This team doesn't really know what to do with a lead in the 4th quarter, do they?

Ish vs Bol in the battle of the opposite ends of the shoulder size spectrum.

Back-to-back nice games for Beal. I hope Coach will find a way to rest him down the stretch here; he's played 30+ minutes in back-to-back games.

What do we think is up with Book? Look at his shooting percentages the last 3 weeks. Not up to his standards at all.
Go Suns!

We’re totally gonna see a lineup of Book-Beal-KD-Bol-Nurk in an upcoming game.

To get him in double figures scoring I guess. Why else?

He’ll figure it out. Book will be fine.

I gotta say, if you wanted to let Portland back into this game, running a Bol/Eubanks frontcourt is a way to do it.

This lineup is the absolute dregs of our roster. Goodwin-Okogie-Watanabe-Eubanks-Bol.

Yeah. He seems to go through stretches like this every season. His effort is still there, though.
