suns had 14 turnovers last night

kd had 5 book had 3 oneale had 2

bench these mother don't give a funkers

dunn had 0 turnovers - gillespie had 0 turnovers

oso had 1 turnover but was also a +2 on the +/-

richards had 1 turnover but was a +3

book was a -13
kd was a -12
beal was a -12

if the vets don't care or aren't producing bench them - bud's banished players all season long but he's afraid of kd - straight up plain and simple this man does not want to be known for beefing with star talent - beal don't give a funk - he already got benched but he already paid paid paid - bought that house - he's going the same place the suns are - freakin no wheres

kd had 5 turnovers - we lead the league in games decided by less than 10 points and this dude can't quit throwing it to the other team - maddening

but devin booker - you're the most disappointing

wtf is wrong with you - stand up for yourself - with your play and with your hands

you've been punked by ant and luka for so long others are lining up to disrespect you - to put you in your place knock you down and step over you - what happened to you man - from wolf to sheep

there is no kendrick in our big 3 - we got drake - a narcissistic snoop dog and some other buster with chronic laryngitis - the rap game has passed us by

Durant had 5 turnovers against just 2 assists, that's a huge problem. Booker had 3 turnovers against 11 assists, that's a good ratio. And I'm not arguing against the idea of benching him, just your"evidence".

But bench him or not, someone needs to figure out where the real Devin is hiding so we can get rid of his subpar clone and begin to rehab the original's value. Our current version is worth about half what we're paying him, no one's going to sell the farm to acquire him. And we need superstar value when we do move Booker.

I don't either. We occasionally get glimpses of the real thing but sometimes it seems like he's never practiced a shot in his life.
The issue for Book most of this season has been the timing of his scoring. Those glimpses come when the game is out of hand or early. When it comes down to critical times at the end of quarters or halfs? I see lot's of bad decisions. We have seen this Book before. Early in his career he was an empty stat guy. When he is point Book he tries to do too much. As much as people complain here about KD having great stats but no results? Book is just as guilty.

Part of the issue with Booker is they've made him the PG again. Beal may be the one to bring the ball up, when he's healthy, but Book is the one initiating the offense for the majority of the Suns possessions. It's to the detriment of the team as a whole to continually push him to PG. He's a decent playmaker but his ball handling is what keeps him from being a true combo guard like a SGA or Cade.

i think it's mental af - for really tho - 4 or 5 years ago book was an assassin - he's lost his confidence now - he accepts defeat

whatever people have that's in them - when ish gets tough and getting tough is the only way to fight thru it - that's what the greats do from jordan to kobe from luka to ant - they don't give up they get mad and play even harder - one thing they don't do is get picked on

im just tired of it man - i haven't seen book in years - not sure we'll see him again - he cowers and acts oblivious to the disrespect put on him instead of letting it anger/motivate him into finding that next level - im not sure it's ever going to happen - he might have a better chance at growing boobs - devin booker doesn't have a war face
