What is our record with challenges? We have to be one if the worst in the league. And how do we not have a system in place to quickly see about that easy out of bounds call? Just this alone shows that there's a problem with Bud, his staff, or both.
And KD with the horrible turnover.

This team hasn't never shown any mental toughness. No ability to focus in and start games like their hair is on fire, no defensive toughness, can't find offense when the jumpers aren't falling.
Luka's just dominating us and getting what he wants for himself or his teammates.

Nothing worse as a suns fans than Luka and the Lakers joining forces and abusing the bitch ass 3.
At least he didn't join the Spurs and Wemby.
Eh, this is worse.

Yep, it's embarrassing. The whole half time show is about how listless the Suns are and their horrible, no effort defense.

I thought this season may have been salvageable had Bud played the rooks more but now I think it's much larger than that. There are things that either aren't getting thru to the players or aren't being stressed day in and day out. It's like last year but worse. Still, I'd rather see lineups of Book, Dunn and Oso with some other rooks or younger players who play hard and really compete even if we only win 30-35 games. Still going to take a fresh coaching staff IMO.

This might be the game that finally gets Bud fired.
That’s what I’m hoping at least

Yep, at least Dunn, Oso, and Gillespie are giving it their all. I'd rather watch that.

Gillespie starting the 2nd half, Beal out with a hamstring injury.
We also seem to have no answer for Jaxson Hayes.

Man that’s a toss up for a

Would like to take a couple minutes to thank the STANK 3 on giving Kendrick Perkins and Stephen A. more than enough fuel to torch y’all. Kudos…. They couldn’t be more right about how terrible you all look. Hope you all go away.

It's not Hayes, it's Luka getting him whatever he wants, literally any big man with Luka is gonna feast against this team.

I keep thinking that but I’ve given up on any reasonable thought by this team.

The Spurs are in full on tank mode with no Wemby or Fox. They will probably end up with the #1 pick again and draft Cooper Flagg.

Suns running their normal script. Play horrible to start and get way down and then fight uphill the rest of the game. Not a recipe for success.
