The Suns are being judged too harshly based on their performance early in the season when they didn't have all of the Big <=3 playing. As someone else stated, the Suns with the Big <=3 in the lineup are playing at a 60-win pace. If they were doing that all season long, everyone would be talking abou...

Nice summation by Mori. I agree with most of what he states. However, I think I like the Eubanks / Bol lineup. It didn't work great in this game since neither one can guard Giannis, but I want to see more. I think it can work. I'm also not concerned with the lack of production from Gordon, Allen and...

Miles Bridges, Nic Batum or bust for me, really. I think this team really needs another front court impact player and maybe a guard to take the minutes away from shit for brains. None of the other scrubs mentioned moves the needle at all.

"shit for brains" = ? EG?

heh sorry.

Since Palworld isn't out yet on PS5, that would be quite the feat!

I mean...the video evidence looked convincing. You're being serious? It was two examples where all he did was stand at the 3-point line and then head back to defense when the shot went up. There was a lot of reading into it to come to a bad body language conclusion. Like Wally says, most of the bad...

Well deserved.

No. Kendrick Perkins and ESPN are the issue.

100%. Perk is a joke. It was a big nothing. Just finding stupid stuff to criticize. How does anyone listen to what he says?

That's a charge. He literally hit the guy in the face with his balls. How is that not called?

I've had a chance to think about the way the Suns are playing and have a philosophical question. If the scheme is to create mismatches that our stars exploit one-on-one, is this team ball? Or iso-ball? I'd say the offensive strategy is to force defenses to double a star so that they can swing it to...

I guess I was referring to the 4th quarter performance, which has the Suns at the bottom of the league.

But think of it this way, the more you go down, the easier it is to go up! Every time it gets worse makes it more likely it will get better. The power of positive thinking.

Here's some positivity: It can only get better!

That's a good way to put it.

At least the Suns will have their top players for the first time against these Lakers. It really helped against the Clippers.

I'm looking forward to Damian Lee's return, personally. Part of the problem is that guys that were supposed to be good shooters have been awful (Watanabe, KBD... Okogie and Goodwin too, but at least those two were known to be awful). I'm hopeful that Lee will provide a reliable shooter off the bench...

I agree. That stood out for me. I think Nurkic has done well considering expectations. He's outplayed the guy he replaced. It's kinda weird to include Mikal too. Maybe he's just going for something controversial to generate clicks.

So CP3 has the cut off sleeve undershirt too. I'm disappointed some reporter hasn't reported on the reason for this trend. Are the Nike jerseys rough on the inside or something?

Time for a new poll!

That guy's right about everything, I'm afraid.

Yup. He's letting the players off the hook too much though.
