I predict we win by 30. Suns on the road, on the second night of a back-to-back, young and inexperienced...
Dragic is killing teams right now with his penetration. Hopefully someone can slow him down, but it won't be easy.
We're ****ed. Looks like Dragic has been playing SG as of late. Maybe Bev can slow him down? But then Bledsoe is guarded by Harden which.....oy veh. We're ****ed lol. /hyperbole
Bev was put into the starting lineup because Mchale said he is a great defender. He should be able to shut Dragic down according to Mchale.
Our Transition defense needs to be on the mark because the Suns have a lot ultra good athletes who are good off the dribble or can run in the open court. The Suns backcourt is another problem. Not only are they big, but they are quick and all of them can score. Bledsoe, Dragic and Green form a very explosive backcourt. Then you have Plumee and the Morris twins who can shoot from all over the court. The Suns are a lot better then people think and if they click, they can cause some seriouse damage.
He better improve from the ass kicking he got from Trey Burke because guarding Dragic and Bledsoe is a couple steps up.
Jeremy Lin is a very good player whose playmaking ability and offensive aggression is needed for us off the bench. It's pretty simple really, there doesn't need to be this much passive aggression from angry Lin fans.
To be frank, I read more garbage from anti-Lin fans here than obsessed Lin fans. I'm a Lin fan and I don't put down other players and I comment on the whole team. Lin is a part of the team and the way he plays is for the team, not really his own stats. Any Lin fan that puts Lin before the team should be ignored. And I don't find him a playmaker needed to come off the bench, per se. Just needed to be in there contributing to the team whether he starts or comes into the game later. I think most forums have people that pigeonhole others into a camp and these people just are impossible to deal or reason with so are best ignored.
You kind of pidgeon-hole yourself by having the hole open the day a player is signed, and all those that came through the hole talk about that same player, and passionately respond to comments about said player. That's a hole that can only be closed with time for those on the other side of it. Those that choose to enter on certain conditions are called bandwagoners. Now there are good bandwagoners and bad bandwaoners. But there are also b good fans and bad fans by that same token. However, those fans that cross the pidgeon-hole tend to cross back over when their initial conditions is no longer sustained. That is what irks those that choose to stay.
That is the reality, and people should stop caring about what other individuals think of them as fans and just be fans. Have common decency and respect for other people on the board like you would anywhere.
I don't see any chance. Chris Paul will probably make the first team and there are many other point guards who should be ahead of Beverley, namely Conley, Westbrook, Bledsoe, Lawson, Chalmers and even Rubio and Carter-William.
