If they don't blow them out of the water then I don't know what the future holds for this team.

Hmm...i dont think there is a team in this league that the Suns can "blow out" right now.

Forget win-loss records. If you compare rosters, Minnesota appears to be easily the better team. We have the better record but we've traded away a significant part of our roster and the only player of significance that was added to our roster is out with injury. Minnesota, OTOH, has steadily been improving and that was even before they had a couple of injured veterans return to the starting lineup. As far as our future goes, much of it lies in the 3 extra 1st round draft picks we have the rights to. And it will be probably be awhile before we cash those in.

Terrific defense by marcus doesn't go rewarded

 

[95pro]

awful uncontested pass by Bledsoe

 

[95pro]

throws another bad pass to Len's shins. lucky he got that one right back for the 3.

I think Keef was supposed to roll to the basket.

[AzStevenCal]

Payne has just blown by Morris twice now (Keef?)

Steve

 

[95pro]

another low pass to len which leads to a turnover

 

[95pro]

I think Keef was supposed to roll to the basket.

Steve

did you see how fast Bledsoe threw the pass? a slight lob to the open area would have been better to lead Kief into that open area.

Agreed, but either pass would have sailed out of bounds. Keef just stood there.

[AzStevenCal]

That's Keef's foul but it really should be on Bledsoe. He has no idea how to use a pick.

slower pass = time to react

bullet pass = no time...which it was

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns let the Wolves control the offensive board on that last exchange. Luckily the Wolves did not score.

Just did the same with Warren, like strong bounce pass...sheesh

Hate to say it but Marcus saved Eric a turnover earlier on what was probably his worst pass of the evening.

[Mainstreet]

TJ Warren is looking good. I hope he continues to get minutes as he is part of the Suns future.

 

[Absolute Zero]

Bled to Warren for 2 consecutive layups before the half. Nice!

Warren, Warren, he's our man - if he can't do it, no one can. Sorry, my wife and I just started marathoning episodes of Buffy/Angel and we just watched the cheerleader episode this afternoon. I guess I should have gone for something like "I know not what course our future may take; but as for me, give me Warren or give me Goodwin". With apologies to Patrick Henry.

I'd like to think the Suns future will be built around Bledsoe, Knight, Warren, Len and Bogdan Bogdanovic. Perhaps Archie is one of those players but I'm not so sure anymore unless he learns to shoot. And on some nights I want to add Markieff.

 

[Mainstreet]

Eric Bledsoe showing signs of how good he can be.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Keef is just killing it right now.

[Mainstreet]

I wanted to see Seth Curry tonight but I will take the win. Warren, Bledsoe and Markieff have played well.

I love that Jeff let Warren close the game.
