This is why Denver traded him.

LOL. What can you say about this dumb play. Low IQ stuff.

You can only have so many turnovers.

Suns were matching them earlier, but if the other team stops and you keep going, well....

Clippers have 5 more turnovers now

Yea, that was part of it, he definitely has learning to do.

Off to the gym, Can only take so many dumb turnovers

We're competing but its just way too many turnovers to put something together. Russ stop trying to get the center involved. It hasn't worked not once in this first half

I just wanna keep this close so KD, Book and old man Paul play near 40 min

Not too mad at this as we need somebody to get aggressive and score. Plus its a youngster getting valuable time on the floor. Russ' turnovers is what's really killing the team

Powell is the guy for tonight

Bones was bringing up the ball and calling clear out iso, that's not what the team needs from him

i think this might be the normal power game we've all been waiting for

Everyone ELSE getting to see what this team is capable of; while they're all surprised and crap...

Not a bad half at all considering the circumstances... cut down on the TOs and go from there, keep it close to give a good chance to win it.

And he'll be back... no one will know until its check-in time on Sat.

Unfortunately a Bones explosion might be our only ticket to an upset tonight. Norm has been awesome but he can't do it all.

I agree to a certain extent but one or two guys have to step out the box and play that alpha role tonight if we're trying to stay in this game. Norm is one of them and there needs to be one or two others. Mann, Zu, Batum, Gordon, etc. aren't putting up much points in this series so far. Even Russ is struggling out there with shots and turnovers. Not to mention Bones isn't doing this if our team is fully healthy. I say go for it. Maybe this turns into something for us down the line

This is one of the most rigged games I've ever seen in my life. The Suns should be ashamed.

The High Cyde · Post #77 » by **The High Cyde** » Fri Apr 21, 2023 4:00 am

Gotta stop fouling, it gives the Suns time to rest and get points on the board. Turnovers need to go down as well. Also need a billion dollars but I’ll settle for the first two

Refs wow hahaha

Suns have 7 more FTs made than we have attempted.

Captain Ballmer · Post #80 » by **Captain Ballmer** » Fri Apr 21, 2023 4:19 am

Game is going to a direction of just a basket or two away from complete blowout by Suns. in q4, just rest Powell-Russ for game 4. Kawhi should not be the only one has that privilege atm.
