Fourth quarter woes continue.

Has Kevin Durant always been this dog shit at holding the ball or is this just a Phoenix? Dude always losing the ball.
He's always had an elite ball handler with him.

Really frustrating seeing guys get to the rim just to pass out to 3 pt shooter. Take the shot.

Yep, trying to get it back all at once and instead getting nothing.

I feel like I'm watching reruns with this crap. Another game given away with a lousy 4th quarter. Hurry back, Armani.

Well, this does suck. Like Cap said, so much optimism before the season and now this. I appreciate those preaching patience but this is hard.

You can also see where SGA learned from Paul on how to control the end of a game.

We're a really good three quarter team.

We made two baskets in the 4th. Two. We were outscored 31-13. Not good.

Just think what our record would be if games were only 3 quarters! Think about it Adam Silver.

If Booker continues to miss time we'll continue to be mediocre team. Durant is worn down by the 4th and if they double him all 4th Q we struggle with no way to make the other team pay. Beal obviously isn't himself because he's supposed to be that guy but he's been flat out bad since returning. Backs are a tricky thing. I should know.

Without Gordon our main offensive outlet when Durant is doubled is.. Grayson Allen who clearly didn't have it tonight either.

Not telling you guys anything you don't already know but 4/5 of our starting line up was not good. Can't win that way. Shot 38% from the field. Won't win that way either.

Booker can't come back soon enough.

Never seen a team fumble or mishandle the ball more than this team. Not going to win many games turning the ball over 20 times.

Beal has a lot more Wizards stank on him than I imagined. He looks like Terrance Ross out there.

I don't know what happened to Okogie in the off-season but he's regressed substantially.

This plodding pace isn't helping either. Might be time to throw Saben Lee out there in the second unit. Goodwin isn't comfortable running an offense.

TJ McConnel hasn't been playing much in Indiana.

We can't just wait for Booker to come back. We will have some players with injuries at some point or another.
But we seems like a pickup game team. Can't we run some plays?

I'm taking a different approach to this pre-game prediction. We're gonna get embarrassed.
It didn't work. Embarrassed again.

Scary to think we can’t even beat mediocre teams without Booker.
