Arena looks empty.
There are better things to do on Halloween than pay an outrageous price to watch this Suns team in person.
They should pay the public to go and watch this, not the other way around.

It's very surprising ESPN opted for Spurs/Suns instead of Lakers/Mavs.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

Josh Jackson has no touch at all. He reminds me of those first years with Barbosa slamming everything hard off the backboard.

Still not worth it when I have to contend with traffic and deal with parking. Pay for my tickets and my Uber ride and you may have a customer.

Warriors/Pels is the best game of the night.

Gay abusing Jackson.

Jackson needs a backup plan when he doesn't get a good angle on his drives to the hoop. Once he starts the drive, he has no escape plan. Needs to learn how to pull the ball back out.

Melton played pretty good D on Derozan there. Derozan made a tough shot and then the refs add a bogus foul.

I'm afraid for Igor's job at this point. 7 straight blowouts? How can any coach survive a stretch like that?

And yet - what have they done so far (outside of the season opener) to show us that they're going to be even competitive? So far, they're as bad as last year, if not worse.

We've done better with turnovers tonight, just can't hit any shots or stop the Spurs from hitting shots. Derozan and Aldridge 20/25 for 49 points with 0 3 pt attempts

Oh I already counted the Toronto game. It wasn't a typo or mistake.

How can they? This is embarrassing. The vets are washed. The kids are too wet behind the ears and the critics are saying, "I told you so about everything, haha!"

Booker and the 4 rooks are the only ones I care about on this roster anymore.
