The offense is just an embarrassment. No plan, no movement, one lousy shot after another. It's been a glaring problem ever since Watson took over. This team needs an offensive coordinator.

If we want to tank, keep bledsoe. Hes great attacking the rim, but loves taking awful long range shots he never makes.

Plus his inability to shoot off the ball means he and booker do not play well together.

I was hoping Ulis would be more effective.

Bledsoe and Booker are the Suns offense with Jackson trying to create some shots.

They need a real coach.

Wasn't there talk here last season that Watson won't be back. So the question is ... why is he?

Seriously. Is he good in developing young players? Is he good with X's and O's? Do the fans love him?

Or is it just that he's the best choice to lead another season of tank?

So far this game, they are not just bad. They are embarrassing.

Wasn't any offensive teamwork developed during the pre-season?

Edit: Sorry Stefan. I didn't see your 'embarrassing' comment until after I posted mine. But it sure is.

Jesus, I think the 'Fifty' written on the floor is the goal of our opponents to beat us by.

The Suns bench has still yet to score.

Put in Alec Peters. He can't be worse than the others on the bench. He is big and can shoot.

Reportedly Watson just asks the player to be on time and shoot the ball. I'm hoping this is an exaggeration.

I miss Slinslin so he can explain the story on Chriss.

There are at least a couple of tank threads.

I think the Suns are doing quite nicely on their own. The Suns need more than talent, coaching is a large problem as well.

Booker is out of the games with cramps or something similar.

Watson won't last until the All Star break. There's no excuse for this. First game of the damn season! Down 50 points! Unreal!
