Really? I thought it was entertaining when we went on that run. The last 4 minutes was dreadful. I'm sure the Suns will adjust.

Why you telling me? I told yall that when we signed him
When we had the worse brother he played better for us.
50+ win season if Bledsoe doesn't go down.

A bit negative Nancy. Our shooting 3s are great, which is the one thing we needed to do more of. 10-23 or 44%. We are only shooting 43% overall but when most of those are 3s, you are fine.
Our biggest problem is rebounding. We need to crash the boards. Gave up way too many offensive boards to them (9). They are up by 9 on the glass in a half. Of course that also means they have a lot of missed shots.
I think that's something we can clean up.
We also have 8 turnovers which was a problem last year. That's despite Tyus Jones and Monte Morris having zero. But the Clips have 11, so that's good.

It's nice to see them swing around the ball so much along the 3 pt line.

Y'all are way too harsh considering it's the first game with a new coach and pgs. Have a nice lead at half and I've seen a lot of bright spots

Mason hasn't got the same lift anymore and its to be expected at his age & he'll likely be out of the league soon.
Oso deserves more minutes in the rotation to see what he can do out there.

What exactly is this teams identity? Looks a lot like last year. Tyus brought in to be a point but isn't running the point. To much unselfishness maybe? We need a dude and the big 3 overshare and are to nice.

Suns up 8 at half with nobody being in double figures in points. 18 points off the bench in the 1st half.
Tyus Jones leading the +- at 12.

Completely underestimated how much Mason has regressed

Looks nothing like last season..... Just that alone makes it nothing like last year where it was Big 3 generating 99% of the offense.

He seems to be a relative metronome of consistency, whether it's bad or indifferent is hard to say. I mean... at least we have someone who comes in and tries? Looks at our depth at that position last season.

Up 17 in the 2ndQ down to 3 with all the same crap we saw last year.
Clippers arent going to lose the home opener in their new building. Not with all these Suns turnovers and mindlessness.

Scoring. Ideally we have an athletic C surrounded by shooters...we know they can also iso as well, which is a plus if they don't overdo it.
Would be nice if Oso could turn into Amare 2.0.
OK, that might be a lot to ask for.
Oso does seem to be our best rim deterrent though in this extremely small sample size (I know Amare didn't do that...just noting it).
