This game? Think he's been consistent all year.

I feel as though Wood has had a good season considering the circumstances (probably expected to start and get more playing time, instead it feels like the team tried to trade him away).

The blueprint to beating the Suns this year is going to be letting KD and Booker go off and stay at home on everyone else. I don’t care if they score 50 apiece. Stay at home on perimeter shooters, including Chris Paul.

Edit: What did I tell you? They’re lucky Paul didn’t hit that shot.

Powell OMG. We need Wood for some rebounds...

Well we all know the play but who's taking the shot?

Booker is an absolute moron. Luka would knock his block off.

It would be so nice to have someone who's not 6'5 on Durant...

What a clown is Booker

I thought McGee was brought in for interior defense and rebounding and he can’t even crack the rotation.

Hard to believe that Doncic missed such and easy shot.

It’s always better to bank in close shots.

Disappointing game. It felt like the Mavs would have lost this game by a lot given how Luka looked and even Kyrie was off kilter.

So many close games blown away. This one with the double offensive rebound and then somehow Luka missing that.

The Suns got that random guy to hit four three pointers... probably won them the game.

Game sucked to watch.

This team has had some brutal losses recently. Two, three, and four point losses all over the place.

Woods being limited in his role has been odd all season.

Gotta give Bullock some credit, he tried really hard, too bad it was Doncic who **** the bed this time.

I'm going to embrace homer's mentality today.

The fact that we were able to keep the game close, this game should be considered as a W. :lol:

The sky is the limit from this point. :roll:

You cannot allow the Suns role players to beat you. That one guy is a player I’ve never heard of and he hit three or four threes and could have hit more. They gave him and Paul too many wide open shots. You have to play everyone straight up and if KD and Booker kill you in the midrange then so be it. I’d rather have KD hitting midrange jumpers than their role players taking wide open threes.

No one should be afraid of Phoenix in the playoffs. Defense and depth are major issues.

Luka had a good game today since the refs allowed him to get whistles.

I hope one day he can mature his games more so that he can be as lethal without getting that many calls.

In fairness, Okogie who had a great run before this game... missed everything. He was wide open all game...

Mavs did the same to this guy.

Hell, Mavs also left Paul wide open a few times. :lol:
