What do we think is up with Book? Look at his shooting percentages the last 3 weeks. Not up to his standards at all.
Obviously it's the Kendall Jenner breakup. You know she's blowing up his phone.

I think we’ve made 2 free throws since I turned the game on…like 2/10

Nice win without KD. Seven Suns in double-figures scoring. Beal leads all with 21 points. Bol Bol with 11 points in easily his best game as a Sun so far; it's fun to see the crowd go absolutely nuts when he makes a play. Suns got a chance to empty their bench and everybody scored except Azubuike. Book shot poorly (4-16) but still contributed 6 assists and 8 rebounds. Nurkic quietly chipped in 18 and 7.

I gotta say, if you wanted to let Portland back into this game, running a Bol/Eubanks frontcourt is a way to do it.
The final score says otherwise.

I take heart from some numbers out of Bol...I hope we continue to develop and nurture him. If we could develop him into a productive asset as the year progresses, my hopes for the year go up! 11 and 9 good shooting %s, I´ll take it. Hope this is the start of an improving Bol.

He’s been a revelation. He’s got weaknesses for sure, but it’s so refreshing to have a big man who plays big. I’m happy to concede I was wrong about the trade. It’s been a home run.

Nurk always looks gassed, the whole game, can't ever tell if he is actually tired or just sweats a lot.

You want your veterans to set a tone. And he sets a much better one than the previous guy.
