It’s tough rooting for this team without Book out there. No real emotional connection to a lot of the players yet and they are making it hard to warm to them with so many stupid/careless plays.

Losing this game on a bunch of wide open Cam Reddish 3’s is fucking embarrassing. I’m so pissed off.
It brings me a little solace that this was just a fluke…Lakers hit about 3-4 3s they wouldn’t normally hit.

Spurs, Bulls and now the Lakers twice. This 4th quarter shit is officially a trend.

It’s really not that hard to not throw dumb lazy passes.

So we’re Josh Okogie’s…most 3s by role players are. It was by design…when you hard double LeBron someone will get an open 3

The turnovers are our biggest issue. Booker will help but everyone needs to be better.

The point is you can’t give them the same look 6 possessions in a row. Eventually they’re going to hit some unless they completely suck at shooting like Okogie or Shamet.

7 straight 3s made from the Lakers is ridiculous…they are the worst 3 point shooting team in the league. Reddish hit 3 of them
They were wide open though. Suns just seemed lackadaisical throughout. They got what they deserved. They’re not very good.

Beal seems to have run out of gas again…he made it 2 quarters this time
Next time three?

What is it with this team going through stretches of unfocused play? There’s way too much collective experience for that to happen like it did in this 4th quarter.
Yep, they’ve been sucking in 4th quarters all season long. Got to get it together and finish a game.

The crazy part is Cam Reddish hardly plays. He normally comes in when it's garbage time.

The 4th quarter lulls are a problem.

We have literally zero players from more than a year ago playing.

Hate to be a broken record but...

We need a point guard.

We're the anit-heat. We have no dog in our fight. Too happy to just go through the motions.

But why is it that it seems like we're always that way? No matter who our owner, GM, coach, or players are?

This is what happens when you replace your team with a bunch of hired assassins and mercenaries.
