    Yes, Turner's role should be to make the 2nd unit work as a unit. He should see minimal time alongside Dame, and zero time as a starter.

    Well, he's gonna start now since Lin injured his knee in the opener.

    Now he's gonna get gameplanned against and we will watch a one dimensional player succumb to that one dimension.

    Yes it was correct that defense won the first half, but they did mention it. Do we really want the announcers to point it out over and over?

    So you're saying NBA teams don't bother to gameplan against bench players? No WONDER Iguodala won Finals MVP!

    I'm not sure the Suns are an NBA team right now.
