    The recently unleashed Terrence Jones should be a good option for right now. But as far as playoffs go, we're gonna need him back!

    Did you mean: Garcia? Jones is too slow to play small forward

    Wondering about this also. 3 games for flu-like symptoms seems pretty bad (the flu, that is).

    They're obviously resting players. But if we start losing too many games down the stretch then I question managements decision to do this. Resting them a few games is cool. But we haven't even clinched a playoff seed yet

    Disagree, he maybe not slow, but does all the moves in 'Slow Motion'. Maybe it helps sometimes, but mostly not. So, I'm calling him Terrence 'SlowMo' Jones haha, maybe it's something with basketball IQ and he can't make decisions that fast? :grin:

    Exactly. If we win i look at it differently. We need to clintch this spot we don't need Beasley putting up 30 points and Dragic killing Lin.

    Good, let him rest. It gives Garcia another shot at proving himself, he has been hitting threes at a great clip.

    There's a difference between resting a healthy
    Player and making sure one of your key players is 100% before playing again to avoid reinjury.

    It's a good thing we traded for Garcia, he's a fine backup option in situations like these.

    i hope we see a lot of James Anderson tonight because Beasley is absolutely gonna burn the slow-footed Garcia. Not a very good matchup for us at that position. Other than that, we should dominate this game. I hope to see a lot of front court activity out of Smith and Asik, taking advantage of the Sun's lack of size and physicality.
