Honestly, I'm probably going to scan the thread during the game and check the score once or twice. I'm not going to waste my time actually watching the game tonight. I can't be bothered.
AIG unbothered?

Feels like a sweep is coming. These guys haven't shown any pride or grit so far, why start now?
You really don't think they showed pride last game? I think the Wolves are just that much better and hungrier. I think the current Suns did the best they could do but it just isn't good enough.

In some ways that is more depressing than they couldn’t be bothered trying really hard enough.
I didn't say it wasn't.

I’m rooting for no injuries and don’t embarrass themselves

I just want to say, here at what is almost certainly the end of a disappointing season, I'm glad all you bums are here to commiserate with about all of it. I really enjoy reading and talking with all of you guys. I wish we had something happier to post about right now, but, them's the breaks. Maybe next year!
I think this potential sweep killed our possible get together tonight? Maybe wait until happier times next season?
Yeah that’s probably a good plan. I also forgot I have a 7 am dental appointment tomorrow lol.

Gobert out there body blocking Booker like he's a fullback.

Feels like Booker is forcing it so he can say he gave it his all in this game.

The best thing in the game so far is that both starting centers have to sit with 2 fouls, because at least we get to run a smaller lineup which probably plays to our strengths.

Do people really think Booker hasn't been giving full effort in this series?

Maybe don't let Royce Oneale bring the ball up then just leave him alone?

Bro has been in jail, you can see the frustration. If anyone hasn't given it their best effort it's KD, routinely gets mismatches and passes the ball.

Okogie’s activity is contagious. It shouldn’t take going down 3-0 to make adjustments. It shouldn’t take Vogels job being threatened to make adjustments. Lue,Spo would have went small by halftime game 2.

Yeah, I don't equate not playing well with not giving an effort. I missed all of game 1, but I haven't seen any effort issue from him in the other games.

Totally agree, him and Bol have been under utilized by Vogel, even before the series

Royce has been a ghost for weeks. Okogie should've been given more opportunity to take some of his minutes.

I’ve caught bits and pieces of the first quarter and it looks to me they are giving strong effort. It’s pretty scrappy from what I’ve see , which is to be expected. Let’s see if we can keep up the hustle and work through the inevitable frustrations when they come.

Honestly, this looks just like games 2 and 3 from both teams to me. The Suns are just hitting more shots.

The ass kickings have come in the 3rd quarter and that's when we've seen the Suns break mentally.
