    Either someone told Biggie to shoot it every damn time he touches it or he's just doing it anyway.

    Biggie and Meyers looked pretty bad there at the end of the 1st half.

    It may've just got away from him as he was flailing out of bounds going in the opposite direction. It was actually close to staying in on the Blazers side of the court. I applaud the effort.

    Yeah, it's pretty shocking how bad they are. Is this their starting line up?

    Yeah they are, its making it really hard to judge how the Blazers are doing. The good thing is the Blazers are definitely taking advantage of it.

    The bad news is... I think whatever we take away from this is going to be skewed by the fact Phoenix looks like a 24 hour fitness squad...

    Up and under was there too. Would've been the best post move of his life.

    No offense to noted S2 member Dan Marang, but they aren't going to keep sticking the Blazer Outsider people on the air at halftime in the regular season, right?

    Missing Booker and TJ Warren. Even with them, they'll only win about 21 games. Same as last year.

    We are going to carry them the whole year. Meyers should be third string at best. Gosh he's terrible. Wish we could cut them both and get a couple of two way contracts.

    No argument, but they've got pieces.
    Jackson is OK (thought he'd be better).
    Ayton is going to be good.
    Booker is fantastic.
    Bridges has upside, Warren is good, I've heard good things about Okobo.

    The problem is that they need to go the other way - ditch the vets, not get more.

    We’re trying to nominate bones and hj because they sound like theyve seen a basketball game before. :).

    People pay money to watch the Suns play? This isn't much different than playing that Israeli team last year.

    With the addition of Curry Staskus Simons Trent we are a better team than last year hands down.

    Not a popular opinion but I think Booker is so over rated, he’s more of a ball hog than CJ, he plays even worse defense (I dont know what the advanced stats say but watch him when he does play) good scorer, but he is so bad at the other facets of basketball it bothers me to watch him.
