White

[Goldfield]

I am very impressed whith this guy...


I was happy when I heard he was traded to us, but I had no idea he was as solid as he is...


He is gunna be a big part of our team. He is exactly what we needed at the center spot.


He brings tuffness and rebounding and some dunks to the game. He will make it alot easier for Amare inside, and we should improve alot IMO once this team gels completely...


I hope he is a Sun for a good amount of time...

I was pleasantly surprised that Frank Johnson realized the Phoenix Suns had an advantage with White's size and toughness and exploited it from the beginning of the game. He didn't simply try to match their skill and quickness.

I couldn't understand why White had so few minutes against Denver, considering how the Suns were getting killed on boards and holding a layup drill. It sure made a difference against Dallas.

I am guessing that White is not yet in condition to be playing 30 minutes a game productively, but he should be in as much feasible to prepare him for longer stints.

My guess is they were trying to let his finger heal more...

Maybe.

My theory is that since Williams played so well in the previous three games, FJ stayed with what had been working. My concern is that FJ seems to be slow to change his planned player rotation when the situation changes.
