The suns inability to challenge the 3pt shooters is terrible

One good screen, and the Suns defense completely falls apart.Open 3's & lay ups galore.

Not even that. Their inability to seemingly challenge ANY shooter is just deplorable. We are guaranteed to let a team shoot themselves back into any contest as it's become a regular occurrence. Typical fourth quarter failings.

Combined with Durant and Booker’s love of going to iso ball in the 4th it is a cocktail for disaster.

No doubt. Should their ability to draw fouls suddenly dry up, we're in trouble.

So i just want to say i can not stand EG. He needs to be traded.... He does nothing well besides score "SOMETIMES" dude doesnt play defense, over dribbles the ball, and looks like the only one out of the loop...like he only cares about himself and not the team. Just watching him play is so ugly.... Trade him...

Just 6 TOs against a Top team defense in the league. Impressive, we are getting better and better with every game.

Nice win to end the year. We’ll need much better bench production against better teams but tough to ask for much because we’re such a top heavy team as well.
Good to see the big 3 mostly in synch for the entire game. Hopefully they take care of business tomorrow against the Blazers.
Happy New Year guys.

starting five can score a lot, no issues there, however, bench is a huge issue
i dont know if they can, but adding another guy who can score 10 on any given night would be huge
whether team has defensively capable players or not, it all starts with effort and thats something every player can give

Yeah, that was the most impressive thing about the Suns play in this game.

The Magic didn't double teamed our Big 3 so they could score easily on this one and they got less assists to our role players. All three scored +20.
Teams are picking their poison. Our bench is fine.

I was about to say he's a little cancer in the team. If he doesn't get his shots he sulks and does nothing defense. BTW Metu SUCKS on defense

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

EG is the new Ayton to me...
Plays zero defense...sulks around the court....doesnt give the effort to hustle or grab a rebound...
Even the games he gets hot its not like he provides anything else but scoring....
Real lame dude this EG guy is.

Is Nurk officially a part of Big 4 ?
He's adding another dimension to the offense. Between him and Allen we definitely have another superstar player with 25/15/6.
Happy new year!
