looks like the suns could use the break

The Suns are only shooting 40.7%. The Magic, 50.7%.

Okogie sucks

oso had a hell of a coming out tho - been waiting to see what the young man can do - we're not talking all star but we are talking defense and offensive production in the paint

 

[BirdGangThing]

really glad we got off to that hot start early in the season

Final:

Magic 109 - Suns 99

There will be a eulogy for the Suns after the game.

I might have been a little quick to put the admittedly pie in the sky ceiling of Kawhi Leonard on Ryan Dunn.

Suns played above my expectation for the game. Oso, Okogie, Morris positively surprised me with their games. Plumlee was solid with his usual shortcoming. Royce had been bad for the last 5 games, no confidence in his shots. Allen and Tyus were too streaky, if either of them could shoot the 3s and FTs at their capable level! Booker's decison making has been odd by forcing too many pullup 3s. Generally, our game plan could use more optimization to create open shots for hot hands, our ball too often ends in cold hands like RO and Dunn in this game, rarely in GA and JO's in the 2nd half when both were on. Our rooks Oso and Dunn have good and bad traits and need maturation time.

Not sure how but the Suns can pull off a deal for some size or who that size is but we're headed towards another disappointing 1st round exit if nothing is done. We've given the entire league a blueprint of how to dismantle us. The only team in the top 10 that I think we might be able to beat in a series are the Clippers, and that isn't a gimme.

The writing has been on the wall all season.

It's a shame because the Suns weakness at point guard has been fixed, especially when Gillespie returns.

He is on a two-way contract.

Robert Williams which would be the swing of all swings.
