Suns @ Kings 10/10, 7pm

This wasn't after just one game. This is his 4th year. I was his biggest fan after his rookie season and thought he could return us to the promised land. I honestly haven't seen any progress since then. Say what you will about his shot, but the one he uses in pregame warmups isnt the shot he uses in the game. He just can't get it together mentally, and if he can't do it after 4 years in the NBA, you gotta wonder if he ever will. At some point you need to give up and try to get as much as you can back for him.

I disagree. The 3rd quarter made me a believer that IT-Thornton-Reke-Cousins can not only work offensively, but be incredibly successful at doing so. Reke was doing a fantastic job at penetrating and creating for others and even added a nice 3 ball and a few other basket. He and IT were playing off each other really well and all 3 guys had a willingness to defer to Cousins.

I just don't like Thornton, IT, Reke and Cousins out there together on offense. It sounds talented, but it doesn't function all that well. Would really like to see Reke and Brooks paired together at some point in the backcourt.

I didn't watch game (heard it on radio), but after the first quarter with the old lineup of Tyreke, IT, Thornton, Thompson and Cousins, Phoenix was scoring at a 65% clip.

MT to the bench, Reke to the 2. Just try it Smart!!! Thornton and Reke dont work, and Reke is the better player. Our bench still shoots like doo doo, MT would be an awesome 6th man. We can still play both he and Reke at the same time for stretches, I just dont like us starting the game with a short "me first" lineup. Somethings gotta give, and it should be MT.

JJ should start at the 3 for us, that dude filled the stat sheet up! Could be a great pickup by GP.

I don't get why MT wouldn't want to come off the bench. He'd be able to jack up more shots since Tyreke and Cousins wouldn't be out there with him as much. In tight games he'd still play closer at the end with IT or the SF going to the bench.

How did he look? Game wasnt on for me.

i thought Robinson looked very good. knocked down a few mid range jumpers, had a couple nice takes to the basket and some nice passes. and his hustle and rebounding is awesome. i think he's going to be able to come right in on Day 1 of the season and contribute more than most people expected
