Why was the baseball game I just watched moving at a better pace than this basketball game? Good lord.
SHAZAM!

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

He doesn't look engaged at all.

I was just thinking about Payne too. I think he took a bit too much hate. He had problems and a really bad season but he played hard and had the ability to be really good at times.


He was an ~8th-9th rotation level guy but I said before the season he was one of the few real NBA level guys we had on the team last year and kind of didn't like that we just gave him away. Better player than Bol, both Lees, etc.

That Eubanks/KD/Watanabe/Gordon/Okogie lineup needed Goodwin desperately. Dunno what the **** that lineup was.

Again ultimately this PG stuff means little until Beal gets back.

But if Brogdon becomes available I'd look at going really hard for him.


Besides Mehtu we really don't have a traditional forward so we can't rebound to save our lives.

We simply have too many 3&D type players on this team.

So many missed wide open shots by 40% 3 point shooters tonight. Unreal.

All we do is run Booker or Durant isos

I miss those corner 3s or cuts from ball movement

A lack of a true PG is even more glaring in crunch time.

Book hasn't proven he can tighten his handle when pressured.

KD should donate $1 million for every mid range shot he misses. Either go all the way to the rim or shoot the 3.

Didn’t Booker just get whacked on that rebound?

Stupid pass by GA there. You do not hit Okogie in the corner. You just take a tough shot. Bad play.
