  1. Ott ist nicht die Erfolgsgeschichte. Aus den Latschen kippe ich bei Ott erst, wenn sein Frontcourt anfängt als Powerhouse zu wirken. Ganz konkret: Scoring. Ich will jeden Abend 60 Punkte in Korbnähe sehen. Allen hat seinen Wert für die Suns unterstrichen. Gillespie ist die Entdeckung der Saison. Verlängern zu fairen Konditionen. 10+. Ich bin der Meinung, dass die Suns im Sommer nochmal auf der Powerforward-Position nachlegen müssen. Was mich auch freuen würde: Eine gute Lastenverteilung. Gegen LA kamen wir nur durch Allen wieder zurück. Wir sind weiterhin in dem Trott und haben es schwer zu Punkten zu kommen. Green war mit 1/7 3P wieder ein Ausfall. Warum lässt Ott ihn auch immer wieder werfen? Green ist genauso athletisch wie Booker. Warum zieht er nicht zum Korb und wirft aus der Mitteldistanz? Kobe Bryant und Michael Jordan haben immer so gepunktet. Ich verstehe es nicht. Und Dunn muss sich taktisch schulen lassen. Freiräume erkennen und am Korb abschließen geht ihm völlig ab. Dabei wäre er dafür prädestiniert, weil ja immer ein Guard den Ball hat und leider auch zu wenig die beiden Center findet. Es betrifft halt den gesamten Frontcourt und die Shotcreation des Frontcourts. Da wartet man noch auf den Durchbruch. Taktisch wird Ott diese Saison bestimmt nicht mehr viel verändern. Ich hoffe auf Platz 6 und auf die Fitness von Booker, Brooks, Highsmith und Goodwin. Womöglich kann man dann in den Playoffs überraschen.

  2. Ben, watch Green. He will slash to the basket and all of the Suns are standing around and not cutting to the hoop. Hardly any plays are getting called.

  3. I knew Colin was gonna be good just from last season I wasn’t as surprised as everyone else to be honest, Jordan Ott was a nice hire , Grayson to start of season was incredible but then he got injured then started playing inconsistent ball then keeps getting injured, to me Jordan Goodwin is the success story he was waived by lakers competed for that final spot on team and showed up all season nothing like the Jordan Goodwin we knew before. Best of all it made laker fans pissed off at their management for letting him go.. yup Goodwin wins it .

  4. I'll admit it, I was bitching that we needed a PG at the start of the season, was dreading Point Book again.
    Gillespie saw that spot and took it, I couldn't be happier.
    Pay that kid.
    Also with our injury problems I'd like to get a better look at Flemming.

  5. developing a player like man man is so important for the future of this team. to get past the spurs in the future, well need a matchup for wemby. without him, itll be just like ayton vs giannis all over again. or even tim duncan from the dantoni days
