Booker hoists up a prayer and it's answered.

Who wouldn't enjoy playing against a team that doesn't play defense like the Suns.

Dunn and Oso bring the hustle on the defensive end. We have enough scorers on the offensive side. I want to see more of the rookies playing together with whatever three scorers are out there.

It seems like when Oso is out there our scoring goes up. Maybe it simplifies the offense taking Nurk out of the equation?

Bud looks like he really enjoys coaching the Suns. (sarcasm)

it's been this way for a minute - energy as a whole picks up with oso in over nurk - dunn is just his own vortex - crazy energy

I think the Suns need some more time off.

Kind of crazy thought but the Suns would likely be in a much better spot right now had they traded for Collins instead of KD 2 years back. A deal for Collins was reportedly in place as the backup plan. What that would have entailed is questionable but it wouldn't have cost 4 1's, 2 swaps, the Twins, and Crowder's expiring deal.

True. Collins wouldn't be able to take the pressure off Book being double teamed. We still would have had to search for another scorer, but we would have a PF.

we suck at challenges this year - perhaps more than i can ever remember - we burn them in non obvious bad calls - and at inopportune times instead of saving them
