    LOL. That's photoshopped, right? ... I mean, isn't it? ... please?

    i don't want Aaron to learn the crotch grab defense. :(

    Good little game for AB tonight. 4 assists and no turnovers in limited time.

    13 min 8 shots

    but 4 assists and 8 points is good for 13 min in his first game with phx

    I have a feeling he`s going to play well for them. He`s got one of the best PG`s in the league to learn from. I think he`ll thrive in that system.

    His pps is crap. Even last year it took him almost 16 shots per game to average under 20 ppg.

    over the last two games he seems to be doing ok. nothing spectacular. he'll be fine backing nash. He and lowry were buddies last season. I wonder how it is this season.

    i think they're bringing him to fill in for Leandro Barbosa? not necessarily to replace Nash IMO

    I caught a few minutes of him last night, - basically came in and drained some 3's, set up a couple more, being Instant offense off the bench - that's his natural role.

    Good for him.

    Dudley making a difference on both ends. Carrying the comeback attempt. Brooks is playing quite well too but he wanted out in Houston.

    Looks like AB just needed a change of scenery.

    The Suns offense has a lot of PG mashing the ball even with Steve Nash so AB fits in

    Starting 0-8 in his last two games as a Rockets is looking more like he was sending a message now.

    The past two years, Brooks has been lighting it up in Boston even if he was struggling all year long. I really wanted Gentry to play him heavy minutes tonight. Little guy always has his game face on for the Celtics.

    lol...oookaaayy....

    What message was he sending when he started 0-4 the other night with Phoenix?

    You guys never cease to amaze me.

    Guy isn't 100%, was trying to adapt to a new role coming off the bench with the second unit, lost his starting job due to injury, had never been injured before and it just happens to happen in a contract year.

    No excuse for walking out or getting frustrated, but the guy is human. Probably best he's gone, for both teams.

    But, to base things off of 30-40 games as opposed to over two years, including playoff series' is ridiculous.

    Yep, the guy went out there and deliberately played poorly and tried to miss shots. Come on, man.
