Royce is 1-20 from 3

It feels like it. 2-8.

This is incorrect. Sorry.

Your fever dreams don't count as reality. I take it your wife is out playing tennis again?

Add Cody Martin to the Dunn, Oso, Gillepie mix.

How many times is KD going to lose the ball on a crossover before he realizes it's not his move anymore.

Every time?

Watching Luka in a Lakers jersey certainly doesn't make him seem any less punchable to me.

Happy to see Dunn getting minutes, along with Oso and Gillespie. But we have only managed to muster 90 points here with 2 minutes left to play.

What do you imagine happening if you punched him?

What do you imagine happening if you punched him?

A brief ripple effect across his layers of fat, resulting in no noticeable amount of injury or pain. And then assault charges and years of regret. So I think I'll pass.

[Mori Chu]

Pretty pathetic finish here.

[SunsRIt]

Pretty pathetic finish here.

You could have stopped at pretty pathetic.

Pretty pathetic finish here.

You could have stopped at pretty pathetic.

This team is not pretty pathetic, it’s ugly pathetic.

Seems like a good strategy is to just try to be the person who predicts the biggest loss for the Suns.

[The Bobster]

Nothing good to say about this one.

Spoiler: show/hide

Book tears both ACLs in the next game. Alvan Adams says “F this, I’m done with this franchise.” Isiah Thomas is our next GM and coach. The hot dogs go up to $2.50.

Except I didn’t cheat this time.

KD stiill has the chance to make a big positive impact on the Suns, by netting us a big return when we trade him this summer. The most important thing we can do as a franchise at this point is just minimize the chance that he gets injured before then.
