Book needs to just stick to his bread and butter mid range.
Agreed. Only take the three when wide open. Although he's been missing even those lately. I hope he gets back on track there. But yeah, stick to what is working.
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.

I love Book and want him to retire as a Sun. But if his 3-pointer stays this busted going forward, he is not going to be worth his super-max contract and will be a drag on our salary cap. I don't mind if he is careful about when he shoots 3s and only takes them when he's open, but he has to make more of those to be a super-max player.

He was never gonna be worth his contact when it came to the actual APY, but you can't be the team that just trade away the face of your franchise when you have no control of your future just because you don't wanna pay him.

Not a good take

You rather be the Kings or the Suns? You run off your franchise guys with a meddlesome owner, you become the Kings.

Suns lead after 3! Goodwin is scorching and even Dunn hit back to back 3s. Love the hustle and energy.

That's a weird take.
