Shamet is a bum.

Booker has a bunch of points, but the ball started moving around better when he went to the bench ...

This game is super hard to watch and compounded by the fact that the English commentary was gone for the first three quarters and I had to listen to the stupid Chinese commentary instead.

I’ve been a Shamet whisperer but he seriously needs to pull his head out of his ass.

I guess I don’t understand how a Suns player gets hit in the face hard enough to get sent to the bench and a Jazz player ends up shooting free throws. Isn’t contact a foul?

Man, this NBATV broadcast is awesome. They’re at the game with Dennis Scott reporting on the sidelines. All kinds of special features and pieces. It’s like a big weekend national broadcast. I didn’t know they did this.

Booker was horrible in the 4th.

CP3 and the Killer B in the fourth.

Still, this was made harder than it needed to be ...

That was ... excessive.
Should have passed much more.
Bridges had no FG attempts in the second half, I believe.

As mentioned before, Suns ball movement got better when Booker sat for awhile.

Weird game. Suns came out focused then lost it by the second quarter.

Utah scrubs playing but we’re getting Stockton Malone respect front the officials…who then made it apparent that they have no idea what is and isn’t a blocked shot.

I’m not sure how much more time you give Shamet to figure it out. I hope he figures it out or they find a replace for him at the deadline and waive him. Weird situation with not being able to trade him but his yearly salary with the extension and team option makes him completely expendable. He’s one of those guys who will hurt you playing for you but also hurt you playing on another team.

Shamet 1/5 FG. I have absolutely no faith in him whatsoever.
