Gordon and Allen hitting shots really opens up the game for the Suns.

Bogdanovic didn't want to come play for the Suns. **** him.

Is that so? We had his rights and were a far better place than SAC at that point. I don't recall hearing anything about an unwillingness to come here.

Almost positive I remember him not wanting to leave Euroleague if it meant playing for the Suns.

I feel like he wanted to come here when he first got drafted. I remember he was at the Dbacks game. Then we drafted Booker.

Looking more into it, I think the Suns wanted him to stay in the euroleague for 2 seasons after they drafted him to not count against the cap, then after those two seasons, he didn't want to come play for the Suns (which i guess i don't really blame him, Sarver was terrible and did his best to sour relationships). So, I guess I remembered wrong.

Another night of no real bench play. We're going to be so screwed come playoff time. The continued supply of minutes to Eubanks is especially concerning.

A hot start to the 4th quarter!?!?!

I wish Beal was more aggressive.

The IT effect

The bench is crushing it tonight. Hopefully we can get a Little Young Thomas in the game. Roddy and Wainwright too.

Suns role players playing a lot more free with Beal and Nurk and not feeling the need to defer to the Big 3 every possession. They need to be this aggressive when the other two are on the court as well.

Beal/Gordon/Royce/Bol/Nurk

New death line up?

Less about points and more about players getting time on the floor.

It really is something when you learn the names of officials due to how bad they are.

Bench is playing great. The guys producing are getting good minutes. Books only at 25min played exactly because RON and EG have been hot. Even Eubanks is having one of his good games

Not sure what you're after

Tony is usually one of the best in the league but that was absolutely egregious.

I'm after getting some of the other guys, namely Young and Thomas, some run. Even Little wouldn't be bad. Vogel just has no desire to go more than four deep unless he absolutely must.
