Kelly and Young would be good too, if they come cheap... |
Kelly is already locked in for a cheap contract, so I didn't feel the need to mention him. Nick is in with the rest, nice to keep for the right price. |

| Nice win today. Suns looked completely outmatched, especially since they were ice cold shooting wide open shots in the first half. Second half, the Lakers d looked pretty good as Bledsoe especially could do nothing right, on either end. Fun win. Now for more Infamous. |

Is he locked in? Can't someone offer him more? |

I believe we signed him to a two year contract with a team option. |

| I could stare at Kelly Tennant's legs all day long. Jamie and Kelly instead of scary skeleton girl this season. If we weren't so (bleep) as a basketball team, I'd be in heaven. |

| What would've happened if we played Kaman instead of Sacre this entire season? I'm going to say at least 5 more wins. |

My thoughts from the game:
Kendall Marshall looks a lot taller and quicker in person. If it was my first game seeing him, I would think he was a very good pull-up shooter and finisher around the basket. He was also very good at pushing off and stiff arming his defender like a running back and it made it very difficult to defend him. The Suns complained about it all game. I don't recall him doing it before but if this is a new thing he can get away with, his game should improve.
Chris Kaman is pretty much unstoppable when he gets the ball close to the basket.
The Suns looked out of the game from the start, missing open shots, not hustling, not forcing turnovers, not rotating well on defense. They seemed to be placing most of the blame on the refs but that was the least of the issues even though the refs did seem awfully kind today. Wiping out an obvious goaltending call just because the fans complained was exceptionally hilarious, I don't think I've ever seen that. |

Kaman is not unstoppable. What you're seeing is just today's nba. A team like Phoenix plays 24/7 small. When they play against a center with actual skills, that center can just go to town with his small opponents.
There's hardly any centers left in the NBA. Kaman, Jefferson, Bynum... that's pretty much it. So Phoenix can get away with it a lot.
But what you saw today was the effects of an old school big against today's small ball gimmicks.
Shaq would be a 40/20 guy in today's pansy game.

THere is no link possible with Kaman laying on the bench.
People remember the picture but not more. In that game, he played. It's not like he was stuck on the bench. But even when you play you go on the bench sometimes. Him laying on the bench never was to say "I'm AGAIN on the bench" but a joke because there was so much room with so much injured. |

He plays in today's NBA, he doesn't get to pick his opponents. The good defensive centers of the past would have stopped Kaman from getting that deep position as often but the fact still remains, he's unstoppable when he gets it. |
