? That wasn’t a bad pass...Ayton was open and had an easy dunk of he was ready for it

That step back 3 korkmaz hit after we cut it to 6 was probably the final nail in the coffin

Fair enough, but he’s been the main instigator of this comeback and he makes one semi questionable play and you have to call him out? He’s been fantastic this quarter

132-127...good to see us fight back. Put up 78 in the 2nd half.

Daniels played the final 15 minutes...+24

He was and I'm glad he plays with heart. I just want him to start mixing in his playing with his head. For every game like this he has 2 bad ones.

My bigger beef is with Warren and Bridges. They brought nothing tonight. Bridges appears to have hit the rookie wall. Too bad. Hope he figures is out sooner than later.

Suns 2nd unit fought hard to give the team a chance. Hats off to them tonight.

I just think Jackson does enough stupid things that we can save our criticism of him for when he actually plays bad.

Agree. We pile it on him regularly. Dude has a good game and we pile it on him some more.

Here’s the first thing I saw while watching the Suns’ broadcast. Not sure if this was directed at a fan or what.

It's disappointing that we still come out flat to start games and get down by 30. Almost all bad teams do it: They get down by 25, make a comeback in the 2nd half only to fall just short. I don't know how we fix it but there's not excuse for it.

Our defense is a joke and I can't stand the switching and watching Ayton chase point guards 25 feet out. I'm sick of it. It's why we give up wide open dunks and layup. We have no rim protection, no one's helping, we never take charges and their bigs get switched onto our guards and take advantage. Whoever is "defensive coordinator" needs to revamp things. We don't have bad defenders, we have a bad scheme.

I never complain about the refs but I've seen a bunch of games this year and we're not getting any calls. I know we're a young, bad team but the refs have no respect for us. It's time Igor got a T or took a fine by calling refs out after a game. Or maybe our front office should put together a tape of missed/bad calls and send it to the league office.

I only just got done watching the replay and full credit to you guys who actually watched the whole game last night

I really like Embiid, he's carrying one of my fantasy teams and helping ShelC punk me in our league but I think the calls last night were getting a lil crazy

I hope Mikal will be fine, don't wanna overreact to anything

Don't mess with The Process!

Watching Embiid gives you a good idea of how far Ayton has to go to become an elite big man.

Watching Embiid makes me wish we had a coach who would tell his team to play thru his monster center.

Word. They should just be doing what teams like Houston and Philly are doing, and that's to force the ball to their star as much as they possibly can. In our case, Ayton being the star in this context, even though Booker is our real #1 guy. Just run everything through Ayton, every single play.

I don’t actually think Ayton is ready to be force fed touches. I’m fine with him staying highly efficient as he develops! Let him take on more responsibility year by year.

He's 20 years old and averaging 17 points and 11 rebounds and shooting 60%.

I think he's on the right track. Let's just exercise some patience.
