This win might save Jeff a couple more games. Do you guys notice how we play so much better with Tucker on the bench? I think Jeff knows that now. Booker is a straight baller man.

Mirza!!!!! Offensive foul but oh well!!! Clutch!!!

Low minutes for Tucker and Kieff
High minutes for Warren and Booker
and a W.

I can call it a special day in the office.

After watching it back Mirza had an incredible over the back no call on Rose hahaha. Sucks to suck I guess.

I think it is clear that the Leuer/Mirza combo, aka Leuza, should be our PF solution from here on. 32 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks combined!

I think that would be the best bet. Start him, and still use Warren as a sixth man....you still keep one of our guards in at all times, and with Telly, Leuer and Len, and if Chandler ever gets healthy, that's a nice rotation.

Also nice that Price didn't see minutes. I wish Booker would have been in down the stretch more on this road trip in crunch time, but it seems like Hornacek finally found a good rotation, and they let Leuer have the last shot, since Bled and Knight have struggled in crunch time, and Booker is just money.

Outscored them by 18 in the 4th, heavy minutes for Booker. Len actually fouled out, but look two posts above this post you made to see the game winner...a crazy rebound and put back for Telly.

He was -12 tonight. We play better without him and Kieff this year.

I'd be down for Booker at 3 to start. I love his decision making on the floor, he makes the right passes, rarely forces shots, can put it on the floor and his defensive flaws are hidden well by Len/Chandler.

Still pumped about this win!

I'm still amazed how our softy player carried us in the 4Q.
That 3 by Booker was amazing too (I think now some people are really trying to close down on him but he nailed it anyways)
Bledsoe did great too with 2 amazing steals and avoiding the chase down block by Rose.

Maybe this was a wake up call. Even Kieff was cheering on the bench.
This is a really young team, they'll understand what it takes to win those kind of games.
Our vet presence is sidelined for long time and Tucker isnt inspiring anyone after that miracle game against Toronto.
It's tough to learn the ropes by himself but right now it's the only way to do it.
Go Suns!

The team doesn't quit which I love. They seem to play better from behind. Maybe it's a pressure thing and they're just looser when they don't have a lead to lose. Good win. Proud of these guys. Even with the losses this team is so much easier to cheer for than last year's team.

Booker's rapid development is simply awesome; he's quickly becoming my favorite Suns rookie since Amare.

Wow Mirza saved Horny's job. His regime would last a few more games thanks to Mirza.
