Gerald to get less playing time kind of ticks me off. I am not saying this 3 guard lineup is bad but.....

Agreed. Green not playing that one game was like what the hell??

You think? Haven't seen much bball but I was under the impression the CLlips were solid and the Suns not so much

Yeah I was joking. Suns have an outside chance of a victory in my opinion. We were neck and neck with them on their court last week and now we're at home so who knows.

I'd take the 7th street exit.

Devin Booker, at age 20, already has the most chill ejection in NBA history?

 

[The Derski]

Those nuggets announcers are retarded though

 

[The Derski]

Forget about josh Jackson. I want Markkanen

I do not get the way the organization is handling the roster. The Suns are arguably the worst team in the NBA and have the fourth pick of the draft Bender riding the bench. What are they trying to accomplish?

 

[The Derski]

Not to trash on the kid but I hated that pick from the get-go.

Bledsoe makes so many plays where he drives the lane, gets caught in the air, and turns over the ball. Plus his shit just isn't that good. I say we use him as trade bait at the deadline. Honestly Ulis runs the offense way better.

That cannot happen, though—you can never get ejected while you are at the free throw line, regardless of the circumstances.

Booker is good, and he knows it, but he needs to engage with opponents and officials less and focus on his defense more.

I agree that the Suns should look to trade Bledsoe—if not at the trading deadline, then next summer. He has not progressed much (if at all) as a playmaker, and he is certainly not a franchise point guard.

Ulis is easily the best playmaker on this team, and the Suns will need to see if his lack of size prevents him from being a worthwhile starter or if he can overcome that deficiency.

Booker's current ranking in Defensive Real Plus-Minus:

NBA Real Plus-Minus - National Basketball Association - ESPN

That is not to say that the metric is perfect, and I do not know why Avery Bradley and Klay Thompson currently rank so low, but I do believe that the gauge is pretty accurate in Booker's case right now.
