Watched on DVR. Man, some really stupid turnovers by Book, Plumlee and Grayson down the stretch. I don't fault them for wanting KD to take that last shot but I wish there was a tad more time to work it into a better shot. I also think they stuck with Plumlee way too long. Plumlee does some good things but every single time he has the ball in the paint towards to the top of the key he can't do anything. He ends up passing it out. It bogs down the offense because he has no driving moves.

Yeah turnovers were a problem but I don't recall any actual turnovers by Booker down the stretch - his turnovers occurred earlier in the game. IMO he played pretty well the last quarter and if he'd played like that all game we would have won handily.

BTW, from late in the 3rd quarter on; Devin shot 4 for 7 from the field, 2 for 4 from the 3 point line, had 1 assist and 0 turnovers. Prior to that he shot 5 for 14, 1 for 4 from 3 point range and had 5 turnovers to match his 5 assists.

There should have been at least three technical fouls if they were going to call one on Durant. Spencer and Bane both earned one as well.

All these players were out for the Grizzlies last night and the Suns couldn't handle them.

By Kellan Olson, Arizona Sports:

All-Star Jaren Jackson Jr. (left ankle sprain) was out after having his way with the Suns all year. Beyond him, rotation players Santi Aldama (right calf strain), Brandon Clarke (right knee soreness), Zach Edey (right knee soreness), Luke Kennard (low back soreness) and Vince Williams Jr. (right foot soreness) were also out.

By the way. It's official. Mr. Glass is his own epidemic. You can't rely on him for any stretch which sucks because when he is out there he can be effective. He is pointless though if you can't depend on him.
