Nets @ Suns

[JS22]

I'm wondering what position Bledsoe can play.

PG for the Lakers once he's traded there. He wants to be there. LA needs another "star." Makes sense.

 

[Absolute Zero]

Len for the lead!

4-Finger assassin!

Damn the Nets can flat out shoot the ball!! 3 pointers are like free throws to them! Wow!!!

Suns back down by 7. Len is showing glimpses of his potential.

 

[Absolute Zero]

IT. Wow.

 

[AfroSuns]

Isiah is ridiculous...

 

[Mainstreet]

IT. Wow.

IT and Green bring some explosiveness to the Suns.

 

[ProdigalSun]

Isiah is ridiculous...

Yeah that

This can't be good for Bledsoe...he hasnt been on the court in a while. He really needs to pick up his game. Isiah is gradually taking his spot.

it's still really early, but even as a guy who believes in Bledsoe's talent, he might just not fit this club.

 

[ProdigalSun]

Green with some D...looks like this game is close to being put in the ole deep freeze

I really hope he stays. it's been a 3 guard line up against the "BIG Nets" for a good portion of the 4th. So the system can work if they run and excute. I mean points in the paint is pretty much equal

Nice game. Good turn around from the crappy first quarter.

Hard to understand why a near-Max player doesn't play in crunch time... Worse, every other player in the bench was standing during the last 7 mins of the game - except Bledsoe... He was the only guy who stayed seated on the bench...
23 mins, 11 points and 3 assists...
This just doesn't smell right to me...

Whatever the Suns do they need to keep Gerald Green. He has turned into a special player.

Great win by the Suns winning 112-104. This Suns team looked dead in the water in the first half.

That is what irks me the most about him. He must feel like he has a lot to prove and is frustrated, but at least be happy for the guys that are getting the team the wins and yours will come with time because he is talented.

Green is such a frustrating player in a good and bad way.

Our entire team has incredibly low basketball IQ. It's amazing that we won this game and that we're 5-3.

I haven't seen ever seen a Suns team with worse clock managment skills than the Suns. Hornacek nearly came on to the court to tell at them telling them to slow the **** down.

 

[SirStefan32]

Holy crap, I cannot believe they won this one. IT and Green are just amazing. Very nice, solid, consistent game from Goran too. Tucker played great D, and our big men did a very good job in the second half.

I think he'd be happy in LA. I am not sure what the Lakers have that Phoenix is interested in.

Outside of Randall they don't have anything really. Hill, Randle, removing protection from their pick and throwing in another might be a good trade for the Suns. I think they could get more elsewhere. Ideally they could find a 3 team deal sending Bledsoe to Cleveland, Kyrie elsewhere, and something positive from whatever team would take Kyrie. The Cav's picks don't have much value but a 3 way with LA might work with the proposed players and maybe a Cleveland pick going to LA with Kyrie to replace the extra one the Lakers would give up.


I'm not advocating that trade this early in the year, or any trade. I think the earliest the Suns should look at making moves is after December 15th when players who signed this offseason are available and that's about a month and a half into the season. A lot of teams will have a better idea where they stand at that point.

 

[sunsfan88]

This team is ridiculously inconsistent. Hornacek needs to quit smiling and lit into this team about discipline and consistency.

This team is playing FAR different than last year even though only few changes were made. There's some selfish dudes on this team this season. If you don't see this yet, you'll see it in games against better teams.

Hill, Randle, removing protection from their pick and throwing in another might be a good trade for the Suns.

That would be absurdly lopsided in favor of the Suns. Hill and a second-round pick is the highest the Lakers might go.

That's also the earliest Bledsoe can be traded, I think -- or close to then, anyway.
