I had a good run during our winning streak, so I will try to bless us with luck tonight.

The Suns are decimated by injuries. We at least have our full squad outside of KD. If we lose tonight, I give up.

It's really bad that this team can't step up in KD's absence. It's embarrassing really.

You win some you should lose. You lose some you should win. No matter what happens, I'm going to remain undaunted. Let's go Amerks! Knock 'em dead.

Don't hold your breath for few weeks. Even when KD comes back there will be questions to be asked.

We better hope Ben and TJ healthy.

It is no secret that our backs are against the wall. This is a game we have to win or else things are going to go sideways fast. It won't be easy, even with the Suns bitten hard by the injury bug. It is still an away game and these are NBA professional players. We need four solid quarters and a win desperately.

Kyrie looking awful yet again, I'd rather have Cam out there instead if this is what he's going to provide.

We need this one badly, can't afford 4 traight losses.

So they actually run some early plays for Harris to get him going, he goes 2 for 2 & then gets yanked after about 4.5 minutes. Vaughn is exposed without KD.

Speaking of exposed without KD. Kyrie is awful again.

BS. He was forced to give in to the whims of his stars. Kenny should have never been allowed to be pushed out. They've gone player friendly since. He's built a team of role players that excel around KD. The issue is KD's flakey little buddy. He's not a winning player.

This is insanity WTF is going on. There is zero continuity

This might be the worst performance of the year top to bottom so far. Letting Phoenix score like this is just embarrassing.

Kyrie man. I don't even know. It's one thing to not be a superstar when KD is out. The guy has been awful.

yeah, thats not true. Its been reported that Nash was a Marks/Tsai hire, they had been scouting him beforehand and spent months trying to convince him to try coaching the Nets. They both have a relationship with him outside of Basketball.The man didn't even want to coach a team until the FO begged him. The stars asking for him is just a rumour started.

The roster construction is still trash and has been for 2 years now. Marks hasn't been getting good players to make a legit championship run.

Disappointing game yet again, JV's rotations are all out of whack now that KD is out. We had a nice little rhythm going during the win streak where the rotations were relatively stable and guys knew what their role was when they were in, now it's completely out of whack again and we are playing like headless chickens on both ends. Only guys like Cam can thrive in this kind of system since he just plays 1v1 ball anyway.

Yeah, I think it’s best that I step away from this team for awhile. Watching them struggle with a team that has 1 win in their last 10 games is beyond pathetic and this chit is not good for my mental. This is a sad state of affairs and you are a better fan than me to endure such misery.

We looking like a bunch of one and done shooters and we missing most of them , I seriously start doubting Vaughn after this hot start

Irving is playing like crap. No d and no offensive sets pathetic

Physical big men have been a problem with this team since literally day one (vs Zion/JV from the Pelicans)

And the FO did... nothing. And they will continue to do nothing.
