Devin is polite and played for the Olympic team. What does it take?
No one outside Suns fans think he’s polite. Most NBA fans think he’s a bit of bitch who talks too much trash without being able to back it up.

Especially after the whole Luka debacle a couple years ago.

I'm looking at the now.

Give Booker some time off. Everyone else gets it.
Devin Booker is supposed to be in the prime of his career. if he’s an actual superstar, you’d think the team wouldn’t be one of the worst I’ve ever seen when it’s missing KD like it does this season.

Opponents drive to the basket way too easy. It's a defensive and player personnel issue.

Duncan Robinson hits that three against the Robinhood background. That would make a great pic for him.

We know Devin can't carry the Suns on his own. I'm not going to pretend otherwise. He needs the other stars to help carry the weight. If they are not going too, give Booker some time off as well.

Please, someone tell the Suns GM they have a hole in the middle of their defense.

Every role player has stepped up tonight. Booker and Beal have stunk on ice.

Combined, Beale and Booker are 11 of 40 from the field.
Sorry man… when “the guy” goes down is when dudes like Book and Beale are supposed to step up and carry the load.

I’m outta words about these two failing to play a role in getting the team to step up at times like this…

Was a game. Beal goofs. Lead back to 8. Timeout.

It would be nice to have a player that doesn't miss games and went to the Finals.

It must be frustrating as a player, to know matter how well you play offensively, they can't make stops.

Bud had a talk with the team. The effort is there. I'm not talking about just tonight's game.

In the NBA, every team deals with injuries to a key player or two…
But Beale and Book are supposed to be able to take over and more than adequately fill the KD void.
