Game Thread: Spurs @ Suns -- Thurs. (1/21) - 9:30PM (5:30AM Riga Time)

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Uns got away with another offensive foul

[Budkin]

Is tonight not the 11-year anniversary of 48?

It was the 22nd but close enough!

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Poor shot selection, Spurs

[BanditHiro]

wtf get inside Boban and play inside outside

[Ron Swanson]

Pop going for the mercy kill with Boban in early.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

It was the 22nd but close enough!
No, it wasn't:

[sasaint]

Simmons with the great D!

[Silver&Black]

Seems like I've seen the Suns throw that Oop to Chandler 5-6 times this year against us...

Think he's missed every single one of them.

[BanditHiro]

shooting 35% christ

[UNT Eagles 2016]

POOR transition D

[FaM0us Skins]

5 pt game lol

[loveforthegame]

Bench doing work.

[spursistan]

we are messing around..just kill this shit and rest guys..

[FaM0us Skins]

Simmons!

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Terrible defense Spurs, no heart! You've got to get to that jumper! :bang

[TXstbobcat]

Simmons!!!!!!

[MultiTroll]

Boris getting his weak shit swatted twice.
Get the ball to Boban. Huge mismatch!

[beirmeistr]

No, it wasn't:

you're right, UNT

[100%duncan]

Jsimms...

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Bench scrubbing it up :bang typical Spurs being allergic to big leads... I know it's early but we've got to put it away by halftime, can't let scrub team have a chance considering we have a B2B tomorrow night...

[Silver&Black]

Spurs lead 25-18 after one...

[raybies]

That shot off the glass:wow

[313]

Just tuned in, what'd I miss?

[UNT Eagles 2016]

you're right, UNT
11 years. And we won the championship that year, too. :toast

[313]

Spurs lead 25-18 after one...

http://i.imgur.com/gElxqj7.png
No Parker or Tim? DNP rest?

[TheGreatYacht]

Boban touched the ball once. Smh that's gonna be Kawhi when he plays next to Kirby, Chuckbrook, Stephanie, and DuRef

[Pauleta14]

How terrible are the Suns?

We're playing bad, shooting 35% and leading by 7pts

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Just tuned in, what'd I miss?
Spurs dinked and dunked their way to a 7 point lead against arguably the worst and most talent starved team in the NBA

[SpurPadre]

Manu has been destroying PHX for over a decade....

You would boo too if you were a Suns fan.

But every Spur, except for Ayres and Bonner, have destroyed the Suns for over a decade.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Boban touched the ball once. Smh that's gonna be Kawhi when he plays next to Kirby, Chuckbrook, Stephanie, and DuRef
Diaw and Ginobili took some poor shots towards the end of that quarter. No excuse to not be leading by double digits.

[Silver&Black]

No Parker or Tim? DNP rest?

Parker hip soreness...
Duncan DNP Old...

[Shastafarian]

typical Spurs being allergic to big leads...

Are you serious?

[Silver&Black]

But every Spur, except for Ayres and Bonner, have destroyed the Suns for over a decade.

That's a damn good point :lmao

[BillMc]

Shooting 34% and we've a 7 point lead on the road after 1

Love this team.

[100%duncan]

How is Phx even an NBA team right now? A dleague team should replace them. Worse than the 6xers

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Are you serious?
Detroit game

Boston game


could name others

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Shooting 34% and we've a 7 point lead on the road after 1

Love this team.
against the subjectively worst team in the league

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Not Craig Sager, Pop doesn't give a fuck. :lol

[100%duncan]

OMG boban got posterized

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Boban getting anally fucked! :lmao

[beirmeistr]

Parker hip soreness...
Duncan DNP Old...

Parker hip soreness, Duncan old hips

D'oh, sorry I was looking at a newspaper article from the next day. Sorry bro. :toast

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Poor shot selection Mills :bang

[Robz4000]

Suns clearly want this game more. Pathetic effort by the Spurs.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Terrible effort on the glass, D-Worst :bang

[r0drig0lac]

wtf

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Another turnover by San Antonio Shits :bang

[spursistan]

:lmao Spurs

[BillMc]

against the subjectively worst team in the league

Doesn't stop me from enjoying it.

