and this is my complain with the "system" or lack of.... Suns have nothing when the outside shot is off.... they dont have plays that frees up other players in the paint or lanes to get by the defense.

This is why TJ isn't #2. You have to be consistent and he disappears.

Alex Len -18 in 8 minutes ... don't want to see him on the court in the second half. Monroe please.

Bender needs time but he is showing so much more this year than as a rookie

We play better on B2B than 2+ days off.

We clearly need a better offense. And is it too hard to set multiple screens to free up Booker?

Do we need a center or point guard more?

We need a defensive guard who can hit the three who will be happy letting Booker handle the ball

Tough question to answer. I think we need both equally since we don’t have a dominant power forward. I’d like to see Reed alongside Booker a few times.

Great to see the 92-93 team. Was wondering if KJ would ever be there, and awesome that they got Richard Dumas there. Of course they ask Charles who it was best to see and he mentioned some guys he sees often and you're waiting to hear you he says, and he says it never was about him, and then he just talks about himself for the rest of the time.

Can Barkley get a group together to buy us?

A PG is 10x more important to this team.

Damn, we are shooting about as well as a D'Antoni team but a D'Antoni team is out rebounding us. Not what I'd expect. Rebounding has been one of our strengths.
