so many rim outs

offensive boards to layups or open 3s

i am yelling pass the ball like im watching children play

Picked up just where we left off in pre-season.

That was brutal.

How long were we stuck on 35? Maybe a timeout or something?

5 for 15, 10 points

Gotta love that fantastic Earl Watson iso ball offense. 35 points in the 1st half.

Held em to 60! Who's got a hug?

I think our problem is that we can't shoot, pass, or rebound.

Suns shot 29% and got out-rebounded 34-18.

The bench - 25 minutes, 0-6 FG, 4 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 points

Warren not having a very good game. Disappointed. Maybe he's still getting back to 100%.

We don't have any long-distance shooting. Our only 3 is from Jackson at the start of the game. Should let Daniels take a few. We really need to get more 3-point shooting on our roster.

Our bench has been pretty pathetic from an offensive standpoint. Only 5 Suns players (the starters) have scored.

Watson has completely eliminated bench points from the playbook

Wow! Other than the poor rebounding, shooting and ball distribution, that was a pretty impressive half of basketball. Saw a ton of things to give me hope #theTimeline

what do you mean iso ball? they had 4 assists!

Well, they held Portland to 44% shooting, which isn't bad - but then they also gave up 9 offensive rebounds.

To me, that is where we are getting killed. It wouldn't be a blow out if we didn't give up those layins after an o-board.

It is such an ugly type of basketball to watch. I wish we had a coaching staff that could install an offense that wasn't focused on a weave at the top of the key and then highly contested drives to the hoop.

I'm excited about Josh Jackson. I think we will all be clamoring for a hc change by the mid season mark.
