Problem is that he's not even great great on offence and while his defence is coming along, it's probably a hair above average right now. Luka and Young have their issues on the defensive end (Young MUCH more so than Luka) but they are at least absolutely elite on the offensive end.

Ayton didnt touch him. He legit fell to the floor on his own. Crazy.

I don’t like when we play the Mavs on national TV because commentators won’t shut the hell up about Doncic vs Ayton.

Jones doing exactly what we signed him for. Jump, put his hands up and use his 6 fouls

Hope he doesn't put Ayton back in in the 3rd. Let Smith finish it....and even start the 4th if he's playing well..Ayton can come back in with the starters.

Good D from Payne. He's low-key competent on both ends of the court in this game

Once again, Doncic pushes off on Payne....no call. He then goes over the back of Smith.....no call.

If we drafted Doncic, he would just be another scrub in the NBA. He wouldn't be getting these kind of calls in Phoenix.

While Devin Booker almost always gets called for those offensive fouls.

Sad thing is that the NBA anointed him the Golden Boy and have been giving him those calls since his first game in the league.

I think we'd be doing a lot better if Book would pass it earlier in the shot clock to an open guy. He acts like he wants to take a contested shot instead of pass it to a wide open guy and then he passes it with not much time on the shot clock so shots are more forced and often he is already trapped by defender and it results in a turnover. Way too many turnovers tonight with 6.

BINGO!

Just like CP3 isnt getting the calls he normally gets either. Crazy to see him here doing the same things he did in OKC, but the ref's swallow their whistles depending on the name on the front of the jersey.

We're a deep team.
SHAZAM!

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