Shots are obviously falling right now, shooting lights out. Even if we weren’t hitting them, you can see the difference of the ball movement, and off ball movement. Defense is night and day as well. Looks like a team, game 2, but love what I’m seeing.

Team seems to have been told something by the coach and LISTENED.

Here’s what I ultimately think is what will hold this team back… our two best players are ball stoppers/play stupid. They’re both GREAT scorers, but neither is a leader, neither is a floor general who can players great shots when it comes down to the wire and neither is the type of player that can get to the hole at the end of games.

That said, this has been a fun half so far.

First free throws of the night for Phoenix
Shooting a lot of threes were not gonna get as many free throws, but that’s ridiculous

Now we’re playing sloppy
I don’t know why Nurkic decided to bring the ball up

Jeebus a bit late for that timeout.

It’s early but I tire of Nurk, last season. Again this season.

Nurk, having a bad night, he’s been solid in the past in dishing the ball. I’d also be happy if he quit shooting 3’s as well.

Nurkic wasn't just throwing the ball away almost every time he was touching it there for a stretch.
