What kind of Suns will we see tonight?

Remember that like... 4 or 5 game period where the team was actually fun to watch this season? I barely do, it's like a faint memory.

I think he'll look ok. Playing against the same team could go for or against him. I think he'll be fine. Might even hit a 3.

Kelly Oubre leading the huddle to start. Gotta believe he'll be here next year, I think.

It's too bad we had to decide on Bender's option at the start of the season. Would have been nice to delay the decision like with Ulis. :wink:

Man, Booker with some bad turnovers the end of last game and to start this one. And aggressive Bender again. Crazy stuff.

I thought this. Maybe you cant alter the option deadlines on first round pick contracts?

Every time I see Bender plays you can tell that the talent is there but he just lacks confidence

What was that pass by Melton. Bender is going nuts.

Our defense is a bit all over the place. A lot of good rotations but still lacking in communication

I’m holding my excitement for Bender for the right time.

If Jackson and Bender figure out how to flip the switch it would make a world of difference for the Suns' future. The small glimpses are really nice, but it could go either way at this point for both of them.

Josh finally finishing better at the rim...not laying it off the backboard way to hard like before.

Nice sequence from our 3 wings on the court.
