EZ-claps here. Suns get back on the right path. Beal drops 30+ off the bench. Dunn hits 5/5 threes.

Tuned in due to lineup change. Book and KD are still the problem overall here. Lazy passes. Stagnant offense. Too much one on one. Not finishing shots they should, not hustling to the rim. Book especialy has been garbage lately. The change needs to start from them. They need to lead the team. I actually feel like Bea's attitude has been better than both the other guys. He isn't pouting despite being benched.

Book started 0-4. Those could have bounced in :lol:

Sixers defense must be stifling for the suns to only score 16 points after 1st quarter.

Oso and Okogie need more minutes since they bring energy.

That's the thing -- these are shots that Book should / normaly makes, but at some point it only matters that he is missing them. We put our entire franchise in KD and Book's hands, and they need to stop underperforming the talent on the team. Enugh of blaming every role player -- this team should be contending and is god awful, and they have,, for 2 years, refused to cut out the lazy turnovers, rebund, or generally hustle. They continue to bitch at every missed call. Enough. Play hard and lead the guys, make your shots, earn the $50 mil you are getting paid.

We suck
SHAZAM!

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

Suns usually start slow, but they finish with vengeance. I expect a 20 point win tonight.

I like your optimism but don't find that to be realistic.

KD tries to flop and the entire team did not run back on defense

The whole team deserves to be benched :nonono:

Yeah, I’m hoping for one good half, instead this team seems to be checked out. Feels like they don’t enjoy playing with each other which shows on the court. The sooner we make a trade the better.
