Booker and Ayton have 21 points each. Jackson has 12.

The second time tonight Booker has missed back-to-back free throw attempts.

If Ayton needs to be told how to guard Robin Lopez we have more problems than anyone has touched on this year.

He is a 19 year old rookie who has been playing organized ball less than a decade. Maybe, just maybe, Igor needs to be able to do his freaking job.

Worst...coach...ever...

Or ayton should do his job. Coaching shouldn't need to teach you common sense

Josh Jackson might be the only player I've ever seen with a negative Bb iq. He goes beyond zero

He didn't have that problem BEFORE Watson and Igor got their incompetent hands on him. He actually was one of the smarter players in college ball.

Oh make no mistake this is a tank game for Phoenix

There should never be a "tank game"...EVER. That is how losing cultures perpetuate themselves. No team has ever been successful as a result of deliberately losing. Even the Sixers, famous for it, got...Jahlil Okafor and Markelle Fultz for their tanking efforts, and didn't turn it around until they STOPPED tanking.

You want to know who tanks? The "Hedake" Smiths of the world.

I could never root for a team that tanks. Never.

Doing his part.

I am starting to think the Suns might be better off trading Booker in a Larry Nance type trade. He seems too comfortable just putting up individual stats, team performance be damned.

This is basketball strategy, not common sense. A head coach's primary job. The teacher teaches. The student shouldn't be counted on to teach himself. Otherwise, what are we paying the teacher for?

He gives up position in the post getting pushed around and the guy hes guarding is only doing one thing repeatedly (move to the right, baby hook shot). Theres no strategy involved. Hell instincts should take over at a certain point

He hasn't been playing basketball his entire life. He doesn't have natural instincts. He needs to be taught.

Well let us know what new board your joining.

How the !@#%^& can you, or anyone for that matter, be satisfied and content with a team you root for actually trying to lose?!?!?
