This is a dumb challenge for J Kidd. They win? Great. Suns ball. They lose? Free throws. Juice doesn’t seem worth the squeeze. The kind of stuff that tells players you think that little bit of margin is something you need to have.

It feels like every time I start to hope they have to perform to suck the life out of that hope...nuts...

Luka literally just got the call they wouldn’t give Royce…back to back plays

I was just typing how that’s a foul if it’s Luka and then the perfect example

Oh no. PJ Washington falls into KD's knee. Please let him be okay.

Not enough defense on this team to make up for one of the three scorers being out.

That nap they took to start the second half was just too much to overcome.

Our clogged toilet offense and "go ahead, take whatever shot you like" defense seem to not have been good enough tonight.

Glad KD seems to be okay. I hope they'll take caution and give him some scans to make sure there was no damage.

The Suns still have no answer for Luka defensively.

They were flying around in the first quarter, but that obviously wouldn't sustain. I think it really took a lot out of them and could've been part of their low intensity in the 3rd.

A week without a real game and the first one back is a loss at Dallas with Reggie Miller on the broadcast. Couldn't really have been any worse of an experience.
