It would have been nice to catch them before they started showing a little life but they're still shorthanded. Hopefully we'll take advantage of them, whether Jrue is out or not.

Let's go suns hope Brandon knight has another great shooting night and bledsoe plays well
Show some fire tonight morris

Morris on Davis. Wow,think I'll watch the Cardinals.
Go Suns

If Morris plays 25+ minutes Suns lose.

This is not saying much about the Suns starting PF. I wish I could disagree. However, I keep hoping he plays up to his ability.

I hope he plays better too. Right now they're better without him.

This is true.

 

[devilalum]

This is true.

Even when he was playing at his best last year he never totally bought into the team concept they're having so much success right now. Unless it was passing to Marcus.

I guess we will have to wait it out until something happens.

On another topic, I can't understand why the home team would not choose to wear white at home. IMO, it looks so much better.

 

[devilalum]

Agreed

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns are going early for shooting with Booker and Mirza.

Booker and Teletovic looking good off the bench. Markieff played some good defense on Anthony Davis on a recent shot attempt.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ryan Anderson is a one man demolition team. His shooting is killing the Suns.

Except Anderson lit up Teletovic.

I think Ryan Anderson can light up anyone tonight.

I wish Hornacek had gone back to Booker. He looked good.

 

[devilalum]

I think Ryan Anderson can light up anyone tonight.

He only scored about 3 points after Tucker came in and started guarding him

 

[devilalum]

Morris -8. The Suns were down about 12 when he came out.

 

[Mainstreet]

Brandon Knight needs to get going. He was 0-8 in the first half. Bledsoe played well.

Warren was 3-3 from 3 point range. Nice to see him hit that shot.

 

[Mainstreet]

I wonder if the Suns miss Ish Smith. He was out there to be had.

 

[95pro]

Imagine Gordon as our "cornerstone" player

 

[devilalum]

Pelicans putting Suns in the bonus 90 seconds into the second quarter was the biggest factor.

 

[devilalum]

Imagine Gordon as our "cornerstone" player

+1

Is Booker always this inept from 10-15 ft?

Is Booker always this inept from 10-15 ft?

No. I think he just thought about the shot too much.
