Game #18: Toronto Raptors 102 - Phoenix Suns 107

[tDotted]

Beat this fucking team by 40 because I still remember was that Stockton-Malone coat-tail rider Hornacek said in our last game

*Pssst*

What did he say?

Is Chandler out?


Also, easy win. I just hope we don't hold Leuer back.... for fantasy reasons.

Chandler will not play tonight.

Chandler will not play tonight.

I bet Len or Leuer is starting then.

We got away with terrible offence yesterday, continue to lock down on D and make some open shots and we win.

[tDotted]

I bet Len or Leuer is starting then.

If Leur is starting, we could get away with a lineup of KL-CJ-DD-DC-BB. He's a defensive rebounding jump-shooter so he won't be banging down low on DC. Plus a KL/CJ backcourt would match up really good defensively with Bledsoe and Knight.


Wishful thinking of course.

[The Great One]

Automatic loss.

[tDotted]

Also, this game is really going to test our three point defense. Wizards got a lot of open looks last night. Suns won't be as forgiving.. 4th in the league in threes made, 3rd in percentage.

Wishful thinking of course.

I'd prefer my line-up:


KL-CJ-DC-JJ-BB


This should be our small ball line-up (on occasion, Ross for C-Jo if we need a threat from 3.)

This team needs to keep the turnovers down this game. Phoenix will score at will if you give them to many possessions

I remembered this from last season. I still cannot believe a headcoach would say something like that especially to the public. If these guys don't come out fired up there's something wrong with them.

The main concern is the three point line. Opponents have been getting very good looks and missing, ever since the Clips game. So, two questions - do we stick with our defensive plan and does it burn us on threes? Or do we adjust to take away the three, and if we adjust, do we lose that defensive edge inside that has helped us win these past few games?

Also, can we find some semblance of team offence again. But that one is a nagging question so far.
