John Salmons is a good basketball player. I really wish we had gotten him instead of Banks. I still have no idea what he was thinking by turning us down for the Toronto offer (although he was smart to not take the Toronto offer). Still, if I had to choose between the Suns and Kings, I'd be on the Suns.

WOW 14 in a row!

WTG Suns. :thumbup:

I only saw the second half but this team is very impressive with 7 players in double figures.

I would love to see coach mix in some other players just not more than one at a time. Bringing in Banks and Rose together killed our momentum against Miami.
Still it hard to argue playing time when you have won 14 in a row. As long as he remembers the Suns are playing for June not December and January.

I'd love to see Jumaine or Jalen get some time, but maybe D'Antoni is getting him in the rotation because Jones looks much better shooting with the leather ball in practice and that's going to be back soon. His D is also much better than Rose's. Hopefully he starts shooting better because we need to find an 8th man.

I think this is spot on.
EJ mentioned Jr. would be helped the most by the old ball. The new ball tends to bounce out where the old ball kicks down into the basket.

I think Jones is a much better defensive player than Rose and probably runs better. I think his shot will come around. He was brought here to space the floor for Amare and I think he can still do that.

toronto, at denver (w/o anthony/smith), wash, port.

Unless we screw up, this is going to 18, with a big showdown in dallas. Man, and people were panicing at 5-1 saying we may not win 50.

Funny; I don't remember starting out 5-1.
