We can’t hit anything, started 4/6 and have missed 12 straight 3s.

Looks like Bizzy got away with a goaltend there

How is that a shooting foul for Graham? Was hardly a foul

That was a bad call, and they made up for it with Book giving the forearm to Graham and knocking him down.

It was close. I thought in real-time it looked good, but the replay does seem to show the ball was already on the glass.

It feels like the Suns are missing twice as many rotation players than what they actually are.

We’re missing 3(4 if you count Jae). That’s quite a bit

It feels like six.

I love how CP3 pushed the ball on that play. He missed the layup, but it led to Biyombo's put-back dunk.

We really need a backup center. A 6-8 Biyombo is not cutting it against guys like Valanciunas.

I feel like this is an overreaction.

Well then you should be in favor of my trade adding Lauri, Vandy, and Clarkson haha

Mikal started out great but it feels like he’s missed 10 shots in a row now

There you go Mikal

It’s unfortunate for this specific game but not a real problem when Ayton is healthy…and we have bigger problems than Biyombo not having the size to defend Valunciunas if Ayton isn’t healthy come playoff time.

Clown move by the ref in the Grizz/Thunder game.

2nd time recently someone got a tech because the refs thought they were talking to them…happened to Luka too

I feel like this is the same level of performance the Suns had against the Clippers; the difference is that they aren't playing a G League team.

We just desperately need someone besides Book who puts pressure on the defense. No one else is a consistently reliable source of offense. Not with this version of CP3 and Ayton injured. Payne out hurts too. Even DWJ would help right now

And even when Ayton is in the lineup, it's no guarantee he'll be a difference-maker on the offensive end.

Are you now admitting that Ayton is not easily replaceable?

But yeah I'm just talking about having a big body (that's taller than 6-8) on the roster who can be that banger against taller/bigger centers. It could certainly help in regular season games like this, especially when we are shorthanded.
