I'll change the lineup pending any trades before our next game. Every game is like a must win now and we can't screw around or we'll be sitting in 10th seed pretty soon. Let's get back to Phoenix basketball and start sharing the ball because greed will not work. Horny needs to play the players that want to be on the court and can produce. Its winning time now with just 30 games remaining Id like to see what kind of Suns team will arrive these next 30 games, a selfish or a hungry one that desperately tries to put teams away so we don't lose more games with a buzzer beater.

i think paul coro said that Len was fully healed the game against the rockets but they decided to let him skip that to be safe. That means he should be able play this game

I'm hoping that you end up changing the first reserve mentioned and maybe one of the forwards (with the current starter going to the bench not being traded away).

They're actually a dangerous team now that they're all healthy.

They definitely have a promising young core who have proven themselves as NBA worthy on the court. Same cant be said for us

:SIGH: Unfortunately, this is the state of our board. Would rather tank than win.

Win what? More meaningless games so we can edge out NOLA and claim the 9th spot in the west so that we can once again say "well at least we were on the outside looking in " ? OKC will inevitably leapfrog us its not an if but rather when

Unfortunately I think our starting lineup is going to look a bit different come Friday

Well, guess it's time:

Moochthemonkey · Post #15 » by **Moochthemonkey** » Fri Feb 20, 2015 2:16 am

Norris Cole was traded for John Salmons who is expected to be waived. The lineups is:

Bledsoe/No one (WTF?)
Knight/Green/Goodwin/Bullock/Thornton (WTF?)
Tucker/Morris/Granger/Warren (WTF?)
Morris/Hamilton
Len/Wright

If not trading our most valuable player was enough, we decide to send away our most valuable pick, trying to get away from small ball yet acquire another (twice as expensive) shooting point guard, trade away our only real PG (and waive the one we acquired), fantastic!! I've been optimistic with the Suns all this year, but after today, I'm convinced McDungoofed doesn't know what he is doing

Will the new guys be there or are we running with a 9-man roster?

nevetsov · Post #18 » by **nevetsov** » Fri Feb 20, 2015 6:50 am

I would think it's unlikely the new guys are available for this one. I'd expect to see:

Bledsoe (40), Goodwin (8)
Green (35), Bullock
Tucker (36), Warren (9)
Markieff (36), Marcus (32)
Len (20), Wright (24)
