Well considering how bad things went on the defensive end this could be a lot worse

Oneale was -15 in 7 minutes in the first half.
If he gets time in the second Ott is a puppet.

O honestly what's the point of having a coach if he's not going to make any adjustments to his lineup.
This is not Vogel who had no bench. Ott has several athletic plus defenders who can handle their end offensively and refuses to play them because "vets"

It’s pretty fucking dumb. Give me the two rookies over Oso and O’Neal.

These refs seem to confuse Henderson with holiday and let him get away with plenty of swipes and. Grabs swipes etc.
Suns get tic tac calls the other end
