Yeah Dunn can't take those kinda shots. He's not that kinda guy.

This doesn't look any better than last season outside of ball movement. Apparently we still can't rebound. For all the talk of more shooting, I don't see it and instead see more of the same: standing around, iso ball, and no movement in the offense.

Chemistry goes a long way in the pro's and this iteration of the Suns needs to develop it still. Lots of new pieces this year to boot.

BAD shooting. BAD. Chucking isn't the answer here. Smart shots are what gets it done and this isn't it.

Dunn keeps gathering his shot first like he's gonna tuck the ball and he needs to cut that out.

Is Nurkic out?

I hate to say it but we need some kind of post presence so we can get some inside out plays going.

Jacking up three's isn't going to cut it.

Like our PG drive and kick, shot chart looks good.

Dunn looks like a rookie cause he is.

Interesting quick rotations and rests.

No. He played half of the first quarter. They're just going with what seems to be a quicker lineup even though it hasn't mattered a damn.

It felt like there was zero presence inside though. We really need a physical athletic C who really hustles for rebounds. I know that Nurkic usually has a lot but he's so sloppy shooting and it just doesn't feel like there is any deterrent from the other team going to the rim.

Look at that beautiful 3 pt shot from Nurk though.
