Let's see if the Wiz can keep the tank rolling. Can they make it six losses in a row?

Then again, until they get competent management, I don't really care. The only reason I could care anymore is that I hope the new GM gets a better shot at a top pick.

Go Suns!

Beal is fine as long as he misses FTs to help the tank. Booker has 42 points in 28 minutes on 15 of 21 shooting. That's insane.

Bummer. I thought he had figured things out. He went about 2 full months shooting 88%. But he has made just 13 of his last 21, which is 62%

Beals handles for an Allstar is still subpar.

Does Gil still hold the record in Phoenix. 54?

Looked for a while like Booker's hot scoring and the Zards FT shooting was going to doom us. But great games from Bryant, Beal, Sato, and Parker, and the Beal-Bryant connection on the last two offensive possessions saved us.

For Pif, aka Devin Booker hater, Booker scored 22 more points than Beal on 7 more shots.

All-star level performance by Parker off the bench.

First time for me getting a really good look at Ayton. He's diet Greg Oden reincarnated but with working legs. Not sure if his ceiling is as high as Greg's was, in fact I think its lower because the footwork isnt there. But we'll see.

Staying with Portland circa 2007(?) I think Booker has a little Brandon Roy in him. At least on the scoring end of the floor anyway. Again, with working legs. I think thats a better comparison than Harden.

And finally in regards to the game, DID SOMEONE NOT TELL BRYANT THAT THIS WAS MEANT TO BE A GOOD TANK LOSS? BRO SERIOUS

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.
