Hate to say it but I’m glad Dillon is out. Black hole on offense.

The slow iso-back down into a turn around jumper stuff was cute in November. Can't have Brooks looking off a wide open Fleming on the 3-point line now.

May need more than one basketball with Book, Green and Brooks out there.

Allen and Green, 3-16 FG.

Also, why play Brooks in the first half when he already had three fouls?
A fun team to watch again. A trade or two away from being a serious contender...

Suns on pace to top the Pacers season high 37 team fouls in a single game. Thanks refs.

Looks like the teams are on pace to shoot about a hundred combined free throws. That always makes for an interesting game. :roll:

The Magic lost by 50 in their last game. They were going to come out full of fire this game.

Suns are going to lose a very winnable game. I hate whatever offense Ott has on the floor.

This might be the dumbest game we played all year. From the coach to the players. Just stupid basketball all around.

The last three minutes, the offense flowed like mud in winter.

He had 2 blocks in 2 minutes. But couldn't get an burn. Coach Ott really struggling since around the All Star break.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Ott needs a Lineup/Rotation Coordinator on the bench to tell him who to play and when.

Awful coaching by Ott.

Rotations made absolutely no sense.

No Fleming?? no Mann Mann??????

Way too much Allen and Royce. Way too small for no reason. Awful awful awful deferring to Brooks and Book
