Ayton trade weakened our front court ! Dude was a great 4th option.

Also Beal is always hurt and low efficiency. Going to be a tough fit on this team

Go get a real Center and McConnell

Sad but true ! I’ll keep posting like I have been ! Been here longer than you. I believe my first post was about 10 years ago


Might want to check the registration dates again lol. Unless you're a banned account or duplicate account which you might be


He DEFINITELY is a secondary account. I've also seen his IG - what a clown show. All he does is bicker everywhere he can on socials.


Dang ! Stalking me ! Nah. I just laugh at the people who continue to cry about Ayton.

Aytons team is 2-3 with no superstars and a crap coach !

Suns were in the bonus with 5 minutes left to go and then settled for jumpers. They took the ball out of Book’s hand, too. I didn’t understand that. He led the charge and then go away from him?

The defense tonight was embarrassing - off a made Suns basket, the Spurs continued to get quick layups and wide open shots.

Tonight was a terrible loss for sure. Saturday’s game will be tough. Hopefully we get Beal back soon.

But what's not a facade is Wembayama, he is just ridiculous and it sucks he's in the West. Once Spurs get better pieces around him they'll be legit anytime he's healthy

Wemby on the floor changed everything. I thought he took a ton of bad shots but they went in so hats off to him. I’m still pissed of all teams, the Spurs get him. I was hoping a team in the East was rewarded the top pick.

I may have to eat my words about Wemby soon. Not of a fan of these bean poles like he and Chet over a grueling 82 games season - but man he was cooking tonight.

We've lots of firepower... but where's the defense? I thought that was Vogel's calling card? It's time Okogie is pulled from the starting rotation and we try someone else. Be that KBD, Watanabe, or whoever... it's already time to admit he's a liability on offense and his defense isn't carrying us.

I’m grown up and talking about Ayton not being some scrub lol and you keep bringing the talks back ! I’ll get the last word homie .

Beal is going to piss y’all off
Nurkic is going to piss y’all off

Suns need to get a center who can play defense and rebound . Also need a PG who can run the offense

Yeah, I’m not worried one bit. Tonight was ugly. Spurs got a lot of bounces their way tonight. The Suns will figure it out. I’m not worried about the PG situation. Booker continues to show he can do that.

What I am keeping an eye out is Nurk. Watching him defend the paint was very DA-like tonight. Guys kept getting lay ups right in front of him. It was tough to watch.

Center suns need to get instead of Nurkic

Jarrett Allen or Jonas V

Doubt it’s possible but that’s a better fit

Go get McConnel as well

You continue to be positive meanwhile the Suns trade their entire team in a couple years. How long are you willing to stay possible until you realize that our team will never win a title and will continue to make dumb mistakes? It’s been 55 years and the mistakes keep piling on yet nobody wants to address it instead look at the positives and hope for the best.

I didn't like the trade then. I don't need to see how he plays on our team.


Beal will eat on this team. I agree with a lot of both of you have to say usually. You're wrong here. Once he's in, Beal will gorge. Easiest baskets of his life-including his high school years lol.

I'm remain unworried and unbothered by these 1st few games. None of these dudes have hooped together before and we're still waiting on the full team.

Wemby will be good.....that's all I took from this game.

Very disappointing game. Pop really made Wemby a weapon. Even when Wemby wasn't having a great first half, he was enough of a decoy/distraction to warp out entire defense.

I believe this is also the first game since even the preseason we've been outrebounded. Our defensive rotations were terrible tonight as well. So many dudes getting behind our defense, weak contests and just overall a step slow.

We gotta regroup and do better

Onto the next

I’m not a negative person like a majority of people are here. I also know the NBA season is not decided 5 games into the season. You guys need to have patience.

Uh oh. Please remind me which of these two teams is a lottery team and which a title contender.

Return to Phoenix Suns
