SUNNNNNNNZ WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!!! NASHTY V BLAZERS

[Sunsss]

+3: TJ (keeps getting buckets)
+2: Bledsoe (hit basically 2 game-winners)
+1: Chandler (big rebounds, big screens)

I see you too, Alex.

+3 - Our Bigs - Chandler and Len finally took advantage of a cupcake matchup and dominated the paint. If we keep both of these guys next year they're going to eat up 25% of our cap space. They need to perform like this every night for the Suns to win.
+2 - Eric Beldsoe - Always great to see this guy show up with the right name on his jersey. Bled is obviously the captain of this team and took it at Lillard tonight.
+1 - TJ Warren - The OG peskyboy put on another excellent offensive display.

I'm also giving a cactus to our team defense. It's too early in the season to know what's going wrong, but between Booker,Knight, and Warren we have 3 of our young guys who don't seem particularly skilled on that end of the floor. Maybe it's just the defensive concepts? Youth? Who knows, but the Suns aren't going to make the playoffs until those three guys figure it out.

Not sure I agree with your assessment of Warren's defense. I guess I need to watch each game 3 times.

+3 Warren - the best Sun so far
+2 Len - finally signs of life
+1 Chandler - rock solid

[batsmasher]

How freakin awesome is it that Tyson isn't a 34 year old skeleton?

Reminding me a bit of old man JO schooling kids in the 12'-13' Beas season.

[MrVince]

3 - TJ - balling
2 - Bled - for his game winner alone
1 - Len - best game this season

[Jarlaxle0204]

+3 Warren: His intensity and defense has been the best surprise so far this season. I'm honestly impressed and he looks like our best player currently.
+2 Bledsoe: He didn't have a fantastic offensive game until the 4th and OT but played pretty good defense on Lillard and really came alive at the end. He started looking like he did last year at the end there. So clutch.
+1 Len: Great game by Len. Good defensive. Good passing. Good rebounding and actually finished some and 1's. If it wasn't for Bledsoe's and I probably would have ranked him higher.

+3 Bledsoe (sp?)

Watched the WS more so I won't vote for the Leanders.

Warren has played very good defense since preseason.

Yeah, he has played good basketball. He is ealthy and he dominates the boards.
He is not a rim protector anymore, he does not alter many shots at the rim...but other that that he is really good C.

Hopefully he plays at least 70 games this season, we need him.

I agree. I'm not sure where this false narrative came from that TJ is playing bad D. I watch each Suns game twice. First game I watch like normal. Second game I just watch TJ. I have seen TJ play for a VERY LONG time. Like preteen. I challenge anyone to watch last nights game and say that his D was not exceptional. The overtime foul on Harkless sucked but that's it. Period.

Actually I came on here to say exactly that, that Warren hasn't only been scoring, but his defense has looked good. Even Booker has been fighting more. Haven't noticed much from Knight. I have been very impressed with the defensive steps taken by the team as a whole. I'm not used to seeing decent D in a Suns uni.

+3 Warren, for being the rock we built the win on
+2 Len for sparking us
+1 for Bledsoe for great D and the two shots to seal the win for us.

[NTB]

+3 Bledsoe: He **** wanted this game.
+2 Warren: Beast.
+1 Len: Finally a good game. Just focusing on simple things. Defense, rebound, attack to the rim.

[Damkac]

+3 Warren
+2 Bled
+1 Len (finally!)

Final.

Who would have guessed before the season? After 5 games, TJ Warren overall in first place, followed by Ulis and Chandler. And then Booker in bottom three for the Cactus voting.
