Suns @ Hornets game thread 3-10-18

[Hoop Head]

Suns starters, Elfrid Payton, Troy Daniels, Shaq Harrison, Dragan Bender, and Tyson Chandler.

Starting Harrison is a tank move, I don't care how you try and spin it. He's on a 10 day contract. Dudley or Reed would make more sense starting in place of Jackson/Warren. Got Daniels in place of Booker already.

Good Lord. Just sit Chandler too.

Epic tank battle...biggest since WWII.

Not really. Hornets are still fighting for a playoff spot. But maybe you are referring to the larger overall tank battle.

I only mean in the sense they are on a losing streak and lost to Brooklyn on Thursday.

Where are you guys? Haha Cowards. Hiding from the tanks!

 

[pokerface]

Suns are tanking so hard...f'n luv it.

If Bender can't find a way to be aggressive in this game than I just don't know what to say...

I was just thinking the same thing. If you can't take ten shots on the Suns team without Booker and Warren, you probably shouldn't be playing either.

Ulis looking good in this game. Maybe he needed sit out for a bit to get back to what he was doing at the end of last year.

End of 1st quarter:

Hornets 32 - Suns 25

It's good to see. I'm not sure why he was not getting playing time.

Careful, you might get run over by a tank. LOL

 

[Hoop Head]

Jackson says he thinks he'll be able to return on Tuesday. That's good news.

 

[Mainstreet]

A lot of missed layups.

Payton a nice pass to Chandler for the dunk.

If Bender and Chriss don't vastly improve next season I'm condemning them to Len status.

 

[SirStefan32]

Compared to Chriss and Bender, Alex Len is an all-star.

 

[Mainstreet]

Compared to Chriss and Bender, Alex Len is an all-star.

It's looking like that now but Len has three more seasons on them... for them to get to his level. LOL

Compared to Chriss and Bender, Alex Len is an all-star.

That's hilarious and disgusting.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Compared to Chriss and Bender, Alex Len is an all-star.

Hopefully they will be better than him by the time they have as much experience.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ulis is the man!

 

[pokerface]

Hopefully they will be better than him by the time they have as much experience.

What I'm learning is seeing "flashes" will only take you so far. By season three there better be some consistency or it's game over.

They get a pass...for now.

 

[Mainstreet]

That's hilarious and disgusting.

Unfortunately.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Hornets 59 - Suns 51

Harrison and Ulis with nice competition at PG.
