Suns best shot at the playoffs this year is getting us in the first round. They get anyone else they will get cooked, against us they play like another team.

If OKC wins #1, I think it goes to Mark Daigneault.
Good point. I agree.
Not a good start. Where is the defense?
11 turnovers?
It's like we're not taking the game seriously.

Naz cannot guard anyone of their shooter, why are we playing Towns, Naz, and KA against their big 3? We need to go small.

Re: Game 82: Suns at Wolves (WE MADE IT!)
How on earth do you make 10 turnovers in one quarter?
This is why we can't have nice things.
We are getting smoked on the perimeter and Finch's solution is to stick all 3 bigs out there.
This is already a loss.
We are garbage.
Worst fears of KAT coming back effing up the defense and chemistry confirmed.
New Orleans please help us we are dead meat in the first round against phoenix.

Re: Game 82: Suns at Wolves (WE MADE IT!)
This was always the concern with playing Naz/KAT at PF. You get matched up with a PF that can guard them well but KAT/NAZ have no shot. We give the assignment to Jaden but we still have KAT trying to chase around the best shooter in the league on the perimeter.
That doesn’t explain the turnover problems though. Just a disaster of an effort so far.

Oh my god that was an awful offensive foul call against Gobert after blatantly missed over and back.
Brand Managers are absolutely not going to leave any chance Kevin Durant misses the playoffs.

Phoenix absolutely smoked us without KAT too. They just have our number regardless.

Lakers up 13 on Pelicans. Phoenix round one looking more and more likely.
Eff this team.
Why can't we ever have nice things.

The Suns just have some crazy ability to shut us down. I don't know how they are doing but they are locking Ant down completely and they have stopped all offense from Towns and Rudy too.

Can we fire Finch before the playoffs? How is it possible to have a team play like this on such an important game. 16 turn overs and we aren't done with 1st half

We can't beat this team. It was fun for awhile. Trade Kat for the correct assets for a run 2025-2026.
