The Suns body language is awful. No joy. No passion.

This back to back Durant turnovers where he didn’t run back sucked the life out of the team.

Vogel is watching the same Eubanks we are, right? The guy is unplayable. An offensive possession ending with him posting up (with 10 seconds on the shot clock) is malpractice.

Starting to look like time to blow this up...? The call to flip Vogel as a first step seems like that is inevitable...the team is simply not performing...

Many times I said it it was not the players fault.
We sent 4 players who wasn't producing, got Oneale, and are the same lost team.

I hope this team enjoys the Play-In Tournament. That's where they are headed.

yeah, but even if we win, that's not a team that'll go far on the playoffs.

Are they playing down to this level maybe on purpose, even if its subconsciously? An effort to provoke management to fire Vogel?

We’re lucky to have a shot at this one after those lousy 2nd and 3rd quarters.
