Wow. And it keeps coming. Rubio is going to be out a few games. That’s an obvious groin strain

Yep. And right during our stretch of "winnable" games

It feels like the Lakers have called 17 timeouts this half

Booker has to find a way to get that pass to DA running the break

I think I’d rather have point Book in and sub Cam for Tyler. Tyler’s played hard tonight but he’s rusty.

If the suns just found a way to not be down 30 after the first quarter they could’ve won this one!

You've got to come out ready to play.

Here’s to hoping we we second half Ayron for the rest of the way.
If I’m James Jones I’m calling Orlando to see what it takes to get DJ Augustin. Need a better back up PG ASAP. Carter and Okobo couldn’t even dribble the ball up in that first half

Suns should look to start Rubio-Booker-Oubre-Bridges-Ayton. That lineup really meshes well defensively and is a big reason for the big comebacks recently. I also think that lineup would help to make sure that they don’t get down 30 after the 1st quarter...

Ugh, I’m fully expecting the worst. That’s just what kind of season it’s been.

Yeah I think I’m ready to try something different at PF. Saric hasn’t brought much lately.

Yes please.
And someone leave Carter in LA for the love of God.

Carter is unplayable but Monty continues to go to him. -13 in his 4 minutes today.
Okobo actually has been pretty solid all season. I’m good with giving him the job. And then slowly making Jerome earn it from him. Just no more Carter.
That Josh Jackson trade was colossally stupid at the time and continues to pay “dividends.” Melton would have been a really good backup for us.

His defense is so average and he is worse than 75% of the fans in the arena at running an offense.

Something needs to change with this team. Whether a lineup change (bench Saric) or a trade, we obviously need a shake up. Doesn’t have to be drastic, just needs to be thought out.

Strangely I'm excited to see what happens in the second half.
In spite of the horrific first half, the guys didn't give up. As mad at them for the first half fiasco, I'm proud that then didn't just give up and actually made a game out of it and forced LeBron and AD back into the game.

Throw in the white towel and walk off the court. Someone is going to get ejected or
hurt in this cluster****
RUBIO! In our most important 7 game stretch... with a healthy roster we should win every game, so I was hoping for a 6-1 stretch. Now, let's hope to break even?
