Where are the Book haters now? Haha…He’s been phenomenal to start the year.
Great game from him tonight, but the turnovers that have plagued him every time we try to do this James Harden'esque Point-Book thing have been a real bummer so far. I think the key is to let Allen and other players bring it up at times.
Go Suns!

I think we’ve found a good balance this year…I haven’t watched every game, but he’s not playing like Harden or Luka. He’s still being put into position to be the one bending the defense…a lot is coming from the corner and taking a handoff after someone like Grayson brings it up. Will probably be Jalen Greens role soon.

Refs take Williams out with 3 fouls in the 1st qtr, Oso fouls out in the 2nd qtr. Wemby gets at least a triple double, maybe a quadruple double with blocks. Some roleplayer like Keldon Johnson hits four 3s.

Outstanding win tonight, with great efforts all round including the coach who game planned the heck out of this one, especially to keep Wemby contained.

I feel a little guilty saying it, but I kind of like how we are being rough with Wemby. Don't just let this guy finesse his way to 40 points.
Guilty?! About time a Suns team had some grit and defensive identity.
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.

Not a great 4th Q so far
Definitely a let down. Even so, still got our bench in with 4 minutes to spare based on the first three quarters. Dunn had his best game of the season and hit the back breaking three.

I've noticed Ryan Dunn bringing the ball over the half court many times in the last two games.

Some of you guys were pouring dirt on Ryan Dunn way too quickly. I'm team Dunn all the way. How can you look at where he was in college offensively and where he is today and not be encouraged by his ability to improve?

He had a great game tonight on both ends of the floor. The key for him is to maintain a higher degree of efficiency on the offensive end than he's shown so far this season.
