is pretty much their team.

I think we can beat Indiana even on a b2b, but we can't take any games for granted. They are well coached and despite missing their entire 1-3 positions from last year will fight.

If we can finish this road trip with a 4-2 record (would require us going 1-1 over the next two games with the Pacers and Raptors), then we'd certainly have to call that a success. Even if we finish 3-3, that's still an accomplishment. Any time we can go .500 on the road, regardless of the competition, you have to see that as a good thing. If we can take care of business at home, which we haven't done so well so far being 4-3, but if we can improve on that just a smidgen, that should get us close to the 8th seed. I don't like that this is the 2nd in a B2B, then have to follow up with the Raptors two days later. But if we can eek out just one of those, you have to like that we would be 9-6. We'll need to take care of the following 4 games though, vs Den, @ Den, vs Orl, vs Pacers, because after that we have 3 road games--@ Dal, @ Hou, and @ LAC--oof!

I've lost lots of confidence in Plumlee. He came out of nowhere to put up some good numbers out of the gate last season, but he really has not played well since then. He played like crap the second half of last season. He played like crap in the summer league, and he is playing like crap now. Was the first half of last season a fluke?

Len has made some improvements, but he still has a way to go and as mentioned above, we cannot forget that he is injury prone.

Getting Channing Frye back on this team to replace Plumlee would solve so many problems. It gives us a stretch 5 and improves our interior defense. I think a lineup of Dragic/Bledsoe/Morris/Morris/Frye would really cause problems. That lineup is solid on defense and all 5 guys can hit the 3.

Of course the likelihood of us getting Frye back are slim to none. His contract is still tough to swallow and he seems to be doing OK in Orlando. I'd love to see us try to acquire a similar 4 or 5 if we can get some cheap enough.

I still think Plumlee can be good as his athleticism and work ethic is there. But you can tell his confidence is shot. We either need to give him more time against opposing teams second units or send him to the D-league so he can work on finishing around the basket and get his confidence back.
