Another inexcusable loss to a bad team.
So frustrating.

Holando played well. Didn't help that the Suns couldn't get a whistle to go their way down the stretch, but whatever. On to the next one.

Suns are two wins away from tying their all time record of consecutive road wins (9).

What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Suns usually reliable bench came up short tonight.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Wed Mar 24, 2021 7:20 pmHolando played well. Didn't help that the Suns couldn't get a whistle to go their way down the stretch, but whatever. On to the next one.

Womp womp. Gotta execute end of game plays. Magic defended well and shot better than they have been. We couldn't get the stops we normally get.
Trade everyone tomorrow. Start over.

Nobody played great, but the bench, Bridges, and the execution down the stretch were all terrible.

Dario's definitely hit the wall. Usually the bench helps carry the starters, tonight the starters did all the heavy lifting.

We really do have a lot of bad losses for a good team.

The Suns are 16-6 against teams .500 and above (second to Brooklyn's 18-6)
Unfortunately they're now 13-8 against sub-.500 teams.

I've had it with this team.

Re: Game Day: Suns (29-13) @ Magic (14-29), Wed 3/24/21
Honestly, it doesn't even matter anymore. This team likes dropping games to bad teams. That just is their thing, and will likely continue to the end of the season.
I'm content with a third game in a row where Ayton shows a pulse, and Craig has been a contributor. I'll take that and move on.
