    The closest he got was 18/11 on 50/40/89.9 He would have done that multiple times in this current league though. The league was quite slow paced still when he was with the Suns.

    Maybe a bit more complicated than that. An ugly win doesn't necessarily say much, but a close loss where we did a ton of things right and very little wrong would probably be a better sign. All that being said, I would take the ugly win at this point.

    We got Beal for scraps, doubt we could have gotten Siakam for those same scraps.

    What can (or should) be done to fix the team this season?

    What makes someone the top offense outside of efficiency? Fact is that playing at a slow pace means your opponent doesn't get as many shots either. We don't need the fastest pace. Philly is currently the top offense and they are just 13th in pace. I don't necessarily care about how fast the...

    What can (or should) be done to fix the team this season?

    The offense is specifically why I thought this team was one of the favorites for the title at the start of the season. They have the personnel to potentially be that top offense in the league and I think they can do just this with health and some minor tweaks from here on out. The defense is...

    That's the point though, he wasn't able to earn more than 21 MPG on a miserable team. That is a red flag if you are expecting him to be able to earn a big role on a team that has championship aspirations.

    In hindsight he did struggle to earn all that big of a role on one of the worst teams in the league last season. That should have been more of a red flag, but I think we overlooked it because of his measurables and 3P% last season.

    There is no specific percentage because how you play against good teams is significantly more important for a championship contender than how you play against bad teams. SSOL dominated bad teams all the time, but yet never even got to the finals (had their chances, but never pulled it off).

    It's implied in the complaint that we aren't dominating this game. Yes we have failed to dominate hardly any games this year, but just because we aren't dominating this game isn't some sort of bad sign either.

    Can't always dominate an opponent just because they are bad. There have been some bad rotations, but you also have Rozier making everything even when well defended.

    To be fair, Charlotte isn't any good, but then again we haven't exactly been looking good against bad teams this season either.

    I've had no issues with this in the two years I've had my cats. As long as you scoop them out regularly and change the litter entirely every few weeks I haven't had any issues with odors. The litter brand matters a lot with this as well.

    What can (or should) be done to fix the team this season?

    I still believe that continuity is one of the main reasons we are having these struggles. Add to that the fact that everyone is learning a new coaches concepts and that provides a recipe for some very ugly play. I am also curious if maybe Vogel came in and threw too much at these guys early on...

    Suns @ Rockets Wednesday game thread 12-27-2023

    A lineup of Book, KD, EG, GA and Nurk can be at least a mediocre defense (Suns are currently 18th on that end). The problem is that this team should be a good offensive team and yet they are 14th on that end. They could get away with mediocre defense if they have a top tier offense (which they...

    I take a game off and they actually play well, go figure.. Glad to see they actually had a good scoring performance for once. This team should have no issues with scoring.

    Suns hire Frank Vogel as next head coach

    They may very well have been looking for better options, but maybe Nurk was the best available and he is an upgrade in that specific area. :shrug:

    Suns hire Frank Vogel as next head coach

    Nurkic is a better shot blocker than Ayton. Or at least he averages .7 more per 36 than Ayton this year.

    I think you missed my point. My issue isn't that he's admitting it, but that it's a problem to begin with. It's concerning that a team with this amount of talent and experience is struggling to stay motivated and focused..

    Not necessarily something I want to be hearing about a veteran team. We should be mentally locked in every night and the nights where we aren't should be the outlier..

    Which is what makes seeing what we have with him and Beal together interesting. They will each take on some responsibilities of a PG, but neither will need to do it all. How well will they mesh once they get some court time together? That is the question. That and whether or not some of these...

    I know, but is it an issue because of our personnel or is it poor coaching? Obviously no CP, but we tended to play slow with him as well.

    This offense makes absolutely no sense. We should be dropping 120 with ease on most nights and yet we are barely getting over 100 against poor defenses. Is that a Vogel issue, because it's not a personnel issue IMO?
