Yup played with so much heart, im on the tank mobile but they deserved this one tonight for sure. This is the kind of win the young players need to develop.

More exciting than any win we have had this season, we seriously need to invest in these young players and I don't care what the front office says about Knight being only 23. He is who he is at this point and I don't see him improving as a playmaker

Very Very Very Very happy for Archie, you never know, it could be the beginning of something big. Minny won too, so nothing wrong with winning.

This is the great thing about playing young players, you can't lose.

You either get a high pick or they develop enough to win.

Len and Chandler combined for 29/39/10 assists! I hope this has uncovered a new dimension for this team.

My biggest gripe about Booker is his defense... Just isnt physically gifted to defend athletes. But his offense will offset his defense.

I hope team defense improves to hide Bookers weakness... Its like Curry. One on one defense is his weakness but as a lane defender and team defender surrounded by smart defenders allow him to defend the lanes and zones better.



Lets see what he looks like at 24 or 25 years of age.

22 assist as a team. Great stat.
Chandler showing his leadership. Maybe with Knight and Bledsoe injured Chandler will emerge as the voice and heart of the team.

I hope that game opens up the Archie Goodwin show. I haven't been this excited for him since his rookie year.

Goodwin watch thread? Youngin' watch?

Seriously... What a game. Between Chandler record watch, Seeing PJ actually hit some hoops, and Goodwin make a name for himself notnjust with points, but with great effort, passion and heart. 2 chase down blocks!!!??!!

Beyond all of it however is the fact this team played together tonight, and dare I say showed great chemistry. It was great to see. Great game.

I've been waiting and waiting for the Len/Chandler combo all season. I think it was mostly both guys have been injured on and off, but I enjoy having a twin tower presence.
Oh and this is with Len playing with one good hand. 8-)

It's funny, I was just debating people today about lack of assists for our team and my take was that having shoot first point guards, and more than one or two of them isn't going to help with assists, but then when all those guys are out, and Hornacek has a nice group to play with, we have assists.
