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.

Nurk has made some awful passes to back cutters.

AD flops. Would really like espn to show some replays here.


Would also like espn to shut up!

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

Nurk with another crap pass which turns into another turnover.

Nurk is starting to drive me crazy with his stupid passes.

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.

It looks like turnovers are contagious.
