Oh boy.
Mirza is taking (and hitting) some Steph shots right now.
He's on a roll.

He doesn't have bad form on his shot, but for whatever reason he doesn't hit it.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

I remember comments like "he sucks" when he was shooting like 36% (4/11 or something) after 3-4 games.

I wish it wasn't a one year deal. He's going to be expensive to keep.

Suns beat the Raptors, Raptors beat the Spurs. Therefore Suns > Spurs :D

Yeah, because at that time he sucked. People's opinions change by how a player plays it's a common thing.

We are still having way too many turn overs. Bled with 3 at halftime, and Knight with 2. A little more experience and they both will reduce their TO.

We actually scored well with 49, considering our guards didn't do much. This game will go down to the wire though.

Let's hope so.
Only Rockets players who didn't play tonight was Ariza and McDaniels, so maybe we're trading Kieff to Pelicans since they don't play today :D

I think Len's struggles with shooting the ball in live situations is pure mental.
He's rushing them and releasing without any touch.

But his arc is pretty bad, tho. Maybe Mirza could teach him something about it.

Chandler's been out something like 6 games with a "tight hamstring". Maybe he is being intentionally held out with Kieff as they are both being traded to Sacramento for DeMarcus Cousins. McD is a master at these things you know.

Leuer is feasting with these quick jab-steps.
He's so quick... one blink and he's already dunking on you.
We need to put him more in this situation. People respect his jumper, make them pay for it.

He missed some time during the camp. I never panicked like some people, knew he'd find his stroke.
