Len with 7 points, 7 rebounds and 5 blocks in the 1st half. The Suns need him to stay out of foul trouble as well as Bledsoe.

Also it would help if someone could hit a shot. I'm pleased with Goodwin in the 1st half.

That's kind of been a problem most nights. And spacing has been horrible all season because of it.

As mentioned by Eddie Johnson, Green seems to have lost confidence in his shot.

Well despite Marcus Morris shooting over 40% from 3 none of our small forwards is a 3 point threat.

PJ can only make them from that one corner.

Green is either on or off..

Len and Wright don't stretch the floor.. he is trying to attack hard but nobody can make a basket of a pass.

Goodwin has definitely played well, making an argument to get playing time over Green even when Knight and Thornton are available.

Bledsoe seems a little bit under pressure so far.

I'm stuck with the Garnett show. It seems like that's all these clowns have been talking about in this game, how much Kevin will do for every aspect of their team and their organization. Someone needs to make Gerald angry so he can put on his cape.

Bledsoe needs to do a better job of finding cutters on fast breaks. He had 2 guys open when he instead dished it to Green just now a contested 3.

Marcus... the only thing you do remotely well is shoot 3s, you cant be passing up wide open looks from the top of the arch.

Looks like Hornacek still likes going small to fix spacing with Markieff at the 5 and Marcus the 4.

When Len is out of the game there is not much of an alternative but Kieff at the 5.

I've noticed something different in this game. I feel the guys are more noticeably fired up from a teammate's big play!

After Len's last block, I think a teammate shouted "Get that S*** out of here" ... Then on Tucker's and-1, Len visibally pumped his fist and screamed. Was this type of stuff happening a few weeks ago? The team just seemed "on edge" this whole season I feel like and playing for themselves too much. They seem more loose & team-oriented today. Hopefully that continues ...

Archie is playing really good defense, Martin is just making tough shots over him. I hope Archie doesn't lose confidence and keeps doing his thing.

Gerald Green's pathetic defense allowed Martin to get on fire in the first place.

Btw for those who care, Tyler Ennis is playing today for the Bucks on their game against the Nuggets.

Whatever happened between last year and this year, I can't remember Green being so bad defensively last year.

He is also hardly dunking at all.

I feel like Len is getting a tip on some of these wild Pecovic shots in this half ... maybe he should have 8 or 9 blocks ? :)

You might be watching with Len colored glasses but yeah, he's really making Pek work.

He would make the occasional great play on defense but for the most part he was a liability at that end of the court.
