Man that Nowell drive was a thing of beauty.

Phx just doesn't miss much.

I will greatly relish the next time we play an NBA team that has a bad shooting night, hopefully, it happens again in my lifetime.

Suns have pretty much run the same 2 plays through out the match and the defense still hasn't adjusted...they cannot avoid overhelping..like jeez make some adjustments. The team played well offensively but the defense has been exposed whenever they go up against a team that has great passers. Doesn't help that some of the opposition teams can't miss from 3 recently

We should change our name to the Minnesota SlumpBusters.

Needed Towns tonight to show up missing DLo and he looked out of it from jump. Everyone outside of Vando was sleeping on defense, or at best giving single efforts.

Yeah KAT's been poor defensively and has taken some questionable shots, very disappointing from him tonight.

KAT not even getting back tonight.

Just not our night tonight. Phx is well coached and they make shots. Bleep!

I really hope Towns wont get in the ASG. give me Ant instead.

Perfect example Of how a towns trade is addition by subtraction.
A high efficiency guy, who requires less shots to get approx. 20 ppg, leaves more shots/touches for Ant and DLO, who make much better decisions with the ball.

I personally hate how much some of these guys gamble for o boards. Some of these KAT O board attempts were so late.

I've only watched a little bit but Towns was absolute **** on defense.

He's also out of control when he crashes the offensive glass so then he's always behind the play and we have to defend 4 on 5.

This game has sucked but we should be getting killed by 20+ I'm still somewhat encouraged that we are in this. Defense has been bad and our inability to hit open shots has killed us but this team is close, we just need some more pieces, hopefully, we can bring oe or two in at the deadline that can push us forward.

This sucks but I still feel optimistic. We can be better.

If ant can be put Kobe. Then we need Pau Gasol. That guy seems like Sabonis. DLo is D. Fish like. Vando is Rodman lite. We need our big shot bob, maybe nowell. More vets who can shoot and be smart.

We were never going far this year, let’s turn up the volume and start making this Ant’s team.
Ant needs to work on consistency, but even on a bad night last night, he still scores 27 and stays engaged. Tonight 27pts, 10ast, 1 turn over.

He’s getting there. Year three will surpass Ja morants year 3 jump.
