This matchup is too easy for DA to clean up. He’s walked into 14 and 9 already

He's having a rough start to the season for sure.

In a perfect world, the Suns would get Thad Young or Bagley to play second-unit 4, move Cam to 3, and move Nader to the end of the bench.

Book's rounding into form. He's scoring at all levels from everywhere in all kinds of ways. Good to see him hitting his stride.
DA's been catching dunks all night. Kings can't stop the lob. He also had two nice jumpers in rhythm. Strong on the boards too.
Not much from Cam or Shamet, would like to see us try and get more opportunities for them. Teams are really staying on them tho and making it difficult for them to get the ball.
We look a step quicker and our defense has been pretty solid so far. Feels like we should be up more. Hield got it going towards the end of the half and Holmes has been outhustling our bigs at times.

Turned on mid way through the 2nd. Like what I saw from Book and Elfrid. DA was engaged in the glass but was asleep on most plays. Lacked aggression on most others. Probably same report on him from 3 years ago.
Suns need to come out and handle business right away in the 3rd

Crowder still hasn't had a single good game this season. Hope he can find his mojo soon.

I want to see them give Jalen Smith a chance in that rotation spot before looking to acquire someone.

Suns gotta get their shit together or they're going to get boat raced by the Kings in the second half.

In a perfect world, Saric would be healthy, and we wouldn’t be losing to the Kings.

Oh boy, Landry would've had to delete his social media accounts if Mitchell hit that jumper.

Looks like we lost our legs in the 3rd. Kings came out a step quicker. I'd almost rather see PointBook with Shamet next to him than Elf getting these minutes. We need the shooting and having those scoring threats together might help things.

I’d rather try different fits internally first also. I think Monty needs to find more time/shots for Cam at the expense of Jae. Especially since he’s been such a non factor in offense. I haven’t seen anything special from Crowder on D either so far.

This is now an ass kicking. Just getting out worked.
Crowder has been two steps slow every game, and as good as it might look to see McGee grab rebounds and catch lobs, he does nothing else. He really shouldn't be an every night rotation player.

I don't know how this team can go through long stretches looking like they've never played together.

I feel you on Crowder. 100%. However I’m not sure what else can be asked of McGee. He fills an extreme need in an extremely athletic big man. He hustles and alters shots. Seems to have good b-ball IQ. I’m not sure how you could find anything better. Far cry from the days of Damion Jones, Dragan Bender, and Cheick Diallo
