Tyus is such a cone on defense smh
Just trade him for whatever you can get. Abandon the PG thoughts. Start Beal again, use Gillespie at the backup spot. No point in continuing this same broken rotation.

Suns are better without KD jamming up the offense!
The play sure is prettier. It's not hey everyone stand around let me fight my guy to get in front of him with 10 seconds left in the clock, and be my emergency release if I can't break down my guy or if I get doubled. Then be expected to make a good play with 5 seconds left and catching the ball while contested. And that's if I don't bobble the ball and throw it away. And then make up for my lack of interest in the intangibles because I'm a 15x All Star and too cool for that shit mannnnnnnn.


Fucking KD is still a sun. Fuck me. I fucking hate him as a basketball player.

Oh com'on. A lot of the shots going down today were the same looks as 2 nights ago. Very little to do with KD being in the offense.

Bet on OKC. No reason to pass up this opportunity.
I was surprised how many here picked the Suns to win tonight.

If we can keep it close and not get embarrassed, I’d be very happy.
That's we've come to.

I feel like we always let teams run down the court and get an easy shot when the clock is running out…seems to happen every time
Yep. Lousy end to the first half.

3 turnovers and a missed shot is more of what I was expecting from this game.

Get Tyus off this team. involved in almost every negative play to begin the half.

All this dude does is dribble for 15 seconds then passes to Book with like 12-10 secs to make something work.

Tyus is becoming guard version of Nurk.

I get it, Jones is mediocre at best. If there were a chance to trade him for something, I think we'd have heard about it.

He's playing on a veteran minimum for a reason.

Tyus been SGA primary defender this whole 3rd quarter. What the actual fuck.

Yeah, IDK. Royce at least got him to miss some shots in the first quarter.

I don’t think that’s by design…Thunder push every time and SGA hunts Tyus. When you don’t make shots, you can’t set the defense.

That's right. Not like OKC is taking the ball out of the basket.

This game is the difference between a team that plays with heart vs one without one.

Ish needs to bring in an actual nba executive to sheer this ship in the offseason. The roster construction on this team is so fucking awful. Bob Myers is right there.
