It's so great that Bledsoe is so good with that bank shot.

I love these end of game possessions where nobody touches the but Bledsoe. Such bad basketball but glad that shot went in!

Suns win! I was right on my 3 win prediction for 10 games twice! Though on second thought, when we take out the Warriors I will have been proved wrong.

Did that 3 just hit the over? If so I bet there are so many remotes being thrown right now

Don't know, but if people are betting over/unders on NBA games they are taking on a bad proposition unless they can find in betweens, though that is likely a losing proposition in the long run as well.

Has a rookie ever asked to be traded?

Most over/under lines closed at 208, so all the remotes are safe for now

How many complete Suns games have you watched in a row? I seem to remember you saying you've watched every minute of every game for a long period of time.

Don't remember the last time I missed a game. Maybe in 12/13 season. When I can't watch it live (rarely happens) as I'm 10 hours ahead of AZ, I watch it the next day.

No.

Because each needs the ball in their hands a lot to have a big night.


Even Warriors only have 2 ball handlers / play makers on the court most nights.
But they are an anomaly since the ball always moves.

The suns... The guards tend to hold on to the ball longer than your usual play maker.

Good news:
We finally won a game!

Bad news:
It was ugly

Worse news:
We are not very good.

Hope:
As mentioned above, Booker, Bledsoe, TJ, and Knight have yet to all play good games at the same damn time. We'd actually be 500 right now if 2 of the 4 were available AND if 2 of the 4 played well each game.

Suns win :) I think the key to our win was the refs allowing us to play and not calling many fouls. Hardaway JR has game.. still shocked the Knicks let him go. I like his game off the bench.

1. How much do you see that next contract being?
2. Who do you see that we can attain for that money and is better?

And there's nothing like being 500. Two years ago at 39-43 was so fun. Thank God that late lotto pick turned into Booker. We could have been worse and gotten a higher pick and the rumor at the time was that McD really wanted WCS. A higher pick would have probably netted us him instead of Booker which would have gotten him canned by now. McD probably owes Booker his job, even though Booker hasn't been playing that well.