[BatManu20]

Spurs ice cold from the perimeter.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

HORRID shot selection, Leonard... scrub!

[100%duncan]

Man kawhi really needs to get off this mini slump smh

[spursistan]

Leonard shot broken..

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Spurs ice cold from the perimeter.
Poor shot selection. Can't settle for contested long 2s.

[Budkin]

Suns clearly want this game more. Pathetic effort by the Spurs.

I hate playing shitty teams.

[BatManu20]

There you go Simmons

[loveforthegame]

Leonard-Simmons

[Silver&Black]

Simmons corner 3 looking good...

Chip strikes again.

[313]

Simmons :worthy:

[MultiTroll]

Great patience by Kwa.
Great team ball in passing to Simmons for the trey.

[SAGirl]

I wanted more Anderson in this game. Seriously.

[BatManu20]

Simmons again

[Silver&Black]

Simmons...

My nigga.

Stay aggressive son.

[BanditHiro]

MVSimmons carrying this team

[313]

Simmons :worthy:

[UNT Eagles 2016]

good run, that's what you get for not jacking up a bunch of long 2's :tu

[Uriel]

Jonathan Simmons >>> Marco Bellinelli

[r0drig0lac]

JSimms!!!

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Doesn't stop me from enjoying it.
We play the 2nd worst tomorrow night

[SpurAddict561]

Simmons is legit

[SpurPadre]

Simmons doing work but he probably feels like he's back in the d-league in this one.

[ErnestLynch]

Huge Simmons fan. I like this kid.

[SAGirl]

Boris with the slow break!

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Jonathan Simmons >>> Marco Bellinelli
Better defense and athleticism >> slightly better shooting and passing with that Italian traffic cone defense imo

[Shastafarian]

Detroit game

Boston game


could name others

Yeah forget the record number of wins by large margins and being on a pace to destroy the point differential margin. But by all means, name others. No one will care.

[BillMc]

We play the 2nd worst tomorrow night

Should be fun too.

[313]

Man kawhi really needs to get off this mini slump smh
He was bound to regress eventually. At least we get less krew threads during this little slump :tu

[dabom]

Kawhi Simmons synergy real guys. Been saying it for a long time now.

[Robz4000]

I hate playing shitty teams.

I hate playing the Suns, Jazz, Blazers, and other try-hard teams that ball out when they see a Spurs jersey.

[maverick1948]

If Boris Diaw was 6'4 and 220, he would be an All NBA point guard. As is, he is a great point forward.

[TheGreatYacht]

Diaw and Ginobili took some poor shots towards the end of that quarter. No excuse to not be leading by double digits.
Yeah Manu tried to do too much, must've been trying to shut the boos up.

Boban and Manu leave, Spurs start playing well

[SAGirl]

Simmons crafty. :toast

[SpursFan86]

Man, if Simmons develops a reliable 3-point shot...

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Spurs built the lead by driving and scoring and dishing it out for good shots. We lost it by jacking up long contested 2's off isolation plays. Then we've built it back up most of the way by driving and scoring and dishing again. Hope we've learned our lesson. Don't trust the Spurs, though.

[BillMc]

I may be in the minority, but I want them to retire Boris's jersey someday....

and bronze his espresso machine.

[SpurAddict561]

Jonathan Simmons >>> Marco Bellinelli

As much as I liked Belli, I will agree if Simmons makes this same impact in the playoffs...his ceiling is high with his athleticism alone.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Yeah Manu tried to do too much, must've been trying to shut the boos up.

Boban and Manu leave, Spurs start playing well
Manu had 2 bad shots but it wasn't just him. Leonard, Mills and even Diaw took some bad shots

[100%duncan]

He was bound to regress eventually. At least we get less krew threads during this little slump :tu

It's frustrating tbh. He should go balls deep and drive if the shot isnt falling

[SpursIndonesia]

He was bound to regress eventually. At least we get less krew threads during this little slump :tu

Amen to this. :tu

[Pauleta14]

I hope Pop will "limit" Kawhi on what he does very well unless he really gets better the next months...

I understand the process, he needs to learn, get better... but he is still not a good enough dribler/playmaker...

[100%duncan]

Kiwi :worthy:

[100%duncan]

I love Bobo, how could you not as a Spurs fan? He's so versatile and has been a MAJOR cog in our success.

