This isnt bookers fault, he got Ariza and Cannan MULTIPLE wide open 3 pt shots that would have put the game away and they choked. So yea, Booker doesnt trust them and i dont blame him

Moral victory: after getting stomped by the Nets we hung with the Celtics. To be fair, theyre a better team than us. All in all, the score was respectable. The numbers were respectable. Just the collapse was epic. I get it. But I'm still staying positive. We are a few plays away from beating a better team. Like Kerrsed mentioned, a couple free throws go in and we win in regulation.

Did any of us actually think the Suns would pull this one out? I mean... seriously. If Booker was the one making the decision to run the clock down with 6 minutes left in the game, that's still on Koko for not calling a timeout and telling Booker to knock that **** off. They need to watch the first half of the game and see how they got the lead, and then play that way 48 minutes a game. They went back to what got them a 2-8 record in the first place and look how it turned out. Awful decision making down the stretch.

His passiveness? Excuse the f**k out of me, but NO ONE COULD GET HIM THE DAMN BALL ALL GAME! He finally had to step out to the damn 3 point line just to start getting touches!! Passive my ass, he was constantly calling for the ball deep in the post, but none of our guys could get him the ball and instead would just keep passing it around the perimeter.

My god this team is so bad. Booker isn't a superstar it's time to deal with that. This team won't make the playoffs for another 10 years at minimum

C'mon, you know it wasn't.

It takes a massive level of futility to blow leads like that.

Of course he doesn't. Never has. We are hoping he gets there...not much progress yet though.

He put up 39 and 9 tonight lol... maybe if we didn't literally have the worst point guard in the league missing open 3s all night this game wouldn't have gotten to OT?

Seriously. Absolutely frustrating to see a dude get great position all game long only to not get the ball.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

It is SO TOUGH to win games for this team, every game is gonna be difficult and like climb a high mountain.

Obviously the Celtics are a great team, so it is not a big deal to lose the game. BUT we were so close...that hurts.

We needed to play more up tempo in the fourth quarter. That was obvious.

Booker was great. This isn't on him. The rest of the team and Igor choked down the stretch.

Love Book but him complaining for no calls sometimes gets us down 1 man on the defensive end
