You see Phily ? Okey officials was terrible , but energy from Cameron Payne give him W. That’s is talking about before. One of our guys must take the same level energy to help our BIG Three

Yes, and the Bucks and Mavs more recently.


Maybe Suns can come back once in their lifetime being down 0-2 huh?


Btw, are you satisfied with receiving Joe Alt? He’s an elite run blocker and good pass protector. Justin Herbert should have more time in the pocket to make passes without constantly rushing to throw the ball.

If only we had one of those guys. Everyone on our team is a cupcake who don’t know how to rally the team with a nice speech. I’d kill to be in their locker rom and see what gets said prior to game time, who exactly is trying to give inspiring speeches cause if it’s Booker/KD/Eubanks we are F———-

Yes, I would have been happy with him or Nabers. Domninant lines make everything easier for everyone. They definitely need to get a WR (or 2) somewhere though. But they have defensive needs and Harbaugh is said to really like the RB he coached at MIchigan, Corrum, who I think is rated as the #2 RB in the draft. I'm not sure I want them to take him since they signed Edwards who I like, but if they do, they shouldn't before the 3rd round. A lot of Chargers fans are pissed they didn't take Nabers, but if Herbert doesn't have time in the pocket, it doesn't matter how good your receivers are, especially if you also don't have a running game because of your OL because defenses know they can focus on the pass. Harbaugh has been very successful everywhere so I trust on the way he wants to build this team.

No.


What about the Suns/ flakers series under Paul Westphal? Weren't we down 0-2 in that series before his famous postgame statement:

Granted, this team is nothing like that team because that team actually had fire, intensity, passion and grit. This team looks like it's just going through the motions and could care less about the season or the playoffs.

Looks like all or most of the playoffs are streaming through HBO. In case anyone is like me and has that but not espn/tnt.

Relax, we've got Jalen Smith instead! Oh wait... we traded him. It's okay, traded for Torrey Smith and... he's gone.

At the very least, I'm glad the Kings traded Haliburton for Sabonis and that the Kings didn't even make the playoffs. Those fans are probably more pissed than us. Also... having Haliburton in the East makes it easier to cope with.

Everytime the suns played faster this season, good things happened.

Would argue this is kinda significant if Phoenix wants to turn the series around

Could have fooled me if you had said the Suns were -27 with those 3 in at the same time.
I wonder what they are with Grayson Allen added to it.

Most season ticket holders end up selling their playoff tickets for a huge gain. They end up selling to opposing team fans or to the rich older folks who live in Paradise Valley or Scottsdale. These are the fans that do the two-finger golf clap instead of being loud.

Then again, Suns don't need fans to be loud...