[ElNono]

Just tuned in, what's the story with Tim? Just rest?

[UNT Eagles 2016]

shit call :td

[FaM0us Skins]

WEST!

[100%duncan]

Just tuned in, what's the story with Tim? Just rest?

Too tired from fucking Vanessa the past 3 nights.

[SAGirl]

My feed is lagging. This game is not in League Pass. One of those in and out.

[SpursFan86]

Now Tucker is out too...holy shit :lol

[maverick1948]

[QUOTE=SpursFan86;8383465]Man, if Simmons develops a reliable 3-point shot...[/QUOTE

He is averaging .458 from 3 point. Small sample but has a good stroke.

[SpurPadre]

Nice D by Patty

[Silver&Black]

Ka:wow

[FaM0us Skins]

Nice play by KL

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Kawhi should do that more :tu

[BatManu20]

Kawhi!

[loveforthegame]

Damn Leonard. :worthy:

[100%duncan]

That's what I want. Go aggressive if the shot isnt there. :lol haters

[SAGirl]

Just tuned in, what's the story with Tim? Just rest?
Rest.Tony injured but seems mild and might even play tomorrow.

[MultiTroll]

For a 19 year old Devin Booker looks pretty damn good.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

lucky shot by Uns :td

[SpurAddict561]

Just tuned in, what's the story with Tim? Just rest?

That's what they reported at tip

[r0drig0lac]

Kawhizilla!!!!

[UNT Eagles 2016]

ugh, no more long 2s

[SAGirl]

Kawhi easy lol

[100%duncan]

Daddy tyson didnt want none of that

[Silver&Black]

Largest point differential in NBA history....

:lol "Typical Spurs allergic to large leads"

[UNT Eagles 2016]

For a 19 year old Devin Booker looks pretty damn good.
Might be their best player with Bledsoe out and Dragic gone

long 2s are bad :bang

[ElNono]

Rest.Tony injured but seems mild and might even play tomorrow.

:tu

[loveforthegame]

Good grief. Clear the fuck out when Leonard has Chandler on him.

[100%duncan]

Wtf was that spacing? Kawhi had chandler on him and west and aldridge are standing in the paint? Idiots

[SpurAddict561]

I just stopped breathing when Kawhi fell..

[spursistan]

Kawhi can't hit anything oustide the paint..

[Mnky]

I hate those camera men

[UNT Eagles 2016]

our D is pretty good, they've made a few shots but we've definitely picked it up :tu

[Uriel]

Jonathan Simmons >>> Marco Bellinelli

[BatManu20]

Here we go. 18-point lead.

[Silver&Black]

Sweep the leg....need to be up by 40 IMO.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

risky pass by Aldridge there, would have been picked off if a better defender had been looking in there. Good result there.

[Uriel]

Can we top the 51-point win at Philly?

[Robz4000]

I may be in the minority, but I want them to retire Boris's jersey someday....

and bronze his espresso machine.

Same

[beirmeistr]

you don't have TNT?

[BillMc]

I love Bobo, how could you not as a Spurs fan? He's so versatile and has been a MAJOR cog in our success.

100% agree.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Sweep the leg....need to be up by 40 IMO.
Don't care about that so much as putting the game away by halftime so we can rest our guys and guarantee we win tomorrow night as well. A bit upsetting the darn Dubs beat both the Cavs and Bullies on the road, had better hopes for them.

[313]

Spurs dinked and dunked their way to a 7 point lead against arguably the worst and most talent starved team in the NBA


I hope Pop will "limit" Kawhi on what he does very well unless he really gets better the next months...

I understand the process, he needs to learn, get better... but he is still not a good enough dribler/playmaker...Probably won't see a huge improvement in that area this season. Hopefully he works on it a lot over the summer, but who knows how busy he'll be with the Olympics(if he gets selected). Either way I don't think he'll ever be a Curry or an Irving level ball handler, but if he can get to Jordan(:lol) level then he'll be fine going forward.

[Pauleta14]

:lmao

Why?

I'm not bashing him, I love him, but he is sooo much more productive when he doesn't try to do too much the all in his hand...

