With Javale McGee now freed from Shaqtin A Fool, Shaq needs someone new. I really want Brandon Knight to get some minutes, he can at least get some name recognition that way.

Al McCoy enters the court with Tina Turner's "Simply the Best" playing in the background.

Al McCoy and Cotton the soundtrack to my youth. God I love the Suns no matter how much its been up and down they've always been there. I like the Cardinals and D-Backs but I love the Suns.

I really hope the Suns aren't stupid enough to win this game. I get that the players won't tank on purpose but as a coach, you have to be smart. A few more losses for Watson's record won't harm all that much while getting a top rookie prospect could extend his time as HC for the next several years if that pick pans out.

It's time to bench Williams and Ulis and go with Chriss or Len at C along with Brandon Knight playing at least 20-25 mins.

I understand the philosophy of losing for a better lottery pick but what we may be watching over the last number of games is a head coach being developed in Earl Watson.

Watching Ulis, Jones Jr. and Alan Williams going full blast at the Thunder says something. The Suns have developed an attitude for better or worse, they are going to be in your face and not back down. Also, this happened while the Suns were playing their bench.

The Suns are falling in love with the outside shot.

Just as I say it, Booker drives for a basket... then Bledsoe.

I agree. Booker and Chris are as in your face as it gets there. There both physical and trash talkers the young kids def have a don't back down attitude

I'm thinking Derrick Jones Jr. can be added to the list. He was in the grill of Westbrook.

Steven Adams is making an impact for OKC.

I wish we could just play the Grizzlies every game for remainder of the season.

Dudley with a killer 3 at the end of the 3rd quarter.

Mr. Dudley you are proving me wrong.

Got
To
Lose


(But our bench is really showing chutzpah these days)

Philly and orlando won today, so won't hurt that much.

I'm having a hard time rooting for a loss after westbrook was acting like a punk

I'm waiting for Derrick Jones Jr. to guard Westbrook.

But the Lakers are most definitely going to lose today.

Ulis just gets into the lap of an offensive player when he plays defense.

I think this is the last tanked season for the suns. Next season should see a climb...But how high?
