Regardless, he'll be out of the Suns range unless they shuffle the deck quite a bit.

But not surprising based on what we've seen. Melted down the last two in the fourth and obviously, the first Spurs game.

I don’t think it’s an overreaction to be concerned about this problem.

Re: Suns News: Week 3 (11/6- 11/12)
I think the overreaction is thinking our offense is broken and without any flow. I do agree that it’s run into some issues in the 4th Q…but most of that happened with just KD in the lineup 5 games with just KD, 2 games with KD/Book and 2 games with KD/Beal.
I don’t have the numbers, but I’d bet the 4th Q numbers from the KD with Book/Beal are just fine. And probably very good if you don’t count the Bulls game where Beal was clearly gassed.

It’s also a small sample size that can be greatly impacted by a few games.
The first Laker game is probably killing us in the numbers. Also I checked and we played the bench the whole 4th against Utah and did not do well.
It’s something to work on for sure, but I’m not going to get too concerned until we see it regularly with our team healthy. And I doubt we do.

Yes! Should be an exciting game. Maybe they all rest.

Great to hear Al McCoy still doing radio commercials (just heard one for Operation Santa Claus on the Cardinals radio network).

I'll be 40 in about a week. It's just part of getting old(er). Fleeting optimism.

Congrats in advance, AiG. I'm 44 myself and wondering where the time went. (It went to my 3.5 kids.)AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Sun Nov 12, 2023 4:19 pmI'll be 40 in about a week. It's just part of getting old(er). Fleeting optimism.
