I was all for keeping Chandler around but man has he fallen off a cliff.

How is it a fireble offence if it's a unpopular comment

Unpopular comment because fans love booker but fireable because frankly if that move was actually available McD was an idiot for not making it.

BW you might be right that zinger was never really available.

I'm rooting for booker but the bucks are my other favorite team and I'm having serious brandon jennings flashbacks with Devin. Both guys had some flashes and their games looked cool but ultimately are wildly inefficient and don't play d. I really hope I'm wrong.

I don't think we were this bad guarding the 3pt line last year?

Jennings shot like 38 percent FG or something his rookie season. Booker is still a way better shooter and would have a higher FG percentage if he stuck more to catch and shoot type situations.

I hate injuries.

I also hate how often we get the ball and go down the court and there is zero ball movement before a shot is taken. There should almost be a rule that the ball must move under normal circumstances, like not on a fast break by yourself or there isn't a defender within 5 feet.

I've seen a Jennings comparison before. Jennings also had that 55 point performance early in his career. That was probably about what Booker would have had if not for the force feeding and fouling. Booker may have had a few more than that though.

I live in Europe and it's like 6 in the morning here, i'm watching the game because well I love my Suns even though they kinda suck right now. All i wanted is some persistence and fire from our players. I love what i am seeing from Josh and Booker because they are putting a fight, they look like they are at least trying but whenever i see Bledsoe, he makes me so angry. Zero effort and spirit from our team leader.

Simple swing passes create open shots against us
This is pretty unbelievable.

Always in the wrong spot, always reacting to nothing.

I don't like Chris's body language, puts his head down after a missed shot or opponents makes.

He needs more hustle like Jackson.

The tape is out on Chandler. You can tell they are going right at hime and scoring. When we had Len in, it wasn't as bad since the small guards were staying out on the perimeter.

The great thing about Booker is that he is doing other things too like passing and is a little more multi dimensional. He's not nearly as good of a shooter as some make him out to be yet, and hopefully he gets better, but if he can get assists, get to the line a lot and shoot a good percentage, etc, at least that helps. He needs at least some defensive improvement though.
