SSOL would actually decrease pressure on Bledsoe and Knight to create in the half court. Getting that ball down the court in a hurry means the passes are simpler.

We haven't seen this offense in ages. It's great to see it again. In fact, with our poor half court sets (we don't really have any half court sets), maybe we should do this more often.


I agree, I've thought they should be pushing the pace all year. Hornacek's plays are dead ends. The Suns have the roster for it, and then can switch to Chandler/Tucker/Price if the situation calls for it.


Also, missed FTs. SMH.

And that was the nail in the coffin. Oh well, didn't expect to win this one.

Good effort on a B2B. Horny was bold and it almost worked. Suns fandom intact.

No, all these FT misses and turnovers are Horny's fault.

Probably nervous as hell. He gets no minutes for how many games and then he's playing in fourth quarter crunch time.

Horny is a bad coach. It takes a blowout to play Warren big minutes, Ronnie plays too much, costly decision when he took Bledsoe out in the 3rd when he was heating up. You don't do that. Tucker just sucks..

Good lord, these free throws are embarrassing.

But maybe we learnt something about ourselves with these last 7 minutes : push the damn ball. We need to stop exposing ourselves in the half court set. We have the utility to do it with guys who can run the floor. In fact, our team has no stiffs. Get these young legs running.

Ronnie's played very well this year and deserves his minutes, Warren seems like he's hit the rookie wall a year late so I understand the decreased minutes there. I will agree with the general sentiment: I wouldn't point to this squad as evidence of a "well-coached team." However I don't see a clear alternative out there who would be an upgrade.

We're already tied for 1st in pace. It's not like we can play much faster.
