Suns (1-3) @ Bobcats (1-1) - 3rd Game Preview Thread

Our 3rd game of the regualr season is against the new look Phoenix Suns who have started 1-3 so far this campaign.

With Hendo being injured i would expect Gordon to start which should give more playing time to MKG !. MKG has made a solid start to his NBA career showing us his all round skills on offense and especially defense, he has 5 steals and 3 blocks in 2 games !.

The Suns defense are conceding over 103 PPG so far this season so we should be confident of scoring points, its just weather we can defend like we did against the Pacers ?

I think we have a decent shot tomorrow night.. like you said, it will depend a lot on the play of the defense. I also think Gordon having starters mins might prove to be fruitful for us scoring-wise.

i think Gordon kemba and MKG have big nights and we get the W

Gordon to space the floor, thus taking some of the load/pressure off Mulens if his shot isn't falling and giving MKG & Kemba more space to drive into!

But as you say SJackson1, in the end we have to play well on Defence. Hold them under 100 points, while scoring over 100 ourselves!

Per Bonnell the Suns give up the 3 but Gortat leads the league in blocks. Gordon need to bring his A game and hopefully our drivers recognize their strength. Hopefully the outsides shot fall tonight. We're due right?

I hope Dunlap starts Gordon and not Sessions. I like Kemba at the point and Gordon hitting the three's.

Looks like I have two extra tickets for tonight. If anybody wants them pm me. They're free and pretty good seats (section 103). I have actual printouts as they were a gift. I'll meet you before the game and give them to you. You'll have to sit next to me and my buddy, though. :)

I'll check my messages before I get off work today.

MKG will benefit from us spreading the floor becasue he will get more space to go to the basket.

Sounds like Sessions, Taylor, or Carroll will start (there are conflicting reports, but no Gordon).

Jeff Taylor to start at SG !
