Game 37: Phoenix Suns (12-24) @ Los Angeles Lakers (7-27)

Seriously, I don't see Keef on the bench. Trade ready to rock n roll? Also, have any of you seen $arvers comments about millennials? Smart move alienating your players and also those who buy tickets in one interview. Complete moron lol.

Archie does bring a ton of energy to the team. I wish he could take the next step skill wise

He's chillaxing in Philly taking great pleasure watching the dumpster fire that is this team implode.

[RaisingArizona]

We're shooting 23%.

Is Knight as good as Lou Williams?

[Saberestar]

I think it probably most has to do with, since Knight takes so many shots, as should Booker, that he needs to be in there when they all sit. If they all sit at the same time, this team is truly terrible when going to the bench.

I still expect him to get a ton of minutes. It's just more of optimizing players WHEN they play. If Knight doesn't become a pure passing guy, he marginalizes both Booker and Tucker. Maybe Booker gets less marginalized if he is the only one in there with Knight, and when either of the other 2 sits, the other two are in there. If you just have Knight/Booker, Booker/Warren, or Knight/Warren in there at all times that means we always have scoring punch in the lineup and each still gets a minimum of 32 minutes, but they could all play together some too, so they should each eventually get more than that.

But if Knight starts to pass more instead of overdribble, they should all start.

It also helps if we start out slow, we can inject Warren for some instant offense.

Instant offense? Our team is TERRIBLE, we probably are losing by 15 points when Warren sees the court. We can NOT have that luxury like contenders who doesn't put all their best players starting the game ( like Ginobili or Terry years ago).

This is more simple....Hornacek tries all the starting lineups and see if they win a game. Just that. He doesn't even make analysis anymore. It is embarrassing.

No, he looks at which lineups work best and studies the numbers and obviously the last one didn't work well. If your bench is going to get destroyed it doesn't help other. It's not that I don't want Warren to start, it's that I can understand why he doesn't.

What I know is that he doesn't know how to motivate players....the players don't want to play for him.

Archie could MAYBE become a Corey Brewer/KJ McDaniels kinda player in the right situation

[bwgood77]

I was going to make a joke about being on pace for 40 after the first quarter, but we are still on that pace.

[RaisingArizona]

lol, Tyson.

[grumpysaddle]

This is just **** funny now.

[Calvin Klein]

I don't see many people considering the third option: Neither the coach nor the players are good.


ouch, Chandler...

[SunsRback4Good]

I'll be happy if we score over 77 points tonight but its not looking good.

[kennydorglas]

oh boy
there's some serious tanking happening right now
we want this #1 pick, bitches

[RaisingArizona]

It feels like we've thrown in the towel. I know we're bad but the effort is just poor lately.

[alldayeveryday]

We have more turnovers then buckets.

[saintEscaton]

If we only started up the tank earlier. We would be the uncatchable frontrunners and not behind the eight ball to make up ground. Those 12 wins will get in our way

[kennydorglas]

Nice job, Lieutenant Chandler.
Protect our tank.

[RaisingArizona]

Wow, Chandler. Just sit down.

[SunsRback4Good]

Chandler lets Hornacek know before pregame that he's 100% on the tanking.
