Game Day: Suns (16-18) @ Hornets (7-27), Tues 1/7/24

Yea there's no point in putting Beal on the bench just to play him the same 30 minutes with the starters. Same with Nurk. They just gotta go.

Beal, I'd keep. Nurkic HAS to go.

The Suns are lacking speed and athleticism at the power positions (PF and C). Plumlee is okay, but the Suns need more.

This song sums up what I would like to happen to this team:

Wish Okogie or Oso had played more tonight.

Interesting to see what Suns Reddit is saying about you game. Hint, they are not impressed.

What a joke…nothing else to say.

The good: Booker had a bounce-back game with 39 points and 10 assists.

The bad: He seems to have achieved this by sucking out the other players' bball skills, Monstars-style. KD had 26 empty-calorie points. Beal had 10 off the bench. Nobody else cracked double-figures. The team seemed lazy and pathetic for most of the game. As usual we have no chance against teams that are bigger, stronger, tougher, or really give any effort at all toward wanting to win the game.

I do like Jimmy Butler, but this team is far, far from being a contender, and if you think one trade for one new player can fix it, you're nuts. This team is toast and they need to blow it up, pronto.

Even though Booker had a decent overall game I'm pretty sure he missed a bunch of shots at the end that would have made a difference.

I remember a wide open three he missed late that would have made it interesting

I can't wait to see what BS the players spew after the game.

There’s a yeast infection going through the team and it’s hurting their play.

WHY ARE WE YELLING

WHY ARE WE YELLING

Because our expensive team sucks. It's a real drag. Deep breaths...

This particular yell was about something else, but that may be contributing to my mood.

These "stars" need to be surrounded by the right PERSONALITIES. we keep signing nonfat yogurt role players.

Mother of god…

We are playing 2 centers who shouldn’t be playing the NBA anymore.


I know everyone is down but I don’t think people realize how detrimental they are to this team. Just having someone like Nick Richards would make a night and day difference. Most of our lineups are 3 small guards playing with centers who are completely trash. Oso shouldn’t be losing minutes to any of these dudes.


This game is on Bud, going away from everything that has been working. Oso is clearly our best big, play him! He has flaws but he is still is our best center on this roster, him and Dunn bring so much energy that Nurk’s bum ass doesn’t and Mason’s old ass can’t anymore. Play them!

The center position is a problem for us but even upgrading it won't solve our biggest issue which is having a real floor general on the court who can put it all together and make others better. And the offensive spacing and flow is still so jacked that it'll be Richards catching the 20ft out in the corner with 4 on the shotlock instead of Plumlee.

[specialsauce]

The biggest problem with the offensive flow is KD. He gets his but the iso ball is to the detriment of the rest of the team.

Getting rid of Beal will fix our D potentially, but nothing is going to change our style of offense as long as KD is a sun. This is what his OKC and BKN teams did.
