[Superbone]

Mark Freakin' Williams!

[Wally_West]

That Gilly 3 might’ve been game.

[Superbone]

Rolls Royce!

Kings run out of time.

Suns win! Suns win!

[Wally_West]

That Gilly 3 might’ve been game.

Scratch that. The Royce 3 was.

[Superbone]

Williams was like a man playing among boys.

21 points, 17 rebounds, 4 assists.

[Wally_West]

Needed this win because we are going to get bitch slapped by the OKC and nuggets.

I think Collin as a starter was a nice change in the lineup...BUT...

WTF is going on with Booker's shooting? I normally fault that to when he's getting swarmed, which usually shows in the turnovers...he only had 1 TO tonight...sooo...? I'm fearing that's not going to right itself until Jalen's back on the floor giving teams something else to focus on, but tonight kind of makes me wonder if something else is going on...

I heard he was having some recent issues with the Jenner girl. Not sure if that plays into it.

I hope to heaven that's a joke...

Ya teams are just pressuring him like crazy…even Grayson back will help, which hopefully we get for OKC.

Jenner Status

She's 'keeping up boundaries' and 'doesn't want to commit'...yep, sounds like a recipe that could be affecting his play...fffff....

I mean, I hope not. You never know what's true that you read on social media these days. Things seemed decent when they got back together end of September. But she doesn't really want to be tied down, from what I hear, and it's been kind of messing with Booker (trust type stuff). It's probably just fatigue but you hope he doesn't let the dating life get to him with Jenner.

[Split T]

Pretty decent shot to make the IST even if we lose. At this point, the only other game that matters, besides our own, is Memphis vs LAC. Both of them are 2-1 and one will end up 3-1. We need to keep a higher point differential…currently it’s

1. Phoenix +35
2. Memphis +9
3. LAC -15

So root for LAC or a narrow grizzlies victory and don’t get beat by 20+(which is not exactly an easy task vs OKC)

I'll have to find what I saw. Wherever I saw it. It's too much drama for me to keep up with these days.

Ya, there is smoke in there that this could be wearing on him...fff...
Oh, and of course, the Jenners are typically fLakers fans....hmmmm...

[Split T]

Maybe we should have a Devin Booker dating life thread haha

[Danimal]

So suns kings?…

[JustWinBaby]

It is nice to see our front office doing things that James Jones never seemed to do.

Gregory has brought in talent from Europe in Hayes David. Hasn't worked yet and may never work but at least he tried.

Looks like he might have found a Gem in the G League in BOOYeah.

This is new territory for us. I actually like the idea of keeping Maluach with the team while allowing him to play in the G League. What is going on with Koby Brea?

[ShelC]

Great start to the game which basically won it for us because we pretty much lost quarters 2, 3 and 4. We came out on fire and played much faster than we have been but couldn't maintain that pace. Ice cold in the 3rd which let the Kings back into it so that's annoying but the lead was so big they couldn't get closer than 8-9 points. Got to know when the 3s aren't falling and start making it a point to attack the basket. The Kings didn't have any size out there but we were too content to take long jumpers.

Really good games from CG and Mark Williams. I'd rather see them as our 2 other guys supporting Book than Brooks being a leading shot taker/scorer. No knock on Brooks but he's best in a limited offensive role. 21 and 9 for CG and 21/16/4 for Williams. Oso was also effective on both ends, just a good team for him to matchup with because of their smaller centers.

Wish we could've held onto the lead so Book didn't have to play 39 minutes. Hopefully Allen comes back this weekend to soak up some minutes. Wonder if we keep CG in the starting lineup because we just look better with a lead guard out there but the way the subs and lineups have been working it shouldn't matter too much.
