I wonder what their excuse is for not getting back on defense? That's the first thing that went wrong tonight--and it's been going wrong all season.

That doesn't take talent. It doesn't rely on scheme. Any team can be a decent transition defense if they want to.

This team doesn't seem to have any desire. They just don't get that they have to play hard, hungry basketball all the time.

I think it's pretty clear that this isn't gonna work. We can't build with these pieces and no draft capital, either. We're going to have to blow it up completely to even compete in the next several years.

I feel like they sold us a bill of goods once again. Promising a contending team, looking willing to spend to get it, then giving us less than a .500 product at home. But hey, after 2 blowout home playoff losses, at least they could sell the season tickets, right? Even jack up the prices further in this era of price gouging.

Cynical? Maybe. Maybe.

Yeah, I'm done. Another L and still no true PG to save this team.

Meh this team is who they are until they show otherwise. We still haven't shown on a consistent basis that we are great at any one aspect of the game


In current form it's a mediocre play-in/first round flameout level team. Roster changes are needed but I doubt we can get it done at the deadline

[sashaturiaf]

I'm sure I'll catch hell for this, but is it such a terrible idea to wonder just what we might be able to get for Booker?

I posted a Booker trade on the trade board a few days ago to address our unbalanced roster. Unfortunately Book is the only one of the big 3 that can get a significant haul back

Booker for Mikal, Finney Smith, Sharpe and half our picks back from the Nets. Maybe throw in Cam Thomas too.

Challenge for the stats guys: 40 games so far. In how many of those games have the Suns given up a 60 point half?

Just went through every single first half game and the total # is @ 12 games in which Suns allow at least 60+ points by halftime.

Thanks! I meant 60+ in either half, tho. Can you come up with that number? Sorry to be picky haha. Just curious and I'm too tired tonight to do the math myself.

I thought we were supposed to be a juggernaut team on offense? If so, why are we not in top 10 in offense? We’d be top 4 in west if we were top 5 in offense. I just feel numb watching our team play it’s not fun.

Oh!! I thought you wrote first half. My brain will hurt but I’ll try to deliver.

KD sure does love that Nurk pick n roll lol.

Not a true fan, figures.



















Yeah, I’m pretty much done too.

Lets just end this charade and go ISO everytime down…. Beats pounding the S out of the ball to end up with a contested shot at the 22 second mark

[sunskerr]

we just give them the ball for free i dont understand why we bothered showing up tonight

[King4Day]

Like I said. Make a push. Cut to 14. Give up run.

[Maze]

This team can never string together more than two good possessions in a row.Two is their max.They go back to falling apart after that.

Those ticket prices will be going down very quickly in the next couple of seasons if we do blow it up.

What are our chances of reaching the WCF this season?

[SunsRback4Good]

See good things happen when you can get multiple stops. We were down by 20 and now trimmed deficit down to 12.

[Sunlight]

Best win this season is against Wolves and they had a back to back game after a tough away trip. Which usually means a blowout whoever against. As I have stated, Booker should primarily be traded as soon as possible so that there is maybe something exciting about the draft in the next five years. If this time new Doncic landed. A real superstar.

[SunsRback4Good]

I feel numb watching this team

You guys are out of your minds. If this goes terribly wrong, then KD is the one leaving. He's got massive value, unless you're naive enough to think that all of a sudden his value has to 0.00 in the year we've had him?
