Northern Arizona Suns 

Post#41 » by NuggetsWY » Thu Dec 7, 2017 8:04 pm

Excuse a post from a foreigner please. 8-) I was watching a Northern Arizona Suns game last week and they were destroying their opponent. My son-in-law came by and asked if the G-League team was better than the NBA team. I chuckled and said, "No but they look pretty good. It's just that their competition isn't the same as what their NBA team faces. :lol:

All that to say, for all the youth you have on your team, you've still got some nice looking players on your G-League team.

The interesting part for me is that Maine Red Claws is the affiliate of Boston Celtics. I don't want to see Brad Stevens to make Bennett a great player.

Yeah, this one's weird. He's only 23. I always believed in his talent. The main problems were always his inability to shoot the long ball and, probably more crucially, his unwillingness to do what the coaches told him to.

I wonder what's up! I'm not against giving him another shot. He'd do a better job defending opposing 1s than Tyler. But imagining him and JJ on the court together... man... ain't enough shooting in the world to spread the floor around those two.

In case you're wondering if his 3FG% has improved - he's shooting 30% in the G League. Same as it was in his brief stint in BKN last year. Better than the abysmal 20% he shot while a Sun, but he's still a leap away from being average.

I don't expect anything from him, but he probably can give us some depth with Canaan out for the next 10 days and Reed getting in basketball shape.

The team is deep even with the 3rd stringers this season - Okobo, Lecque, Harper. I want to see them all more often in blowout wins. :)

For Jalen specifically I have bigger hopes for the future.

If lecque would have went to college this year and shot decently well from 3 I'm pretty sure he would have been a 1st round pick. That signing might end up being a real steal for Jones.
