Re: Game Day: Suns (10-6) @ Knicks (9-6), Sun 11/26/23

Y'all already said it, but it's worth repeating. Really good game from our role players, especially Goodwin. That was one of the best games of his career, and I hope he can keep that swagger. Love the confidence he is playing with right now. The Knicks are really fun to watch. I'm happy that NY has ...

Re: Around the League: Week 4 (11/13 - 11/19)

Would somebody please tell Wemby that you're not allowed to hang on the rim on a dunk if you don't jump? Also, has much as we go on and on about not drafting Haliburton, why doesn't De'Aaron Fox get the same treatment? We did. But it was long enough ago that we've moved on to other complaints. But ...

Re: Game Day: Suns (6-6) @ Jazz (4-8), Sun 11/19/23

I said at the beginning of the weekend that I expected Utah to play us tough, but gott-dayum they took it too far. Those were 2 stressful games when you don't trust your team in crunch time. It's all worth it though, because we won and the team earned some more trust. You guys, the Suns might be god...

Re: Game Day (In-Season Tournament): Suns (5-6) @ Jazz (4-7), Fri 11/17/23

Ya we need to run up the score on Portland and Memphis next week if we want to have a shot at advancing to the single elimination tournament Or, here's a thought, who cares about that? I don’t know why you think people don’t care. The suns do for sure. Vogel and the players have said as much. But m...

Does Beal have a disc issue or something?
Who knows at this point. I heard he was a bit injury prone before we got him. I thought that was an exaggeration. But I mean, it is what it is. It's not his fault.
It's not like he was out doing bunny hop's on a 20" BMX. :lol:

Re: Game Day (In-Season Tournament): Suns (5-6) @ Jazz (4-7), Fri 11/17/23

Perfect game for the Suns to build on what they started in Minnesota. They know they can beat the Jazz, but Utah should play much tougher than they did when we faced them in October. In our last matchup, the Jazz were on the second night of b2b and clearly didn't have winning energy. Tonight, we fac...

Re: Game Day: Timberwolves (8-2) @ Suns (4-6), Wed 11/15/23

Book in attack mode means KD got a quiet 31 points on 15 shots. Beautiful to watch. On top of that we got the good versions of EG and JO. Yuta is fun to root for, but damn dude. Love his energy, but not the nervous energy that goes into his shot. He just needs to settle down, because he can play. It...

Re: Around the League: Week 4 (11/13 - 11/19)

Kevin O'Connor usually has pretty steady takes. Once in a while he'll dip a toe in the hot take bath with something goofy, but I appreciate what I perceive to be mostly honest opinions. I think he did a pretty good job with this. I think Haliburton is a bit high because we've never seen him play in...

Re: Suns News: Week 4 (11/13 - 11/19)

Do we think that Vogel / Young are actively bad at coaching this team's offense? Like, if Monty were still our coach, would the offense be going better? Or is it more about the large number of roster changes that happened during the offseason, primarily dealing CP3 but also all the other role playe...

I could say a lot of negative stuff, but y'all have said most of it already. It's not a case of missing shots and the other team makes some. We aren't executing on O and we aren't digging in on D. The Suns just lack toughness, identity, and leadership. Book can't be the only one to bring those thin...

Nurkic is the new Saric. The offence flows really well when we can play through him, but we flounder when he is overmatched physically.

... I never saw the appeal of Beal but I never watched him enough. Just seems like Booker-lite. Sounds like your take on Beal is similar to what most NBA fans think of Booker. High volume scorer who hasn't done much in the playoffs. But Beal is legit. Booker-lite is a disservice. He has had 2 seaso...

Re: Game Day: Suns (2-4) @ Pistons (2-4), Sun 11/5/23

I think Eric Gordon has emerged as our 4th best player. Do you agree / disagree? If it weren't him, you could make the case for Okogie, Allen, maybe Nurkic. But EG has been more consistent than those guys, IMO. His scoring and ability to generate offense has been really helpful. Ya I think he and A...

I don't want to open up that discussion again, but I'll be paying specific attention to the way we run offence through the centers. 4 games in, and the centers are giving us a combined 6.5 assists per game and are the top 2 in assist per 36. I've appreciated their passing so far, but haven't really ...

Need something to wash this World Series loss and Tuesday’s embarrassment out of my mind…. Suns by 20, then they lose with 1 second left. 😭😭😭😭😭😭 We were seriously ahead for over 47 minutes and 58 seconds in a 48 minute game and lost. Ooooookkkkkk... Moving on... Turns out Pop can still coach.
