What happened to Carter's shot?
Just thinking the same thing. Just feels like he’s trying to play past his limitations because he’s making more money. Just needs to stick with what got him there and let his bulldog defense generate offense. Feels like he’s gotten away from that a little

Crowder about to shoot the Suns 8th and 9th free throws of the game. That's a welcome sight.

Booker has only 3 points so far. That needs to change.

But how many free throws is DeAndre going to shoot tonight?

He's 1-1 and the Suns are winning. It's not a big deal, really.

DA just ain’t it. Offer him Dario money and if he says no tell him to enjoy getting traded to Detroit

Carter has a Suns-best +11 tonight, which obviously means absolutely nothing.

Not now, but it will. This happened quite a bit last year, suns control the game only to fall asleep and fall apart in the second half. Pelicans aren’t a scrub team. You sleep on them you’re gonna get slapped.

Sit his ass every time he has a real dunk opportunity and lays it up. Seriously. His teammates are clearly frustrated at the lack of aggression. I’m starting to see this go badly.

He never had it. He had 8 good games in a closed gym that felt like the La fitness he dominates in the offseason

He can still play Call of Duty indoors and smoke legal weed in Michigan, so he's OK with that.

the frustration with DA by everyone on the team is so transparent.

That's true, but I think Book has learned to pick his spots. Crowder was on fire to start the game.

Dario is slow and can't jump, but he is a basketball player.

Do we have the best bench unit in the league?
