    Except we’re not even getting the rebound.

    J-lin had a good run too and it was a lot longer than 19 games but we all knew he wasn't a good basketball player and eventually it showed.

    Talking about mothers, wives, etc is rudimentary and shows an obvious lack of intelligence. I'll elect to keep the discussion to basketball, however you do you.

    Why don't you take some college courses and broaden your horizon.

    We are. We pulled down 19 offensive rebounds last night, way above the league average. We are still by far the best offensive rebounding team.

    Defensive rebounding is another story.

    Hate to break it to you but those are the only 2 paths that lead to your hit take...

    I book hotels for work in Sacramento once a year the options while not endless are plentiful. Maybe the league has a mandate that the hotel has to hit a high bar for one reason or another?

    so basically if Reed doesn't play like he was earlier we're ****ed

    and on top of that we are cutting his minutes to start aaron holiday. His player development will go great of course

    Feels like it but here we are. I hated Silas as a coach, and I might be on the path to hating Ime more. Is that possible? But as a long time fan I feel like he doesn’t have a bunch of options to fix it and it’s because he’s choosing not to embrace the options he does have. “When all you’ve got is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail”

    No, there's ALWAYS a 3rd option, in some cases a 4th. I think outside the box....try it

    Easy answer: better coaching. It's not always about the pieces but how someone can make the most out of the pieces assembled.

    Without Shogun, Ime is FLOUNDERING. Straight up flipping on the deck. And new age “me first” Shogun is not his best form.

    The Suns coach has been top notch so far. He’s getting near max value for the players he has

    Ott may get COY award if the Suns keep winning. I am curious to see how he's going to play Jalen when he comes back.
