    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    I was surprised to see his numbers so pedestrian, especially the rebounds (just 8???), but I didn't closely watch the second half. He looked good to me first half, though. I was pleased with his offensive rebounding.

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    This game hurts worse than the last game. At least last game, we could look and say, "Not enough effort. Play harder, play tougher D, etc." This game, I'm forced to say, "Not enough talent." Not so easy to overcome that.

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    This game drained me. So many wide open misses. All those misses led to Book and KD pressing and trying to make stupid shots. I kept thinking, surely KD will pick it up...then Book started looking tired, and I knew it was over. I don't know if I have any hope that we pull out a win in game 3...

    This is really starting to annoy me. Suns can't let it bother them, but, man! So frustrating.

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    Even though we are tossing up brick after brick, I feel much better about this game than last. The shooting will come around (Please, shooting, come around!).

    These referees are a complete joke.

    I don't often watch the Grizz, but Morant must be better than he's showing here. All I see from him is out of control athleticism that hogs the ball on every possession.

    Playoffs: Clippers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-25-2023 - Game 5

    Thanks. I'm hoping we can cut down on our minutes against teams with weaker benches than the Clippers, but we'll see. Maybe all the rest our injured players have had throughout the season will benefit us in the end.

    Playoffs: Clippers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-25-2023 - Game 5

    Yeah, I understand it on a per game basis, but I keep on hearing about some kind of cumulative effect and I'm wondering if that's a real thing. Also, I could be off but it seems like we're playing our best in the fourth quarter so I'm not sure the minutes thing has been hurting us at all yet.

    Playoffs: Clippers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-25-2023 - Game 5

    Something that's been on my mind... I keep seeing people lamenting the minutes that starters are playing, and it has me wondering long-term do five or so more minutes of a game actually put that much more wear on an athlete's body? If I'm playing hard for 30 minutes versus playing hard for 40...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Clippers Thursday game thread 4-20-2023 - Game 3

    This feels the same way to me as the Pelicans series last year--this feeling that we ought to be playing better and putting the Clippers away, but we just can't seem to do it. What had me alarmed by KD's play tonight was the turnovers. You could tell he was really bothered by the Clippers'...

    Draymond should be out of this game. Ridiculous.... And there he goes.

    Clippers @ Suns Sunday game thread 4-9-2023

    What will be fascinating is that this game will quite possibly determine whether we face the Clippers or the Warriors in the first round. If the Clippers and Warriors either both beat or both lose to the Trail Blazers this weekend, our game will decide the seeding--if the Clippers beat us, it...

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    I agree. I think the hardest part about watching Mikal on the Nets is that it seems like he's playing a role he shouldn't be playing. Maybe it will help his game in the long run, though, and he can be that number two or three guy on a championship team someday. Or maybe he surprises me and...

    Yeah, Nets fans are not happy with Dinwiddie after that game.

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    I love Mikal, but to me he just doesn't pass the eye test as a number one option, and I don't think he ever will. I freely admit I could be wrong, but it reminds me of watching Shawn Marion on offense. Not that they play similarly, but there is a bit of something missing that would prevent them...

    Suns @ Mavericks Sunday game thread 3-5-2023

    I still don't get it. Are you supposed to talk trash when you're losing? No. When you're winning? Apparently not. I guess the only time you can talk trash is when the game is tied. I get your point about talk being cheap, but Book does back it up with great play 99% of the time. Yeah, we bombed...

    Suns @ Mavericks Sunday game thread 3-5-2023

    This national narrative about Booker talking trash (1) because his "big brother, KD" is there and (2) only after the game is in hand is ridiculous on so many levels. Not even mentioning the fact that he wasn't talking to Luka in this instance, Booker has always talked a ton of trash. I can't...

    Man! Bridges had a great opportunity for the game-winning layup and just missed it. I really wanted to see it go in for him in his first game for the Nets.

    Maybe a bit off topic, but I thought some of you might enjoy this (surely some will think it's just stupid, too). The guys has a whole series, starting from week one. Pretty funny.
