Somebody said this is the team version of Deandre Ayton and I think it's the perfect take.

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

It's all about TOs. Too many of them in the 3rd quarter. Easy points for them.

Yeah, FINALLY!


6 was his most ever? That seems kind of weird. Didn't he have like 5 in the first quarter tonight?

He was stuck on 6, hit it a bunch of times but could never get more. This is regular season. In the playoffs he's had 8 made 3s.

Speaking of DA, he took the final shot against the Magic being down 1. Haven't watched the replay yet...

didn't know he had had 8 in a playoff game. Then the whole never made more than 6 becomes pretty stupid. :banghead:

Game 6 against the Lakers in 2021, 113-100. Booker had 47 points. Second leading scorer was Jae Crowder with 18, and then Bridges had 10. Ridiculous to think that team won more games this this current Suns team IMO. And I'm not saying that as a slight to the 2021 Suns. Was probably my favorite Suns team ever during the Booker-era (so far hopefully). This current Suns team just has so much talent it's insane that we are struggling to string together some wins.

What would this prove? :lol:
Dude is always high. I'm pretty sure he smokes before the game, probably at halftime too. Maybe during timeouts. :lol:

Everytime that they talk about records, stats and all of that is about Regular Season. There are separate stats in the playoffs. It has always being like that.
