It's the little things anymore. I hope to see Quincy Acy tonight.

Melton needs to get all the way to the rim like that more often, that little pull-up shot of his needs a lot of work. Jackson has played well, hope he keeps it up.

Suns up by 6 mid-way through the 1st quarter. Good start!

Acy in during the last couple of minutes of the 1st quarter.

I would rather have seen something other than a 3-point attempt for his first offensive set.

He should be a good addition for our bench, though.

Justin Jackson is another player I enjoyed watching in college.

That was an obvious missed basket interference on Giles despite Eddie's wimpy "could have been called either way".

Oubre seems to match up well playing against the Kings.

The Suns with 13 assists on their first 15 field goals. With DBook not playing.

Hmmm.

And we are already being outrebounded by 10. Whatever the overall spreads are in average we always get killed on the boards to start a game. I’m back to believing we just suck on the boards.

Kings are relentless from 3 point range.

Kings do not lose anything with their bench.

I wish the Suns had not traded the rights to Bogdon.

When the Kings drafted Georgios Papagiannis at #13 in the 2016 draft I thought the Suns were going the right direction and the Kings were on the wrong path.

They turned the table on the Suns.

Sometimes the Kings play reminds me of SSOL.

I can't be sure of this, but it seems like the Kings opened the lead in the second quarter when our starters were back in.

They outscored the Suns 40-18 during the 2nd quarter.
