This team has a lot of hustle but little talent.
I am such a lucky NBA fan. 8647 My favorite team went from the most greedy and racist owner to the most ego driven dumbass owner in all of sports fdt.

They're showing that on every possession. Man, this season is going to get ugly.

Booker in PG role 3 TOs and 0 assists for worst +/- so far. Scoring also suffers when put in this role.

Oh, there’s going to be plenty of those types of games. Especially since KD & Beal are gone, Brooks gonna have a green light on shot. What is even worse is we haven’t seen Jalen Green yet taking a million of shots.

What’s you alls impression of Hayes-Davis? Not thinking his game is translating to the NBA.

I know it’s still early, but if we struggling to beat the Sacramento Kings, imagine other teams we would face? I cant see us winning 35 games this season if we struggle against non playoff teams.

Taking Dunn out killed our energy on D. Also think the brickfest that was Dillon Brooks trying to take over the game sucked all momentum out of this team. Now the bottom appears to have fallen out.

We should absolutely be beating this severely undermanned team. Highly concerned right now.

If we're going to be bad then at least play the rookies to give them a chance to develop.

I don't want to see Brooks, Royce and the rest of the team jacking up ill advised shots...

I mean this is kinda expected. Point Book has always failed. Ownership felt it can work regardless of prior evidence to the contrary.

It's early but he's sucked. Seems too nonchalant. But at least he's not trying to win the MVP like Dillon Brooks.

5 minutes in?
SHAZAM!

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

Anyone else disgusted already? I'm about ready to stop watching and just go aggravate myself with Battlefield 6.

Suns look like vomit, but the refs are reffing like this is a Kings home game.

Isn't he just like Royce?

Good 3pt shooter but not much else? It seems like even with a new owner and a new GM this team has trouble stacking this team with athletic power forwards.

We had good momentum and then this happened.

I don't want the early Memphis Dillon Brooks who bricked a season away by refusing to give the ball to Ja in crunch time. Dillon better be staying in his role and not trying to become a large offensive cog. That will doom us

What are you gonna do when the team is shooting 10 for 32 and 0 for 8 from three. We knew we were going to be short on offensive talent
