Tired of being mediocre season after season then losing next 3-4 years in first round & WCS. Maybe one year we make WCF with Booker but overall never the finals with book and ayton. Two finals appearances in 52 years. Lol

The extra disappointing thing about all this is that Ayton looked like **** during the entire bubble. Somewhere better than rookie year but worse than he was all throughout this season. When our team plays its best, he is not a factor. Hopefully that changes. Time to focus on offseason plans. I doubt I’ll care enough to watch much of the playoffs.

Sorrow.

Raja's three in the clippers series right after that was pretty awesome too, but I get your point.

Absolutely nothing is better than when we swept the Spurs in 2010 and Dragic torching them with 24 points in the 4th quarter of game 3

That was an intense game. Most intense Suns' game in a decade and the Suns weren't even playing. After the fact, I almost wish the Nets just played their end of bench guys and got blown out.

I certainly didn't wish for that after the turd that the Bucks laid earlier today. Major props to the Nets for rising to the occasion.

Aftert all that bubble fun ride it came down to one single *** shot...and it didn´t fall in, as always... typically for Suns life. :noway:

God, I hate to be a Suns Fan!!!

I didn't either, but losing on a missed buzzer beater is **** rough.

Lillard deserves it, Blazers don't though. Lillard to Phoenix please.

So sad !!

I beg you pardon but IMO this was the only and last chance of Booker staying in Phoenix for a long run.

Coming into the year 6 with 0 playoff experience, its painful, next year the west is going to be a murder!

9 teams this year plus:
Pelicans with sophomores Zion.
Gsw back in the playoffs
Minnesota getting Dlo.

I have to imagine a great year overall from D book to get a better record than this year.

You waste your opportunity to be a dinasty getting Ayton.

Enjoy the soft big man. :noway:

Lol... Phoenix first team ever to end the season on an 8-game win streak and not make the playoffs. These are the records the Suns get. All depressing ones.

They shouldn’t have held off until the last second. They should have scored and made the Blazers earn it.

Yes, but I'm talking about a single play in a single game that decided something big.

#1 pick incoming!!

Maybe the league will reward the Suns during the Draft Lottery with one of those frozen envelopes.

With our luck probably. No superstars in this draft

Yes, west will be tougher. This is a bad timing post....and comes off as trolling. Booker is signed for 4 more years and is happy here. Not going anywhere soon, so probably should stop the dumb rhetoric.

Agree, no reason to run out the clock like that when you’re down one.

They are gonna give the Lakers a tough battle. They are not deep, but they have 7 very good players. One of them at MVP level.

I think Dame's awesome but there is no way they give the Lakers a tough anything. Portland is not good. Dame has carried that sorry team this entire bubble. 5 of the other 6 guys have not played well. Him and Trent Jr. is it and I bet you Vegas has Lakers in 4 or 5 when the series prices come out.
