Another low point - just when we thought things couldn't get much worse.

Truth. Can’t win a game where Okobo, TJ and Jevon Carter all play. Impossible.The Bobster wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 8:06 pmAnother low point - just when we thought things couldn't get much worse.
So what are you supposed to do when you don’t have at least five players who deserve to play?virtual9mm wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 7:59 pmNow we know who deserves to play and who does not. Except that I will give Oubre a pass.
For one, Ayton needs to be inserted into the starting lineup. Baynes clearly isn't the same player he was earlier in the season. This whole "sending a message" was cute and fun but DA is the far superior of the two players. We need to make a trade for a physical PF and someone who can make a 3 pointer. A competent backup PG would be nice as well.Cap wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 8:15 pmSo what are you supposed to do when you don’t have at least five players who deserve to play?virtual9mm wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 7:59 pmNow we know who deserves to play and who does not.

Rubio, Booker, Oubre, Mikal + Ayton starting lineup gets 36 minutes. When Rubio is out, run point Booker with Okobo. Johnson, Dario and Baynes get spot minutesAmareIsGod wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 8:17 pmFor one, Ayton needs to be inserted into the starting lineup.

The holes they are a'glarin.
After this game and based on the fact he exists as an option at point guard he now deserves a chance. I’d rather see Lecque go out and fail before Tyler and Elie right now
Now and forever. I will be upset if he sees another minute on the floor in a Suns uniform. He literally isn’t good at basketball any longer and he’s had like 57 chances. What the hell was he trying to do out there?
He had a rebound and a steal and was only -5. Not sure why we're hating on him.
Sorry bro but as some one who has friends who have had their lives devastated by fires here in California in the past and see the toll that it took on them makes me a bit sensitive on the subject. I could only imagine what it’s like over there. It’s insane what’s happening and no signs of stopping either. The amount of devastation is absolutely heart breaking. I was just wondering out loud of how much of that could be affecting him mentally. If you think that is ridiculous idea, that’s fine but the dudes home country is on fire and the reading and seeing videos of the devastation makes my stomach turn.specialsauce wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 8:05 pmSeriously?

His chance to shine was tonight. He had a perfect opportunity with Rubio out and Atlanta’s terrible defense. He failed to score. Had an airball or 2. Was minus 16. He shit the bed.AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 8:38 pmNot sure why all the Okobo hate. He had 3 rebounds and 3 assists.
Gonna need to put him back in the starting lineup. He’s going to be a step back defensively and the team will have to power through him falling asleep but his offensive ceiling is crazy high. I’d try the Bridges Ayton pairing in the front court.
Pretty pathetic call. Atlanta was jawing all night (they had every right to) but it went unpunishedFlagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 7:50 pmf*** these refs. Gotta be kidding me with that second technical on Booker.
Then he shouldn’t be playing.Wally_West wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 8:40 pmSorry bro but as some one who has friends who have had their lives devastated by fires here in California in the past and see the toll that it took on them makes me a bit sensitive on the subject.
