Not sure if it sounded like it on TV but the crowd got loud in the 4th

It's really making me wonder if he is just 10x more confident when he starts as opposed to coming off bench. I'd like to see a statistical breakdown.

He's pretty much the same in both roles

starter 8.9/8.2/1ast/1.3blk 44% 73% ft in 25min (94 games)
bench 4.3/4.2/0.3ast/0.67blk 46% 70% ft in 13min (103 games)

Finally some solid defense. 36% opponent shooting.

Third win of the season...if we win the next one it would be a solid 4W-6L in the first ten games of the season.

Never sounds loud on tv when we play at home. Glad to know it's just the tv or something.

I must say that Eric Bledsoe's game has improved. I hope he keeps it up

The Pistons are a horrible team though, are they suppose to be a playoff team??

Without actually knowing what I'm talking about, I just figured it's the normal SVG progression (plus the loss of Reggie). Good coach but I've always thought he belongs in college, not the pros. He's like Skiles only worse, players can only take so much of that kind of micro-management and that kind of intensity. It just looks to me like he's already worn a bit thin on Drummond.

I think so. They are missing his second best player in Reggie Jackson, so they are going to improve when he returns.

Yeah Reggie was there offensive flow. I think they make the playoffs this year. Drummond isn't a go-to guy on offense though. They might need some firepower. (Knight for Leuer).

I saw them picked as high as a 4 seed by a major source. Can't remember who.

They are one fan base that kind of has a soft spot for Knight. At least some of the fans. Probably because they drafted him and many thought they gave up on him too early.

Knight's best game of the season. Bender and Chriss both play. Bledsoe shows star potential. Suns win the game.

Can't ask for anything more.

Fun game
Rookies didn't play well, chriss fumbled passes and bender needs to get stronger.
Marcus was booed all night but he liked it.

He's a good coach... And Drummond would be shipped out if he presents himself as an issue since SVG is not just head coach but part of the front office management.... He's a the top dog below the ownership.

Thought it was a boring game. The rookies didn't play very well. Eric Bledsoe looked good tonight. I wish he would play with that aggressiveness through the whole game.

Warren had a bad game but still had 18pts. Len played well, made some lucky shots but overall played good. I just don't understand why he can't play like that every game or at least somewhat.

I saw Marcus Morris smiling at someone in the crowd while shooting free throws which made me laugh. I wonder what they said. Lol
