Booker’s brother going in on Suns players who’re laughing and chattin all friendly with the Wolves players.

Funny because KD and Booker were both -24.

I see this and I'm thinking... focused on what? Your shoes? Your video games? Definitely not basketball. Get your head in the game.

Focusing that Mamba mentality. That killer instinct to take over games and kill opponent’s momentum.

/s

Book probably uses an aim bot and then gets mad when he gets exposed on a stream.

[Ghost of Kleine]

Oh well. They took care of home court, I don't think we're winning the title or anything but we can go back to Phoenix and return 2-2.

Having said that I'm very disappointed by our play so far. It feels like Booker and Beal are in each other's way and KD obviously isn't the destroyer of worlds at his current age, we can't be carrying 4 shooting guards into our rotation next season if we wish to win anything. Tough decisions have to made and if it's Book that needs to go, then sadly it may be Book that has to go

By the trade deadline No later and IF not sooner as I've been saying. But definitely better than sitting on depreciating value and trying to ignore the reality of things. We have multiple weaknesses needing to be shored up! And until we find ways to do that, we'll be pretenders and not contenders.

Who here can guess Sabestar’s postgame post?

“It’s only been two games the wolves took care of business at home. Now it’s Suns turn to win their home games and tie up the series. The Wolves are more difficult than I imagined, but it’s going to be a long series I still expect Phoenix to win the series. We have more firepower. Please be patient guys it’s not over by a long shot.”

Sounds like PHNX Sports podcast with newcomer Flex in the voice. Can't listen anymore these days.

So we trading KD and Book now? If this becomes Beal's team... i'm out.

The KD hate is ridiculous when Booker is supposed to be the one "leading" this team.

Booker is just pouting because Kevin Young is not helping him hero ball.

Exactly! Booker is at least a decade younger than KD. He should be leading by example, instead all he does is pout about bad calls and doesn’t put forth the work to be “Legendary”. I’ve already stated that we can trade him I won’t care much anymore. It’s sad how great he was last postseason but playing very poorly now.

One game closer to Kolek.

We will probably trade the pick.

We do look horrible but we really have only lost two on the road which is expected of a 6 seed. They were not close at the end but were close for much of the games.

There is nothing to be positive about right now...but totally counting a talented NBA team out when down 2-0 on the road is almost like never having watched basketball.

Wolves fans are probably feeling as good as we were after being up 2-0 in the Bucks after 2, winning both by double digits, or 2-0 vs Dallas, winning the 2nd game by 20.

I don't have a lot of optimism, but this team, when you think they are playing well, play like crap suddenly and vice versa.

That's about as positive as I can get.

[SlovenianDragon]

Get a sh*t ton of young potential future stars and picks for KD, and as much as it pains me to say, Booker, as well probably. I dunno. I also think a lot of the pain this season revolves around Vogel being the absolute worst coach they could have hired for the pieces they have. There is a coach out there that can make this current team click, I just don't know who.

I think its just up to Booker... If booker wants to stay cool we keep building around him... If he wants out after we trade KD cool we go full rebuild... It sucks but either way works.

If Book stays we are probably just better without KD... Not that KD wasnt good but the whole to many chefs in the kitchen and iso ball thing blah blah... So whatever we get for KD prob makes us better than this years team...

If we trade KD and Book wants out....we trade everyone and resign Bol Bol

Bol Bol would give us a reason to tune in during the beginning of the rebuild.....

Btw i dont blame Ishbia... Hes done alot of good things... He swung for the fences and struck out....

No idea what is going to happen but something has to be done...

[BringinDaRuckus]

We will probably trade the pick.

For cash and considerations. As is tradition.

KD came to play with Booker and this is how he shows up in the playoffs?

No surprise the media just ignores him.

[SunsRback4Good]

I wish we had Siakim & TJ Mcconell instead of Beal and Eubanks. That would balance our team out perfectly.

[Puff]

Who knows, maybe Beal wants out and will rip up his no trade clause. In my world no one is safe.

I wonder if CP3, Ayton, Mikal and Cam are all watching these games together somewhere laughing going “But we were the problem huh?”

…I can just imagine this gif below on all their faces

Haha...I was just looking for a gif of CP3 laughing.

It all sounds fake and robotic.

Can't laugh too hard when they didn't even make it to the playoffs.

I do miss them though

KD carried a bad Nets team to the semis and if the sight step on the line they would have made it to ECF. Our team is 2-3 times better yet will get bounced in the first round. How does this make any sense?

Steve Nash was the head coach.

Quite frankly, Steve might suck but he would renew my interest in this team. If Minnesota bounces us in the first round, I surely hope Vogel is not our coach next year.

Jones and Vogel have to take responsibility for this mess. It is Jones Players and Vogel's offense and defense.

No Steve Nash. I wish we could get the ghost of Cotton or a younger D'Antoni type. We need to really make our offense exciting. I don't know what innovative plans you can have for an offense that hasn't been done (I guess if I did, it would have been done)...but just running and getting a shot up in 7 seconds and catching the D off guard...it's weird more teams don't do that. I can't stand this slow it down crap..holding the ball for 15 seconds with your butt in the defender, bending over. I guess as I write that, it's fitting for where we are in this series.

[SunsRback4Good]

Siakam is averaging 35ppg on the road and isn’t getting the same amount of money that KD/Booker makes. He would have been a perfect player for us moving forward.

[Calvin Klein]

It would be nice to have something to look forward too.

[Stark]

As a supporter of this team, I think for the first time i will be saying this. Blow it up. There is only one goal and that's to win a championship. There is no way this team can improve with the assets and the personnel they have to win the title. We tried and rolled the dice and it blew in our face. It was a good run and we had our fun. It could've been way more fun but unfortunately we reached the end. Our biggest and only asset is our three star players who can be way more impactful in different organizations. Unfortunately we built a mess around them and the fit is not there. It's time to trade them before they lose more of their value. Try to get some young promising players if you can (J. WillIams, Cason Wallace, Mathurin, Trey Murphy III, Herb Jones, Amen Thompson, Tari Eason, M. Mcbride, Jaime Jaquez Jr.) you know the names. Get as much as draft picks you can get, target young studs in the draft (Reed Sheppard, Clingan) and this time, build a culture. Don't take the easy way out. Get rid of James Jones, The man who doesn't believe in scouting and the draft. Invest for the future and hope for the best.

Booker to the Nets for our picks back and Cam Thomas.

How good is Cam Thomas? I know he scores a lot.

So if we did that we would have traded Booker, Bridges, CamJ, and Crowder for 36 year old KD and Cam Thomas.

Sound pretty ridiculous.

I’d rather keep Cam Thomas and the picks to be honest

This is the exact attitude that leads to a crippling gambling addiction.

When I first started gambling that was actually one of my best bets. Taking a good team that lost the first 2 on the road and are going home for game 3. In a series you thought would be close. If we go down 3-0 we have no heart.

We can't recover from a sweep.

I don't expect us to blow it up or anything but if we get swept I don't know how they could be positive running it back. At least last year we played the Nuggets tougher than anyone else and against Dallas CP3 was injured and we lost in 7.

Then after that you go ALL IN and you get swept in the 1st round?
