**Wade County** · 10-10-2012, 07:39 PM

Beas with 10 in the first quarter. 3 turnovers though.

**Dissonance** · 10-10-2012, 08:03 PM

Haven't been able to watch. None of the streams have the game, just NBATV stuff - even though it says it's supposed to be on there.

46-44 Kings with 2:36 left in half.

Bease also has 2 assts, no rebounds, and stl.

chilltown · 10-10-2012, 08:12 PM

Wes Johnson with 11 points at halftime. Nothing else though, and he is 4-8 from the field (1-5 from 3).

**Dissonance** · 10-10-2012, 09:07 PM

87-77, Kings with over 7 to play. Got a link from chill but finally got a chance to start watching.

Then an quick outburst makes it 92-77 as I typed that. Smh.

l0st1 · 10-11-2012, 12:04 PM

I'll be going to the game tomorrow night. Atleast I hope I will, that's the game that ticketmaster screwed up and sent me tickets to. Hopefully they are valid and work ha.

**Dissonance** · 10-12-2012, 09:54 PM

Wonder if lost saw it or not, Suns won 104-93

Wes 12pts/6 rebs/2 stls

Dragic 8/9/5

l0st1 · 10-17-2012, 02:23 PM

Ya.

Suns had some good moments. I am starting to like Wes' game. He has played pretty well so far. I like Beasley so far, though I'd like to see him hit the boards a bit more. And he made some pretty nice passes during the Blazers game. Marshalls court vision is overrated and his shooting is as bad as advertised.

Dragic and Gortat need a bit more practice on their timing. But all in all I actually like this team. And I think we should keep Solomon Jones(SP?) he is a big body and blocked a couple shots in his limited time. Didn't get to see JO though

**RollWithEm** · 10-17-2012, 02:38 PM

Wes Johnson looks fluid playing basketball. He always has. It's not his skills. It's his inconsistency that's his downfall.

**Wade County** · 10-17-2012, 03:15 PM

It's been an NBA long thing with Beas that he doesn't hit the boards hard enough. For some reason it's even worse as a SF than a PF.

l0st1 · 10-18-2012, 12:56 PM

Ya I know Wes hasn't been consistent. But from what I can tell he's been pretty consistent so far through training camp/preseason. Not that that carries much weight. We will have to see what he does in the regular season.

I'm not expecting huge rebounding numbers from Beas, despite his number in college he's never been a good rebounder. But 4-5 is pretty weak for someone of his ability. Seems like he's starting to get his stuff together hopefully that continues and he can start to realize some of that potential.

**Seuss** · 10-18-2012, 03:40 PM

They're looking pretty good so far.

**Wade County** · 10-18-2012, 04:06 PM

Suns could be one of those sneaky good teams. The starting 5 is pretty solid, although I think you need to draft/acquire a decent 2 guard

**Seuss** · 10-27-2012, 10:35 AM

Beasley helps defeat the Nuggets with 29pts, 10rebs. He is definitely the Suns go-to guy and I think he will have a lot of success in that role.

**Dissonance** · 10-27-2012, 10:37 AM

Finally, stepped up scoring and rebounding. He's been looking to pass previously. Looking forward to this season - even if we lose a ton of games. It'll be interesting.
