    The Suns were awful. Quite frankly that's about as bad of a team as I've seen in awhile.

    They need guys like Jackson and Warren to step and learn how to be effecient scorers. They’re main problem is offensively they are maybe the least dynamic team I have ever seen... I do realize they were missing booker.

    Mikal is such a waste on that roster. He'd be perfect as a complimentary piece on a contending team but he's just not an Alpha type.

    Makes you wonder if Terry has a mandate to play Moe from Neil. Mentioned it a few weeks back, but Jake does not deserve DNPs. Terry mentioned after the game when asked why Jake doesn't play that "getting Moe in the starting lineup is a priority."

    Why?

    I think it's for his injured ankle.

    That’s sad. Looks like it’s a money thing. It probably kills them a minimum guy does much more than a 40M dollar player

    Lol at Stotts angrily calling a time out because the team fucked up a play. He only has the balls to do this kind of thing with the 3rd stringers...

    Maybe Mo threatened to pout again (more?), and Terry just melted to his big puppy eyes.

    Actually, I would bet on Neil being the driving force behind both Hark and Turner. It sure as heck ain't merit!

    When directly after that he says that Layman isn't in the 2nd unit because Curry, Nik, and ET are playing sooooooo well together it makes it obvious he's just to stuck in his ways.

    Kind of hilarious that Stauskas managed to have a negative +/- even against the SUNS.

    (And don't say it was because he was playing with Baldwin et. al. - he had it before the fourth.)

    If you say so. Is Jake that bad? Is Moe that good?

    What exactly has Curry done to earn minutes?
