    That was a fun game.

    Suns got two players (Booker and Durant) that are down right unguardable, and got two bigs (Eubanks and Nurkić) that play totally different that they can utilize accordingly.

    John Collins was a great pickup. He’s rebounding on both ends like a menace and finishing really well in the paint. Remind me a bit of Gonzaga Brandon Clarke.

    That might have been the worst defense I’ve seen for 99% of a game. Good thing we don’t play the jazz for awhile cause Clarkson js so good.

    Best game I’ve watched all season.

    Keyonte George is our guard for the future.

    KD is insane and I can’t even be mad at what he did to us tonight.

      Clarkson was phenomenal too. I wasn’t even mad at Phoenix’s defense most of the time, he was just making difficult shots. I was impressed with the backcourt.

    The distinct impression I’ve been getting from watching all the in-season tournament games is that NBA players are such competitive psychopaths that if you offer them anything shiny that no other team gets they’ll ball out like it’s game 7 on any given weekday in november.

      Season game is a marathon. You dont need to be competitive all the time. You just need to hold on and play hard in the play offs. This in game tourney is a sprint though.

      It makes things interesting imo

    If Booker is going to be Point Book, he needs to learn how to initiate the offense earlier, and not treat every possession like it’s the final play of the quarter.

    Maybe watch Steve Nash footage and figure out how to dribble around and through the defense until the defense breaks down or you have an easy shot.

      I don’t want to sound mean but you just ratted yourself out as someone who doesn’t know what the hell they’re looking at

      Book has pretty much mastered the art of orchestrating snap and double drag sets and wrinkles that make the Suns the highest offensive rated team in the league in games that he plays in.

      Do you think sets are usually done with 15+ seconds of time left in the shot clock? The only way to play faster is to play in transition like those 7SOL suns and that would be ridiculous given the elite shot making that KD and Book are capable of.

      And for what it it’s worth, the Suns are running different sets when KD sits, so you’re just… ya know, wrong.

        Oh noes!

        Do snap and double drag sets and wrinkles require waiting until there is 6 seconds or less on the shot clock to start?
