Jay Triano doesn't hold players accountable on defense, this was explicitly said by Sonny Weems in an interview. He was our best defender the year we acquired him and became one of our worst the next year since he didn't need to play defense.

Just like Casey never held our players accountable on offense. Would be nice to get a coach someday who can do both lol.

I'd call a timeout and take everyone out of the game.

We should beat this team by 20 or more in theory.

Hopefully guys will show up.

After watching them beat Philadelphia I think we' re in really tough. If we don't show up right from the start we' re not going to have an easy time catching up. They can score. They are also solid defensively and playing loose.

Looking forward to Debo stepping up to the challenge and guarding Booker or Warren. No more hiding on defense.

Raps need to stop Booker or hope he’s exhausted.

BTW, Jay Triano is one of the worst coaches ever. Hope he breaks a clipboard over his bald head while the Raps thump the Suns.

Yeah that is pretty insane. He's scored 39 points 3 times in his career, and 70 once, so it's not a complete fluke. He went off.

Klay has a god awful handle even in his prime. Devin Booker much more advance than klay at 21.

"A personal day booked well in advance." - Casey on Lowry's absence from practice.
