Game Day: Suns (0-2) @ Clippers (1-0), Sat 10/21/17

Well, they clamped down defensively and held them to 58.

Alright, boys, I am headed out for the night. Hold it down. Here is hoping for a close one through 4 and a loss at the last second!

[Mori Chu]

We really need a new PG and new coach. The offense is unwatchable out there. Nobody distributes or sets anything up or makes anybody better. It's a bunch of 19-year-olds juking their man and going 1-on-1 mostly, or errant passes into the crowd, or offensive fouls. It's a disaster.

I like this post.

Same as opening night, they go on a run at the beginning of the 3rd.

I'm out for the night. Keep your spirits up, kids!

[EDC]

Here we go...

[The Bobster]

Clippers go on a 12-2 run to start to the second half. Lead is now 24.

[ShelC]

Way to prep the team for the 2nd half, coach.

[carey]

I didn't think we would win a lot of games but I am not sure I thought we would look this bad doing it. We have so many problems. No defense, a half-ass offense, not nearly enough shooters, and in spite of all this preaching of togetherness they certainly don't play like a team out there.

[The Bobster]

Beverly acts like he never committed a foul in his life.

[The Bobster]

Suns have been outscored by 76 points in their first 3 games so far.

that's a margin of -25.3 points, which is ridiculously bad.

[EDC]

Clippers announcers "The Suns won't like what Watson has to say." when he called a timeout.

Watson is probably just letting them all know he is going to take them out to dinner. Where he will ask them to go on to youtube and watch some videos on offense and defense before the next game.

Done.

He's probably planning an emergency yoga session.

all game day threads lead back to the Watson Watch thread...

[Flagrant Fowl]

When will the Suns get their first win?

Monday at home vs. Sacramento, 10/31 at Brooklyn, or 11/3 at the Knicks?

[EDC]

So tough to watch.

[The Bobster]

Suns are getting perilously close to their 2nd 40-point loss in 3 games.

[EDC]

I swear our team looks outclassed. We need to go back to playing the Bullets.

I would say of everyone Jackson looks the best. Only in that he is a rookie and looks good for a guy playing his first few games in the league.

I dunno it just looks bad.

[The Bobster]
