Re: Suns @ magic
Love watching Len and Book upping their games like this. Developing some good chemistry and will be cornerstones for the next decade.
If we can land an alpha forward in the draft, that those 2 can act as a supporting cast for, then we'll be loaded. Couple in Bled as a defensive PG and a glue guy to round out the starting 5 and we're good to go.
We'd even have the cap to keep Knight and Chandler off the bench, rounded out by Goodwin, Teletovic/ Leuer and the Return of Warren.

Sucks that we're winning. That said, Len is still a beast. Can't believe so many declared him a bust when he's been a walking double double whenever he's gotten minutes and opportunity. He fouls too much, but when he manages to stay on the court he produces.

Re: Suns @ magic
Len has a harder time when they defend his shot and he needs to drive. He's been shooting well tonight

I need to say it every time I see him. Evan Fournier has one of the most punchable faces in the NBA.

Just curious. Why do you want to win tonight? You don't think rebuilding through the draft is a good idea?
Do you think it helps the young players when we lose? Nobody wants to lose. Losing every game gives us a better chance at winning the lottery.. I get it but it's more than that. If Len, and Booker are leading the team to victory I will take that every time. Let the lottery play out on its own. Just look at the 76ers..

Re: Suns @ magic
We can't win these games! We've got the easiest schedule of the bottom 4. Good possibility now of us finishing better than the Nets. Not good for the draft...

Re: Suns @ magic
You guys are mental. You take these small victories from time to time to keep the young guys confidence up. That helps their development.
We won't be going on any massive win streaks to end the season so the likelihood of us moving from the 3rd worst record is marginal. So just enjoy the ride!

Re: Suns @ magic
Watson subbing in defensive vets to close out the game and protect the lead. Smart move.

I wonder if you know what it's like to run a franchise. At this point losing is the key to future success. When the suns miss out on #2 odds because of one extra win, remember this.

Suns will likely finish 5th worst and miss out on a franchise player. What a shame. Almost had it.

Re: Suns @ magic
Trade out Bledsoe and Knight, build around Len and Booker like EJ said.
These guys won't get decent touches with ball dominant guards and the league is shying away from that style of ball.
