That Hornacek pic perfectly explains this season.

Well I hope there was a huge talk about shooting too often when one can not make a thing. We can't continue to have games where the person shooting the worst is also the one who shoots the most.

Man I hope we turn a corner in this game, and have less so-called fans rooting for us to lose. :crazy:

Looking forward to seeing Lance. I wonder what is wrong with him, and I wouldn't have minded going after him instead of Bledsoe during the summer, since he is a bit more traditional shooting guard with size and D. It seems that Charlotte just doesn't fit him, or the other way around, and he is in trade rmrs already.
IT+Green+Plum for Lance+ Biyombo? Or Bledsoe for Lance+Biyombo+pick? Although this latter doesn't solve the IT balldomination/unhappyness problem, which I'm getting really tired of quite frankly, along with the fact that both of our newly (re)signed "point guards" can't run an offense to save their lives, forcing our best playmaker to play off the ball.

Anybody going to this game ???

If Biyombo doesn't hit a 3 at the buzzer or something I'm hopeful for this one.

OK, let's just say I'm real tired of this 3 PG nonsense, especially with IT, and that neither IT nor Bled seem to be able to run an offense other than fastbreaks...

But I get the response...

Asking for Lance is like asking for Cancer

Having IT is like having a potentially cancerous mole, it looks like it can be bad, but it still not quite there,( i think he will get there soon though) Lance on the other hand is the real thing, he was awful in indianna's locker room, and not even 30 games in, Charlotte is trying to get rid of him. The warning signs are there, and they all say "STAY AWAY" :ouch:

Not a 100% sure about that. Indy is rumoured to trading for him to get him back. Charlotte is trying to get rid of him becouse he has not lived up to his contract, to say the least. But I haven't heard about problems with him in their locker... While we know that IT is b*tching about playing time, not starting, and has destroyed one of the better backcourts chemistry wise, plus hasn't lived up to his newly signed contract either. Yes, I see the warning signs, and I know he is a headcase, but I don't necessarily agree with you.

(*and sorry about hijacking the game thread, should have been in the 2drink minimum)

Go Suns,high time to get out of this L streak!!!

Game hasn't even started and thread has already derailed to "trade everyone, team sucks".

Good vibrations! Go Suns!

Dragic will be back and so will our winning ways.

If the Suns can limit Jefferson to 20/10, they will win... Or hope so anyways.
You don't want to be mention next 76ers and other bottom rung teams to have 7 game losing streaks.

I would put Plumlee against Big Al.

Big no to Stephenson.
