whoever has our draft pick this year is looking at our new line ups and they're licking their chops

I understand Bol not getting minutes because he's not the most fundamentally sound player, but his length can be bothersome on defense, and he can put the ball in the hoop. His natural abilities should be getting him at least 10-15 minutes a night, even with a fully healthy roster. But no, Plumlee is Bud's answer.

screw it - put in the scrubs - oh wait

 

[Mainstreet]

Nice move by Ty Ty to score.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

I don't know what oso did to bud - but i hope they're still "talking" - i still would like to see him at power forward

 

[Yuma]

Nice move by Ty Ty to score.

Both baskets he made coming off spin moves.

They probably haven't had a chance to practice. Also, they had to pass physicals.

Just curious trade was a few days ago think they would have stuff squared away already….

 

[Yuma]

Trade deadline was the most players moved ever in NBA history. Maybe the league office a bit slow on the paperwork?

The Suns playing back-to-back games doesn't allow much time to practice?

[Yuma]

ALL suns negative in plus/minus right now.

I wish the Suns were developing a big man on a two-way contract.

Former summer league Sun, Trey Jemison III signed with the Lakers.

 

[Yuma]

Bol Bol filled up the stat sheet, but had NO Turn overs, and NO Personal Fouls.

I wouldn't worry just yet. There is a chance the Suns may not make the play-in or the play-offs.

That's for real. As the starters weren't getting the job done. Are Suns really as pitiful as they play? What the hell are the Suns doing in their practice sessions? Something is missing. Can they solve this?

Even when the Nuggets bench players played near the end of the game, their movement and passing was crisp.

The Suns often give the appearance they don't practice. It's perplexing to say the least.

Tyus needs to be moved to the bench. I don't care if it's Beal, Royce, or Grayson who takes his spot. He's a fine player on offense for 20 minutes a game but should run the second unit and not be a hindrance on both sides while Booker, KD, and Beal are out there. Tyus is awfully defensively, doesn't move off ball, and has gotten shot happy as of late. I don't care if he was promised a starting spot, he can pout.
