The Suns are playing at the league's fastest pace (104.4 possessions per game) with the Nets ranking second (103.6 per game) under new coach Kenny Atkinson, a former Atlanta assistant, after ranking 21st for pace last season.
“Our pace can get better,” Suns coach Earl Watson said. “We have bigs who can run the court. If you can have big involved running the court and finishing, I think it would take our pace to another level. We have young bigs who are learning the NBA game and how to be effective. Eventually, they’ll figure out the flow of the fastbreak. We have bigs who can run as fast as guards, which is a gift and a positive for us. We have to wait for them to develop in that area.”* Suns center Tyson Chandler remains not with the team following his mother’s passing on Tuesday.Watson said Booker still has been bothered by the turf toe that sidelined him for a game on Oct. 31. He went three for nine from the field for 11 points, all in the second half, on Wednesday against Detroit.
“The toe injury lingers,” Watson said. “He never makes excuses.”“We love playing with Eastern Conference teams,” Watson said. “They are more physical in the post. Their bigs are physical and we have a physical, aggressive team. A-Len held his own pretty well and did an amazing job. What I like most about A-Len is he capitalized on the small things, the X-factor things. Deflections, attacking the basket, blocks, rebounds, boxing out, just controlling and dominating the paint.”
