Booker was awful tonight. 6/19 shooting just doesn't cut it.
I just hope he's not injured. Green's return might be needed.

That last flagrant was ridiculous though.
But it wasn't necessary and you know he's not going to get a break on any close calls.

Tough loss. Heat had to get nuclear hot at the end to pull ahead, including Adebayo somehow hitting multiple 3s. And Book, Brooks, and Gillespie all had mediocre shooting games.

Still a drag. In spite of the 20 point 1st half deficit, Suns had a 6 point lead late and couldn't hold it. Props to the Heat for closing it out strong. Suns clutch minutes not so clutch tonight.

Zero excuse. They are given phonetic pronunciations from the Suns staff.

Hope Bookers ankle is okay. Made a hell of a defensive effort on that play. On to the next one.

Wow

Here at work as usual and was showing a colleague something so end up seeing the score. Was like 54 - 71 ?!?
Then I just said I'm tuning in from the 3rd quarter to see how the guys respond

The fact that I felt it was worth tuning in and then not surprised we came out just relentless made me smile to think where my confidence in the team is now

I will watch later to see what was going on in the 1st half but yeah it's a bummer they didn't hold on but Book injury is probably a big issue. Looks like he got the green light to go back in before it stiffens up but I'm guessing it worsens over night smh

Example #578 lol as to why to never count these guys out
Hopefully health doesn't undermine what we're building

Will say that I think this is the first or at least one of only a couple times that I wanted Ott to make an adjustment and nothing happened

We had all their actions for Herro and Powell locked up but we never countered when they let Jacquez Jr initiate down the stretch.
We got away with Collin marking him early in the 4th but credit to him, his combo of strength and ball handling kept collapsing our D. Don't remember Dillon being on him much, he was on Powell a bunch and would have rather Grayson switch

Either way, sure we'll learn from it
