Watching off and on and we look a bit better so far, albeit still some sloppy turnovers. I like that we seem to be throwing different looks at SGA to keep him a little off balance (he’s still been tremendous obviously)
Lucky we’re such a good last quarter team that it should be a cruise from here 😂

We're a good team, but without Book and CP3, it feels like we don't get very many "easy" baskets. We have a lot of talent and guys who can shoot and score, so we keep up. But we have to work for almost every basket. I wish for more ball movement and more finding the open man / creating an open shot.

I kinda miss being the greatest clutch team in league history. Wasn’t that long ago.

Of course, that was when we had Ayton.

Sounds like a team needing a point guard. Hmmm.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

It wasn't Ayton. It was having a facilitating PG.

Ain’t that the same team who got their cheeks clapped in game 7 by Luka? :(

It’s like we completely forget how to play on either end of the floor.

Barf. This game sucks. I picked a bad time to watch. 4th quarters apparently aren't our thing.

Only 1 home win so far in this early season.

Not good.

It's a long season and we haven't been healthy, so I'm told. Patience.

Has Kevin Durant always been this dog shit at holding the ball or is this just a Phoenix? Dude always losing the ball.
