It's tough to win when your starting point guard, starting small forward and starting center combine for 9 points. 9 points total from 60% of your starting lineup!!!

better than 4 quarters period. yeesh on the game by Bledsoe tonight.

Bledsoe looked beat from the very beginning. Goran started off really well, but maybe he ran out of gas. They did both play a lot of minutes yesterday.

Gotta give Miami credit though- they played extremely well.

Small ball may be back. Per Paul Coro in an article dated 12-9-14.

LOS ANGELES – When the season began, a lineup with Markieff Morris at center, P.J. Tucker at power forward, Gerald Green at small forward and Goran Dragic and Eric Bledsoe in the backcourt was reserved for playing catch-up.

Now, it looks like it could be the Suns' best lineup. Coach Jeff Hornacek played it for the final 8:32 of Monday night's loss at the Los Angeles Clippers. The lineup only has logged 28 minutes this season and outscored teams by 12 with 56 percent shooting.

No center may be back at the end of games.

I'm disappointed that the Suns suck but I'm gonna enjoy this at least a little by making money off them.

Which big men do the Suns play next? :)

What's the update on IT? Did the Suns pay him $28 million so he can sit out so long with a minor ankle issue?

We haven't even heard anything about it, I wonder if the dude is milking it til he can get the hell outta here and go somewhere they don't have a ton of PGs.

The Suns are losing too often to bad or mediocre teams this season. :( That could come back to haunt them like last season when they're fighting to make the playoffs at the end of the season.

I am not at all sure they will make the playoffs this year. Its just too crowded in the west and they are still a developing team.

We certainly don't look like a playoff team right now but it's still early. We were 9 - 9 before we started playing well last season and put together a 10 2 stretch. Both Goran and Eric have looked great recently, now we just need them to both do that routinely.

Yep. We just have no center and no sf right now. Thomas can hopefully get us something. Dragic and Bledose are on the right track.

I disagree on SF. We have a decent rotation with Tucker and Mook and TJ waiting in the wings.

Tolliver will get playing time before Warren.
Tucker and Marcus are too inconsistent for my tastes.
