they aren’t. Suns just aren’t playing very well.
As soon as I sent that post I saw DA jack up a stupid three. Turning the game off for awhile.

Suns need one more big man that is mobile who can score and rebound. It starts with Crowder not being a traditional power forward.

Halftime:

Suns 56 - Kings 53

Poor execution by Suns on last play before half.

The Kings play excellent defense they swarm and rotate well. God I wish we drafted Fox.

I love me some Cam Johnson

Ayton playing his best game so far

Booker looks lost on this new team.

Booker and Paul still developing rhythm. Book has looked more comfortable next to Payne. Familiarity.

I kinda feel like we’re going to think Crowder doesn’t belong in he starting lineup after this season... and that we overpaid to get him.

Crowder has loads of value in certain match-ups (Lakers/Bucks/Celtics).

With a good second quarter, the Suns are down by three at the half.

But they are constantly playing catchup, just as last night.

Eddie Johnson brought up a good point about Deandre.

His hands are not that big! Suns management needs to realize
that and play him accordingly. Now I know why I have been
advocating that they move him to Power Forward.

Especially now that they have been encouraging him to take
3-point shots.

Like Paul, Crowder is another player who has lost a step, especially defensively.

This team, and especially the starting line-up, is lacking in speed and athleticism.

Sure would be nice to have Oubre. Wait.

Crowder is really a small forward playing power forward. It means the Suns need more size and mobility from their bench. I was hoping Smith might be able to help but he doesn't look close to ready.

Suns seem to have too many players who play below the rim.

ESPN.com shows Suns UP by 3.

Suns don't have an inside game.
