Jdiddy: Nowhere to be seen after calling us out that Phoenix is fine just need more time to gel. At least Saber posts unlike “J” who disappeared into thin air.

It's what it is, we are playing really bad in the third quarter and we can't buy a 3p shot.

4/15 Suns
11/26 Wolves

The difference is huge and they are dominating every aspect of the game tonight.


Suns have no heart it’s pretty embarrassing. They’re about to be swept by the friggin twolves. :(

So the usual for a season with one game left.

I mean, for a good rebounder he can't rebound AT ALL out if his area and we have lost some easy defensive boards because he can't move his feet.

Offensively he can't finish and they are denieing every pass from him to cutters.


Sounds like Suns can make use of someone that has rebounds bounce to his hands and finishes around 60% of his shots.


Most of the Suns fans and media wanted a nice scapegoat for our failures but yeah this is really the worst version of Nurkic.

Slow, unathletic and can't shoot to save his life and he can't guard anyone on the perimeter due to his slow feet.

Instead of trying to incorporate DA into the offense we ship him out for inferior talent which kind of speaks to the lack of patience and maturity on the part of the front office and players.

It's crazy how literally all the issues present in week one of the season are STILL glaring issues. Talked all season about shooting more 3s, about playing with more effort, about defending the 3 point line, just crazy doing the same **** still.

Who will you be rooting for in the playoffs going forward?

What about in the next 5-8 years until we get our team back?

Look at Beal laughing and smiling out there. So unserious. Disgusting.

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Yep.

Every single fear we had about the moves done to make this roster have turned to reality. Every single one.

Missing wide open shots is just unacceptable for an NBA playoff team with 3 players making 150 million dollars a season.

We are taking the most inefficient shot with the mid-range jumper. I mentioned it after Game 2. Suns are dead last in 3PA's per game in the playoffs by a wide margin. It is absolutely embarrassing.
