Suns @ Spurs 12-30-15

[sunsfan88]

I think a number of Suns players would play well for the Spurs. It's more about the coaching than the players IMO.

That too. The Spurs always bring in players with a certain unselfish mindset even if their not particularly that skilled so I'm not sure they would want many or any Suns players.

Suns' season worst for margin of defeat. Sixth consecutive loss. They're at OKC tomorrow.

In other news, Warriors would be a lottery team without Steph Curry.

Yea... given that the completely blew out the Mavs tonight without Curry, you're probably right...

the towel boy has to be prepping his resume as we speak because his job is probably next to go on our front office's accountability chart!

Lol this is exactly what I was going to post! I can't wait to see what game changing personnel moves Sarver has in the chamber after this embarrassment, fire the dancers and the water boys! #headswillroll

Didn't the Mavs blow out the Warriors tonight without Curry? I didn't watch it but the score I saw showed Mavs winning big.

JC that's quite an accusation your making there about Goodwin. What makes you think he's part of the Markieff Morris attitude stuff?

From everything that Hornacek and McD ever say about Goodwin, he's the ultimate pro who put in a ton of time in the gym during the off season and does what's asked of him during the season. I have never seen anything even close to resembling that Goodwin could be a problem child.

Also. Some who were there saw Archie laughing when Kieff threw the towel.

Lol so did you want Goodwin to curse out his teammate when he's asked about him publicly or something? Wouldn't you be here complaining what an ass Goodwin is for calling him out publicly instead of just spitting the usual PR stuff out there for the media?

So Goodwin says stuff like Kieff is a great teammate, not a bad player, is a positive guy and he's blamed for Kieff's problems while Hornacek takes every opportunity he can to say that Kieff works hard in practice, is a great teammate and that he's done everything asked of him and McD says stuff like Kieff is a good person, ultimate professional etc and yet Goodwin's the bad guy while Hornacek and McD get no blame? Hornacek and McD have publicly supported Kieff too...so maybe their the ones to blame too...

And oh yea Bledsoe echoed statements of support for Kieff this summer too

Get rid of Bledsoe too then?

Other than a rumor I heard about Goran I've not heard anything that suggested Marcus and Markieff were anything but great teammates on the court, in the locker room and away from the court.

But there's no secret that the twins took Archie under their wing and may well have influenced him into believing he was closer to ready than he really was and that might have raised some issues. But I have no idea if his limited playing time has anything to do with Markieff's situation.

You're mistaken. Mavs blew Warriors out

 

[slinslin]

23 minutes for Bryce Cotton
16 minutes for Archie Goodwin
13 minutes for Sonny Weems

Cotton

23 minutes for Bryce Cotton

Nice to see the young or new guys get minutes. I thought Bryce showed flashes despite also making some dumb plays, and he is quick. Already like him more than the other guys you mentioned.

It's also more about age and continuity and bbiq of players.

No, they wouldn't but there have been advanced stats showing the Klay Thompson is a net negative on the floor without Curry. I noticed Klay and Dray shot 4-13 tonight. When you don't have that one guy commanding attention from everyone, it makes your jobs quite a bit tougher on offense.

I think they are usually great teammates, but they lose control at officials and certainly off the court...I knew a guy who went to Kansas with them and he said they were bad news and protected there..he alluded to beating up women and stuff.

Again Weems before Goodwin. Plus Keef shoots an airball on his first heave.

 

[leclerc]

Can't buy a shot in the fourth. Puzzled why Booker doesn't get more minutes even in garbage time.

Whoops! A little too much vino on the eve of New Year's Eve!! [emoji106]

I was speculating why Goodwin might not be getting playing time for reasons other than just his play. Did I advocate getting rid of him anywhere?

25 minutes is enough to really develop some continuity. You have to reserve some time so that you can reward him for good play later.

 

[leclerc]

Some of us just want to see what he can do with consistent PT.

Exactly. But I'm certain Archie gets a DNP the next couple of games. Just trade him already. Don't waste his opportunity to make it with another team. A change of scenery might do him good.

Cotton is awful. I cringed every time he touched the ball.

 

[Ronin]

6 losses in a row. :-(

DISH only offered the Spurs broadcast so that's what I watched. Their announcing crew spoke highly of Cotton (from his time with the Austin Spurs) but I saw nothing particularly praiseworthy. But nobody in a Suns uniform looked all that good yesterday so maybe he'll show better against a more even opponent (maybe in the Lakers game?).
