Agree. It's one thing to have a bad night. It's another to keep chucking without looking for your teammates.

I thought the Suns were in a good spot until early in the fourth when Trae Young hit back to back threes and Tyler Johnson was doing who the hell knows what with Booker on the bench.
They couldn't get back into it after that and the refs iced late it with their own artistic form of fuckery.

And since I'm on a roll complaining about things. K-ray and AMD is a tough listen.

They got manhandled in the fourth quarter by the worst team in the league.
Nicely done Monty.

Ann Meyers is really bad.

I'm not mad at Oubre. Two great games followed by a stinker, that's who he is as a player. It's James Jones' fault for expecting him to be the second best perimeter player on the roster.

Keep telling you guys. He’s not a starter. He’s a 6th man. We should trade him while his value is high. When his shots are not falling he will drag the entire team down with him.

Oubre 25% FG with 16 attempts. Ayton 71.4% FG with 14 attempts.
Big problem right there.

Fucking pathetic defensive effort tonight. This is on James Jones to find some competent guards for the Bench
Re: Game Day: Suns (16-23) @ Hawks (8-32), Tues 1/14/20
Non-Booker starters: 6-28, 21.4% from the field.

I think she's fine for the most part, but she says a lot of the same things I'm telling myself alone in my living room. Maybe I'm biased.

You don't beat anybody when four of your five starters don't bother to show up.

Now we know who deserves to play and who does not. Except that I will give Oubre a pass.
Re: Game Day: Suns (16-23) @ Hawks (8-32), Tues 1/14/20
Just can’t get zeroes from 4 of your 5 starters...especially when your starting pg is out and you also get a zero from your only backup guard.
Tyler Johnson and Aron Baynes have been awful lately. Saric is barely doing anything. Can’t believe I’m saying it, but maybe we could use Kaminsky right now.
Oubre sucked tonight, but he usually shows up. Been awhile since Baynes, Saric or TJ showed up.
Just give me as much Rubio/Booker/Bridges/Oubre/Ayton as possible.

I thought Saric had a nice first half offensively, but the whole team was terrible on defense and the boards so maybe he was a big part of that.

I know Baynes has been bad but I do wonder how much what is currently happening in Australia is affecting him. This has to be rough.

Given the way that the Knicks bullied the Suns in Phoenix, we're looking at an 0-3 road trip.
