Pretty good start all around. Book looks locked back in. DA still soft underneath. A bit more dribbling than usual without the high post passing 4 but it hasn't been too much of a problem. A lot of PnR with DA and CP tho and Book's been aggressive looking for his shot.

I really don't understand how Ayton can be so clueless on offense. He really has no idea what to do or where to go on most possessions.

There are games where it looks like it's his first time playing.

They pissed away that 11 point lead pretty fast.

The bench has to play a lot better than that.

And Johnson has really regressed from the start of the season.

Lot of bricks for both sides tonight so far

I just don’t understand why DA seems to go out of his way to not dunk

We don’t look good right now. Can’t hit shots, Bulls getting too good of looks.

The whole team is sleepwalking through this one.

Sometimes when they get an early lead they just seem to think it's going to be an easy night and go into cruise control.

If only the Suns had a big guy who could get the ball 5 feet from the rim and make a move to score.

(Besides Frank Kaminksy.)

Well this game is going in a bad direction

Ugh. The shots just aren't falling, especially from 3 (1-10).

Horrible effort.

Basically garbage after the first quarter stuff from Booker.

Pretty bad end to the half. Lots of defensive breakdowns, CP T'd up, nothing but forced jumpers with Book the main culprit. TBH, Frank with the starters helps keep the ball moving and we're missing that.

DA is pushed out from the paint, he's pretty much a nonfactor. Bridges and Cam haven't done much either. Monty may want to try Gallo or Carter for a spark. Moore looks out of sorts and Payne was playing off the ball deferring to Book so he wasn't doing much on offense.

Gotta play harder and stick to the offense.

Interesting having Book as the primary defender, think he did Ok. His mid range bread n butter looks were all uncharacteristically short and he scored decent but really isn't playing all that.

Their supporting cast outplaying ours which is never good. Our bench usually changes the game but Thad Young been the best bench player in the game and wow when is the last time we scored less than 50 in a half.....

Missing shots is one thing but I don't like when our energy isn't good and that is the case tonight, just about everyone seems in a daze.

We all thought this could go bad for Ayton...we might be breaking him

Why is Ayton taking jump shots again? That needs to leave the offense permanently

DA just got blocked by the rim?
