+3 TJ Warren
+2 Chandler
+1 Dudley

TJ is such a relief. He's carrying us with volume and efficiency, defending REALLY hard. I love him
Chandler cant protect the rim anymore, but he gives such a tenacious help for our D.
Dudley is completely the opposite of Knight. He just makes the right play 90% of the time. It's hard to hate him.

-1 Watson
-2 Tucker
-3 Knight

It's becoming really hard to cheer for Knight anymore. He just kills 90% of his plays but apparently he never leaves the court tho
Tucker is completely out of his game.
Watson is killing the team flow with some terrible lineups, never put Knight on check, kinda call out our vets but keep playing them.
It's hard to understand all this crap.

+3 Warren - Stepped up again. 2 games in a row.
+2 Chandler - 18 rebounds + DEFENSE in 28 minutes!! Why cant you be 10 years younger?!?!?
+1 Beldsoe - 0 Turnovers people! 21/6/5

-3 Knight - Bad decisions. Every game, Bad decisions. Bad.
-2 Booker - WTF happened?? 2 garbage games in a row!
-1 Len - Needs to grow some balls where his vagina is.

+3 for Warren - 2-5 on 3PT is solid but 2 of the 3's he missed were wide open. I think Warren will eventually get more comfortable with the 3-ball and he'll absolutely be unstoppable. Right now he's legit though, and is capable of putting up similar numbers all year long.
+2 for Chandler - Great game by Chandler. Over the hill Chandler is still playing better than Len.
+1 for Bledsoe - Solid stats, and played very well. I thought he'd have more rust than he's shown but so far he's been playing above par.

-3 for Knight - Okay so he actually netted the best plus/minus for our team, but I think it would have been even better if maybe he didn't come silly turnovers and shoot very low percentage shots. I would love to see him play on the Spurs because I think coach Pop would teach him how to play efficient basketball.
-2 for our crowd - I hate Phoenix. Fair-weather fans and bandwagoners go to die.
-1 for Len - Made some good plays following up by dumb plays. Again, put him with Popavich and he'd be an above average player. Don't know why he can't just put it all together.

+3 TJ
+2 Bledsoe
+1 Bender - 18 year old rookie guarding Kevin Durant and doing a pretty good job, 3 minutes be damned.

And I will abstain from voting for the Cactus.

3. Bled: No turnovers. Solid production. Decent defense.
2. Chandler: Keeps playing above expectation and keeping the center locked up. Good early.
1. TJ: Best offensive player tonight. Pretty woeful defensively.

-3: Knight: I actually think this was his worst game of the 3. I don't mind the shots he takes.... if he makes them, which I believe he can. Just too many bricks and a couple of bad plays.
-2: Devin Bricker: nuff said.
-1: Len: Came to life late, but did a bit of damage early with his clunks.

+3 Chandler. Good activity, great on the boards, helping on D
+2 Bledsoe. Wasnt flashy but was really pretty steady all game and made some things happen when we got bogged down. 0 TOs too.
+1 Warren. Great scoring again. Was active on defense and got some tips in the 1st half but had some trouble on D.

-3 Knight. I actually dont think he or anyone else played terribly, but he was not very effective.
-2 Booker. Same story. I liked his shot selection better today but when you miss just about all of them its not good.
-1 Chriss. I know everyone loves that hes "not afraid" but he's way too easily going into 'tough guy' mode at the slightest provocation.

+3 TJ Warren: Best player on offense, he needs to keep working on the 3 ball but he just knows how to score other ways. He was active on defense, but KD definitely was too much for him, as he is for pretty much anyone. We need to look into featuring him more on offense.
+2 Eric Bledsoe: Really good game by him, always in control and made the simple, smart play most of the time. He needs to get those free throws falling though, he can do a lot of damage from there with how good he is at getting into the lane and drawing fouls.
+1 Tyson Chandler: Solid on the boards and doing the little things on defense.

-1 Earl Watson: I wasn't a fan of some of the rotations we had going. I recall having a lineup of Bledsoe, Barbosa, Knight, Booker, and Len towards the end of the game and just don't see any reason to do that. I still want to see more motion in our offense too, I like the pace we play with but at times it's a lot of standing around waiting for nothing. I do like the defensive intensity he's helped bring out though.
-2 Devin Booker: He's in a bit of a funk right now, his shot just hasn't been falling so far this year. He needs to find ways to get into a rhythm like attacking the basket and getting to the line, and he has to contribute in more ways than just scoring. I'm sure he'll shoot himself out of this slump though.
-3 Brandon Knight: Not a terrible game, but he just isn't contributing like you'd expect as sixth man. Bledsoe is the only guard that's really been playing well though, so I expect Knight and Booker to start settling in soon too.
