Man, Lakers eliminated Pels from IST, knocked them out of the 6th seed, and might knock them into a do or die game next…
Zion was curiously in cruise control in a pivotal game...

Kinda funny to see Okogie play like he’s Booker
Would you bring him back for next year? What if this is the offseason he finally develops a 3pt shot?
You might grow old waiting for him to develop a consistent shot...

Re: The Suns Main Issues and How to Fix

One small fix is to changeout Eric Gordon for Damian Lee.
I don't think EG is as bad as some around here portray: he's a streaky shooter who is either on or cold as the Arctic.
Damian is younger, taller and at least attempts to play defense, so I'm banking on him being a net positive.

Re: Game Day: Pelicans (45-32) @ Suns (46-31), Sun 4/7/24

New Orleans bench outscored Suns bench 34-7.

Alvarado had five 3s.

Suns were outrebounded 42-38. Also had 15 TOs to Pelicans 12.

The game was sloppy early in the first quarter, with Pelicans missing shots and making TOs.
Suns failed to capitalize.

Re: Game Day: Wolves (53-23) @ Suns (45-31), Fri 4/5/24

From the Minneapolis Star-Tribune: The Suns could end up being a first-round playoff opponent for the Wolves, and maybe Phoenix has put some doubt in their minds as to how a potential postseason matchup would look. The Suns join the Pelicans, another potential first-round opponent, as the only teams...

Re: Game Day: Wolves (53-23) @ Suns (45-31), Fri 4/5/24

Minnesota was not impressive. Even when the Suns had a string of TOs in the third, the Wolves couldn't capitalize. Suns defense was as good as I've seen for awhile. The bench illustrated why it's called "garbage time." Played like a bunch of high school second-stringers. Azubuike looked lo...

I think it's a little odd that Booker essentially called for more PT for Thad and Vogel was like nah bro Poobanks got this.

Frank lost this team, if he ever even had it to begin with.
Booker seems to be idling in cruise control this game....

Suns' bench made the difference.
21 rebounds combined from Young, O'Neale and Bol.
All bench players in the plus column for +/-.
Suns' bench outscored Denver's 29-15.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

They need to start accumulating developmental players to balance out the cap assets. There's also a G-League team coming soon, right? This is why I’d support a Killian Hayes signing. Although, he’s probably looking for more of an opportunity. Agreed ..they should give him a shot and try to throw so...

I thought watching GCU against Alabama was painful.
At least Grand Canyon played with passion, and with effort on defense (on offense, they were clueless, though).