[BillMc]

Wish Pop would let Kyle run the offense a little more.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Can we top the 51-point win at Philly?
let's not get carried away... but we need to go up by as many as possible so Leonard and Aldridge can join Timmy/Tony on the pine and Manu doesn't see the court the rest of the way.

[SAGirl]

For a 19 year old Devin Booker looks pretty damn good.
One of the phoenix fans who visits the forum occassionally posted that he's their best player at this point.
Reflects how sad their state is, but at least they have a nice player who is that young.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Wish Pop would let Kyle run the offense a little more.
Did SAGirl use her psychic beacon on you? :lol

[100%duncan]

Probably won't see a huge improvement in that area this season. Hopefully he works on it a lot over the summer, but who knows how busy he'll be with the Olympics(if he gets selected). Either way I don't think he'll ever be a Curry or an Irving level ball handler, but if he can get to Jordan(:lol) level then he'll be fine going forward.

Some people are so fucking clueless that Kawhi doesnt have the 1st step that for example Lebron or Westbrook has. He doesnt have the natural talent in that department so he needs more opportunities rather than taking a step back

[SpurAddict561]

Aldridge>Splitter
Simmons>Belli
West/Boban>Baynes/Ayres

Best moves ever.

[TheGreatYacht]

Warriors might've blown the Cavs and Bulls out on the road, but I bet they didn't this to the Suns :downspin:

[dabom]

you don't have TNT?

I watch some games on my PC just so I can comment right away. I'm not SAGirl. Just saying.

[Silver&Black]

Still :lol'ing at Zaza...

Fucking fans. I hate all you bastards.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Draymond is overrated.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

another lucky shot :td

[BillMc]

Did SAGirl use her psychic beacon on you? :lol
:lol No, it was my own thoughts....um, I think....:dizzy

[Kawhitstorm]

For a 19 year old Devin Booker looks pretty damn good.

He can already create his own shots better than Klay:lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

How's that not a shooting foul? :td

[raybies]

Where's Reggie been :lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Piss poor transition D... can't lose this lead now :bang

[TheDoctor]

You put Kawhi's jumper with a whore and neither goes in.

[loveforthegame]

What's Leonard got to do to get some respect from the refs?

[UNT Eagles 2016]

no continuation? WTF refs :td

[Kawhitstorm]

Kawhi not getting any calls:sleep

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Can't lose this lead again...

[SpursFan86]

KA shot looked clean :tu

[loveforthegame]

Anderson. :tu

[BatManu20]

KA!

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Anderson made a 3? :wow

[dabom]

Kawhi. :lmao

[raybies]

Did Kyle actually hit a three?!

[BatManu20]

Shit call on Boban. Not a foul

[UNT Eagles 2016]

That's a TERRIBLE call :bang Boban went straight up! :cuss

[r0drig0lac]

Kyle Bird

[313]

More surprising than KA hitting a three, is him actually taking the three

[Pauleta14]

Some people are so fucking clueless that Kawhi doesnt have the 1st step that for example Lebron or Westbrook has. He doesnt have the natural talent in that department so he needs more opportunities rather than taking a step back

You underestimate training and work ethic...

He doesn't need to have Curry or Kyrie handling, the same way TP didn't need to become Stockton, be he can improve a lot and that's the goal.

Just a long term thing the Spurs do better than everybody...

[Kawhitstorm]

Kawhi not getting any calls:sleep

Meanwhile scrubs getting bogus calls:wakeup

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Wtf? How does that big scrub make BOTH on a bad call? Fucking BS :cuss

[SAGirl]

Wish Pop would let Kyle run the offense a little more.
He hasn't been involved in anything they are doing offensively TBH

[100%duncan]

I watch some games on my PC just so I can comment right away. I'm not SAGirl. Just saying.

Me too. I live alone in my apt so I opted that my TV become my pc monitor since i dont watch tv much and streaming is better :lol

[loveforthegame]

Leonard gets more calls shooting jumpers than attacking. WTF.

[SAGirl]

and there KA goes makes a shot!

[Mnky]

Anderson made a 3? :wow

Hess been shooting good.. ? Why surprised

[Silver&Black]

:lol Phoenix's "God awful Defense"

[UNT Eagles 2016]

get the lead up over 20 guys

[UNT Eagles 2016]

wtf Boban, you've got to grab that!

