I wonder if the Suns can get up for the Warriors on Saturday.

Schroder is allowed to dribble all over the court like a Harlem Globetrotter.

Embarrassing for the Suns.

We have several legitimate excuses, all fairly minor but legitimate nonetheless. But no way can those excuses explain away losing at home to the short handed Nets. Embarrassing.

Eddie said something to the effect the Nets couldn't play at this same pace all season.

Well, what is the Suns excuse with a full roster?

I would have been happy if they could have beat the Timberwolves with only Booker, less Beal and Durant.

It's not the best news on Bradley Beal.

He "tweaked" his left ankle in 4th quarter. Also, his left calf was tightening up per Duane Rankin tweet.

I see even the sports writers are in a great mood.

Is this what happened in game 7 of the 2021-22 playoffs against the Mavericks?

Our arena is just too comfortable for some players on the opposition. Seems like there’s a guy who always goes off that shouldn’t

There is always going to be some relatively unknown player that goes off. Suns have to be tougher.

Kevin Durant talks about the Nets. It's not like they were unknown.

They won their last two games at the Kings and Warriors.

Good these refs are ********! They aggressively hands all over us not getting calls the same on both ends total joke!

Quit blaming the officials. Every game the Suns lose or is close you are here whining about the officiating. There is no conspiracy against the Suns. Neither the league or the refs work against the Suns. It was comical but you've beaten that narrative into the ground.

I need to dig a little but I'd wager the Suns lose almost every time KD leads the team in turnovers. He never just leads in TO's either, he's usually twice the amount of #2. Tonight he had 7 and #2 was Booker with 3.

I'd need to check games individually it seems to get a list indicating whether KD led the team in TO's or not. Decided to go by 5 or more. In 23 games over the last season and start of this one the Suns are 10-13 in those outings. Not as drastic as I thought but still bad, especially in comparison to our overall record.

They're better than last year, but deep down they have the same fatal flaws.

They're not nearly as good as they think they are. As a result they don't play hungry, they don't take "lesser" opponents seriously.

They're extremely injury prone. I cannot fathom this team making it through the 8 week playoff grind with all these glass cannons staying upright, we can hardly make it through 4 games.
