Nightmare game from KD lol jeez
Not only on offense. Tobias is owning him.
It's crazy how bad he has played and yet you look at the box score and he somehow has 20.
Yep. After all he is an all time elite scorer. Those crossovers are just unnatural ona guy his size. Has even dished a couple of nice assissts too. And just now made a 3pt finally.

Yeah, schizo game bu Durant. Misses both FTs (!!!) then makes a terrific and one driving to the basket like he is 21yo...

Cunningham and Duren getting into foul trouble might be our saving grace here.

I knew Allen was not going to allow that fastbreak. Make them earn it.

Remember when the Suns used to shoot 3s?

You can’t play Plumlee. He’s just bad bad bad. Lol


Trade Tyus for an another back up. Willing to give Nurk another chance but I think he’s washed too.

Kind of nuts that KD has managed to salvage this game into 27 pts and counting.

Tyus just doesn’t fit on this team as a starter

Nurk is 100% better than Bumlee, regardless of his attitude, he's just better at most things.

The transition defense has been horrific today.

It is crazy how effortless he can make some things look, which makes his lazy, errant crap frustrating.

They keep turning down open shots to make horrible extra passes or to lose their dribble to trying to make something happen.

Just fuckin shoot.

We're missing Beal's scoring tonight. You have to think he'd have sunk several of the wide open 3's that Dunn has missed.