[dabom]

Me too. I live alone in my apt so I opted that my TV become my pc monitor since i dont watch tv much and streaming is better :lol

Yeah man. TV is for big games. Or bar or something.

[100%duncan]

You underestimate training and work ethic...

He doesn't need to have Curry or Kyrie handling, the same way TP didn't need to become Stockton, be he can improve a lot and that's the goal.

I dont underestimate work ethic. That's exactly my point. Kawhi didnt have any offensive skills before entering the league, but look where he is now.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

TERRIBLE transition defense! UGH! :bang

[BatManu20]

Come on Boban

[SpurPadre]

WTF, Boban?

[100%duncan]

Yeah man. TV is for big games. Or bar or something.

Yah I just watch on tv if im with my fam who are spurs fans too

[LaMarcus Bryant]

Worst game of Boban career thus far lol

[TheGreatYacht]

GTFO Boban

[spursistan]

Bobab has been meh tonight..

[313]

Some people are so fucking clueless that Kawhi doesnt have the 1st step that for example Lebron or Westbrook has. He doesnt have the natural talent in that department so he needs more opportunities rather than taking a step back
Oh I agree, I don't think he should be posted in the corner or anything. I feel like he makes up for that lack of elite slashing ability, with his post game.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

What the fuck? How the fuck did we not score on that possession? UGH what is up with this team and its allergy to leads? :bang

[Uriel]

Spurs offense completely disoriented by the zone :lmao

[2centsworth]

Boban coming back to earth?

[Texas_Ranger]

none of this guards can pass a high pass.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Worst game of Boban career thus far lol
Boban screwed the pooch against the Suns last time, too. Maybe a bad matchup. Uns are too good/big for Boban.-

[SAGirl]

Hess been shooting good.. ? Why surprised
Some ppl are very subjective on the negative side of things always....

[Robz4000]

Spurs letting Phoenix climb back into it...

[sasaint]

Ray put together a great half court sequence there and both of our bigs deprived him of an assist. He even pulled down a board.

[Capt Bringdown]

Boban Jumping the Shark. Shitting the bed, big style.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Me too. I live alone in my apt so I opted that my TV become my pc monitor since i dont watch tv much and streaming is better :lol
Lots of good streams on the internet today :toast

[BillMc]

Boban coming back to earth?

Yeah, I was thinking the same. There will be some games where he shows his inexperience at this level. Natural progression.

[DAF86]

Pop trying his best to take some of the hype out of the SAS-GSW matchup by losing this game.

[100%duncan]

Oh I agree, I don't think he should be posted in the corner or anything. I feel like he makes up for that lack of elite slashing ability, with his post game.

I mean a spot up corner 3 is good from time to time esp now with him struggling to throw the ball into the ocean but asking him to take a step back esp in a game that doesnt matter much and where Tony our best playmaker this season is sitting out is just ridiculous :lol

[SpurPadre]

Boban better focus more on his game than his showboating.

[TheDoctor]

Boban needs the "freak cheers"(:pop: ) to play good.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

good defense by Boban there

[TheGreatYacht]

Suns running a zone and Pop doesn't have Green out there....

[FaM0us Skins]

McCallum!

[BatManu20]

Nice shot Ray

[100%duncan]

RIP Spurtacular

[Silver&Black]

MVPatty 4 333333333333333333333333....

Ooh wait that was Ray Ray. :wakeup

[BatManu20]

Booker is gonna be good

[100%duncan]

Suns running a zone and Pop doesn't have Green out there....

With this season, why would he? :lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

You CAN'T give up and 1's when you're trying to protect a lead! :bang Dumbasses...

[raybies]

Id trade Simmons for booker right now :wow

[sasaint]

Ray quietly playing a very good game.

[100%duncan]

Simmons or Booker?

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Where was Boban in the paint there? Inexcusable to let the Uns stay in the game when we have a B2B tomorrow night. :td

[Mnky]

That Booker kid is interesting. Honestly hadn't heard much about him.. was Bledsoe holding him back?

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Can't give up SECOND CHANCES! :bang UGH!

[FaM0us Skins]

51-39

[BatManu20]

Shitty end to the half but some good stuff from our reserves for the most part.

