What do the Suns think this is? A must-win playoff game or something?

Couldn’t have asked for a better start and first half. We’ve got them right where we want them.

He’s definitely not. I think it was a mistake for him to play. I think it contributed to our slow start. He looked better in the 2nd quarter though.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 6:20 pmIf it took this long to declare that he'll play, I'm pretty sure it indicates he's not 100% right now.

Same reason it wasn’t a travel when Wemby danced around in the lane near the end of the half.

Way too many first half whistles. And the Spurs shooters are on fire, covered or not.

Dude. Defense can not allow opponents to shoot 100% from the line. We need to work on that.The Bobster wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 8:14 pmSuns first half highlights -

It’s his 1st game back with just limited practice. Rust is to be expected. The whole team is playing like crap right now. Not saying he’s is or isn’t 100%. Just saying I don’t think this game is a good indication to say one way or the other. It’s just game 5 people, it’s okay to wait and see.Superbone wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 8:22 pmHe’s definitely not.

Yep. You can honestly say that our free throw defense has been non-existent.Cap wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 8:27 pmDude. Defense can not allow opponents to shoot 100% from the line. We need to work on that.The Bobster wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 8:14 pmSuns first half highlights -

The more we send them to the line, the harder it is for them to shoot 100%.Superbone wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 8:29 pmYep.

Wemby fouled Booker twice and then they called Booker for a foul
