We don't really have anybody out there who can score besides Booker. That may be a problem.

It would be nice for some guys like Grayson, Tyus, Dunn, maybe Bol to step up in a game like this.

Didn't think we were playing poorly in the 1st, just missing shots. Didn't catch the 2nd qtr but Book got hot and looks more like himself. But yea, we don't have much offense outside of Book.

We basically cannot stop Giannis at all. He's just charging to the basket over and over.

Suns go on a little mini-run here with Giannis on the bench. We're now within 12 points at 95-83. Now if only Milwaukee would leave him out the rest of the 4th, we might have a chance here.

Who's the last good big defensive forward on the Suns anyway?

Boris Diaw? And he wasn't really that big.

Nice run here for the Suns! Within 7 here at 104 - 97 after back-to-back 3s from Grayson and Gillespie.

Well, I gotta give 'em credit. The Suns are not giving up. Grayson Allen has come alive hitting several big 3s, Gillespie has been great with 15 points, and Nick Richards is using his size and strength and footwork to make a positive impact. Tyus also has 16 points on 6-8 shooting.

Maybe. We haven’t even really had a power forward period since Amare left 15 years ago.
