Woefully pathetic defensive effort from the Suns considering all the recent practice time this team has had, and in going up against a Timberwolves team that is near the bottom of the league in terms of offensive efficiency. I'll take the win, but defense like this cannot happen game in and game out.

The Suns need a trade in the worst way.

IMO, the Suns are a .500 team at best right now. Sure wish the Suns had kept Amundson and did not trade for Turkoglu. If the Suns could subtract Turkoglu from the roster that alone would help the team. I guess the suns did not learn anything from Toronto. The Suns right now are not a very good team with no answer on the roster.

"That team is painful to watch - they remind me of the '94 Celts after Reggie died, no potential franchise players, no real hope, and you haven't really cleaned house either. It's almost worse than rock-bottom."

Bill Simmons, talking about the Cavs...reminds me of another team we know and love...

Hahahahaha where's everyone that said "we don't need a trade right now" "lets just wait until we are the laughing stock of the NBA, then we can try for a trade"

ROFL!

From all reports, if Len Bias and Reggie Lewis didn't die so young, the Celtics would've had some excellent series against MJ's Bulls

I wondered why Hedo stayed in the game so long tonight with his lackluster play. Did you see the pathetic look on his face every minute he was on the court?

If the Suns were trying to showcase him, he sure wasn't cooperating.

Haha...lucky bounce for Barron on that jump shot. :)
I've been trying to remember who Earl Barron looks like facially, then it dawned on me.

Michael Cooper, the great defensive Guard off the bench for the Lakers, who now I think is the Head Coach of the L.A. Sparks in the WNBA.

The Suns need to start keeping him on the bench. A bad investment. No use sugar coating it. Perhaps the Toronto situation all over again. It's sad but I'm already thinking buyout. The Suns would really have to sweeten a deal to trade him if that were possible.

You really want me to prove where you said we dont need trade right now we have the right players its a chemistry problem?

I mean if its a team chemistry problem, how come Utah, NY, Chicago, Miami and New Orleans havent had this problem despite changing ul their roster?

Because they went out and sign quality players instead of signing and trading for SCRUBS like Warrick & Turkoglu!

How awesome is Grant Hill, he at times looked like the best player on the court last night.

Did Childress play at all last night?
No, he didn't. Apparently he's the odd man out for awhile.

At 6'8"-209, he should be getting the time at backup Small Forward vs. Hedo, who weighs only 220, but has no natural position at 6'10". But we know that's not going to happen.