[Silver&Black]

Spurs lead by 12...51-39 at halftime.

http://i.imgur.com/gMdxv5u.png

[100%duncan]

Bench doing kawhi a solid keeping it close so that nigga can statpad

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Shitass ending to the first half :bang San Antonio Shits dinked and dunked again! It's one thing to do it in the first quarter, but unacceptable and pathetic to continue in the 2nd. How did our 18 point lead just evaporate like that? Pathetic :bang

[Robz4000]

What a shitfest by the Spurs so far. Hopefully it doesn't cost them in the second half with the Suns making a run.

[spursistan]

Feels like a loss that this is not a +25 blow out already..

[100%duncan]

Spurs lead by 12...51-39 at halftime.

http://i.imgur.com/gMdxv5u.png

that 3-10 hurts my eyes

[UNT Eagles 2016]

How the FUCK are the Spurs only up 12 against the least talented team in the NBA? :bang

[sasaint]

Boris coaching Ray before they went to the locker. I love seeing our old guys building up the young guys.

[ducks]

Suns make a run lol

Agreed 100%... pathetic effort

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Suns make a run lol
Pelicans game... Detroit game, even though they lost, tbh

[Silver&Black]

that 3-10 hurts my eyes

Seeing Matt Bonner on our roster still hurts my eyes...

[Spurtacular]

RIP Spurtacular (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=49615)

Meh. Suns are a glorified d-league team, tbh.

[BillMc]

Boris coaching Ray before they went to the locker. I love seeing our old guys building up the young guys.

[SAGirl]

This is one of those rare games that Ray has the opportunity to play. He hasn't even been in uniform for games, so Pop owes it to him to allow him to play point and get minutes, but that play to end the Q was ugly. He put Kyle in a tough position to make a contested 3.

[spursistan]

Agreed 100%... pathetic effort
we are going to get run out of the gym by GSW if we keep on sleepwalking to games as we've been doing lately..

[apalisoc_9]

The suns have made a couple of good runs against the bench and the third stringers. Interesting to see if pop is going to continue treating this game like an experiment in the second half or be worried enough to play like they usuaully do.

[100%duncan]

Seeing Matt Bonner on our roster still hurts my eyes...

FUCK OFF BRO COACH B IS MY NIGGA...

[BatManu20]

Danny's confidence has to be in the basement right now tbh. Can't even get minutes against the Suns

[Robz4000]

Suns make a run lol

Wouldn't shock me

[Spurtacular]

that 3-10 hurts my eyes

And yet, a +20. And yet, no steals and blocks. Teams avoiding KL like he was a pro bowl corner back.

[ErnestLynch]

Pop trying his best to take some of the hype out of the SAS-GSW matchup by losing this game.

riiiight...But you're right. The GS doesn't really mean anything. We beat them twice last year, right ? And what happened ? We lost in the 1st round, they won the title.

EJ is wrong, Spurs won't rest guys for the GSW game. NBATV doesn't really count as "nationally televised".

Suns have way more young talent than the Sixers and a lot of other teams right now, and they haven't tried tanking. Booker, Tucker, Warren, Goodwin. Len is going to be a solid big for years to come.

Draft picks to boot. Too bad they moved out that Lakers pick for Knight when they could have just kept Thomas and moved him this year.

Will be interesting to see if Morris can net another pick, or if it'll purely be a salary dump.

we are going to get run out of the gym by GSW if we keep on sleepwalking to games as we've been doing lately..
Yep. We go down 20-7 against the Dubs, we never get back in the game. First quarter is critical. We don't have to win it, but we have to stay close.

This is one of those rare games that Ray has the opportunity to play. He hasn't even been in uniform for games, so Pop owes it to him to allow him to play point and get minutes, but that play to end the Q was ugly. He put Kyle in a tough position to make a contested 3.

Not pretty, but in fairness to Ray, nobody was moving. Other than that play, however, Ray played surprisingly well. He has looked good on D - acknowledging that nobody has really tried to pick on him.

That Booker kid is interesting. Honestly hadn't heard much about him.. was Bledsoe holding him back?
He's a rookie SG. He went OFF in SL. I don't think he would have gotten minutes over Bledsoe or Knight (seeing as how they are paid like superstarts), but with the injuries go figures.
A Phoenix fan said he's basically their best player at this moment. I believe it.
