Eubanks was so bad in the first half that I'm not surprised the Spurs made a huge run when Nurkic left injured.
I didn't see any of the game during that stretch, but I'm pretty sure I know how it looked.

Nothing like getting 3s bombed on you by absolute nobodies.
Even better are winning 3s from bad 3 point shooters.
Feels bad man.

Assuming they hand Vogel a dozen eggs and a needle, whom should they tag for this circus end of season to try to shovel out the stall?

These guys have no killer instinct. First let the Spurs get a double digit lead. Then go back up but let the Spurs hang around all game and let off at the end of the 3rd for a 16-0 run. Just total apathy and no intensity until it’s too late. Maybe the most frustrating Suns team ever. At least we knew the bad teams sucked.

Honest question. What is Bob Myers going to say differently to Mat Ishbia than James Jones?
It's pretty clear who's pulling the strings on roster moves.

Losing to the Spurs 3 times in a year should get you fired on the spot. Lost season. This team will never figure it out.

Bob Myers would be "his" guy and he would trust his guy over James Jones.

That's a pretty big assumption based on them having no prior history AFAIK.

Bob Myers has 4 championships. Arguably one of the best GMs ever.
How much would Ishbia listen to him? I don’t know, but I trust whatever he telling Ishbia more than James Jones and think theres a better chance of it getting through too.
James Jones has ran it course. For a season like this, there needs to be big changes.

I don't think the GM is all that important with Mat Ishbia. He's going to get the final say and his prior connections to basketball are going to outweigh a newcomer, so I can envision him thinking it's not good value for money to sign what would likely be the richest GM contract in league history.

Fraudulent team.
I haven’t been on the Fire Frank bandwagon but this game was a fireable offense.

I highly doubt it. I think Balmer would make roster changes before firing Lue.
I think all of that stuff last summer was just Klutch playing the leverage game with the richest owner in the league.

I'm not going back to watch this one, but I looked at the game log and losing Nurkic was the tipping point when the Suns had to use Bol in place of Nurkic during his usual second shift late in the 3rd to early 4th.

Quite possibly the most underachieving team ever

I don't know how much Jones even does with that Bartelstein dude around too, all this collaborative effort stuff seems weird.
