Shamet was abused on defense and he sucks again on offense.

These guys both are just awful.

It looks like some players didn't come ready to play in the 1st half.

I hope it can be corrected but I don't like the demeanor of the team thus far.

The Spurs pass the ball around and look for the open shot and the defense is slow to react.

Shooting 15.8% from 3 yeesh
This is like the Mavs game a few weeks ago. Couldn’t make anything from 3, then came back and won. Now we’ve got a dogfight. And I listen, I’ll admit Book is my favorite player but we need to get Mikal more involved offensively. He’s shooting 80% from the field and 50% from 3. If Cam is off, which has been a rarity, let’s get Mikal going.

Bottom line, the Suns backup guards can't go scoreless.

Cam for three but Mikal could have layed the ball up.

I swear bridges is so clueless when he drives. He doesn’t know what to do when jumps but ends up looking to pass out.

Agreed. This is gonna come down to the 4th quarter. Can’t give these guys confidence. We need to shoot 3’s only off dribble penetration. Our midrange is working. Book, forget the 3’s and cut to the basket.

Sometimes reminds me of Boris Diaw that way.

Suns defense is not there. If they want to win they need to find it.

If there's one team I hate losing to it's the Spurs. Really frustrating to be losing to a depleted Spurs team.

Spurs still find a way to get away with “screens”

Not watching, but we just can’t get over in this game, huh?

Spurs are running a weave and getting open looks. If the Suns don't tighten their defense they are in danger of losing.

When the Suns don't play defense it's UGLY.

The way the Suns are playing on defense it doesn't look good.

All streaks come to an end. 9 in a row with all the injuries has been impressive. We need our guys back to start another.
