Book has gotta cut down on the turnovers, especially when he jumps in the air with no real plan and then throws it across court.

I had no expectations of a win tonight. Even with KD, we just haven't developed the cohesion yet of a full team together.

The bench showing up again and helping cut into their lead. Doing it with defense, much better energy.. Bol seeing time again and looks good but couldn't hold his ground against Westbrook. Metu with the oop frm JO off a TO.

We have no chance if Clippers shoot 50% from 3. We are giving up some open looks and they are capitalising.

Seems like the game is over already by halftime. I wouldn't mind resting Book and Beal and just letting the younger guys play.

Lmao. Every time they have a good sequence or two, the clippers nail another 3, get another layup.

I actually didn’t think Bol was as great as all the hype would suggest the other night but he’s been really good tonight.

I don't get most of the complaints about defense in this game. The effort is there.

The Suns don't have anyone that can reliably defend Kawhi or George 1v1, so there's always going to be a "junk" defense to make them move the ball, and those guys, in addition to Harden, are knockdown shooters with a tremendously high offensive IQ.
