2pts in the second half...

That's alright. He played well. The refs got into his head in the 4th so he got a tech and then another quick foul and got out of rhythmn.

Overall great night for him though.

Let this guy and his lousy ass come off the damn bench.

Yet another reason Booker should protect his financial interests and request a trade. This is the Power Forward the Suns have designated to start next to Booker. Chriss is a joke as a starting PF.

Booker should be trying harder in all the games..not requesting trades. Plus Chriss is like his best buddy outside of Ulis.

Lol. Okay.

this is from 9+ years of monitoring your in game posts......really? The NBA is out to destroy PHX? Wake TFU! Dude

An NBA game will always be laced with bad calls..see: speed of play and more ...it's impossible to call a perfect game. No one is against YOU conspiracy Grumpy!!! Roll with the fact they..."yes they" Are trying to do their best to make it an even steven contest.

Lol. Now people are wanting our players to request trades. Fun time to be a Suns' fan.

Lol. Okay. I bet you also believe that there was no ref scandal in the 2007 series (even though an FBI probe showed there was and Donaghy admitted to it himself), but I'm the one that needs help.

Thank you ...xactly-

I, for one, think that Booker knows he’s in for the long haul. Dude is really young, but has a good head on his shoulders. It is his best interest to stay in PHX, lift us up from being the laughing stock of the league. He already said he likes to stay here for a long time cause we treated him damn well from Day 1, he wants to be on par with Barkley, Nash, and be one of the Suns greats.

And lol of course everyone’s upset, but they just need to gather themselves, try harder and play better tomorrow.

Is this high school where we want to play with our best friends? Maybe Booker can have a sleep over with Chriss if mom says ok. "Hey mom", says Booker, "can my friend Chriss sleep over tonight and we can play video games and professional basketball games".

Grow up, this is a business. Who cares if one player is a friend of another player.

Yeah, I agree. I think he wants to be that guy who eventually leads us somewhere and knows it will take some time. He's hungry but he's also close to many of the guys. They're his teammates. He knows the fans love him too. He goes anywhere else he's not their best player...many places maybe not one of their 2 best and in some places 3 (GS 4). Unless he goes to another crap team.

This game was horrible. I very seldom talk about referees, it’s a difficult job but we don’t help at all. In this game the referees were poor and every close call went against the Suns. That exchange at the end of the 3rd where Booker was called for a charge, followed by a blocking foul at the other end, were 2 terrible calls. This gets in the collective head of a young team.

There is no movement in the Suns offense. That makes it easy to defend them – just stand next to your player. There is little passing. I saw nearly a dozen times where James and Ulis dribbled up the court and took a shot without anyone else touching the ball. There was another half a dozen times where Ulis or James just dribbled out the clock head down, going in circles, and then forcing up a shot. Way too much dribbling and way to many possessions where there were 0-1 pass.

The Suns had a pathetic 13 total assists. Booker had 5 assists in the game, and it could have been 10 if the others on the team could finish the play. In contrast, our "point guards" Ulis and James combined for 5 assists. And while it doesn’t count as an assist he made passes that led to scoring through a foul. He played exactly the way he is supposed to. When double-teamed, he passed the ball to an open player. The ball never returned to him. His shooting wasn’t great tonight, but he only took 10 shots and none.

I saw multiple other passes from our point guards that were at Len’s or Warren’s ankles and passes going to open players on the perimeter that forced the player to reach or bend to receive thereby taking the player out of his rhythm.

Rather than just bitch about things, I’ll offer my 2 cents. Change the starters and rotations. Starters going forward should be; Booker, Jackson, Warren, Chriss and Len.
