If a guy posts up down low, a smaller player can't play behind him.

As much as we have needed Book? He has been burned for at least 5 threes now. Booker is hurting us defensively as much as he is helping us offensively.

Yup. He and Ayton have been total crap the last two games. And CP3 hasn’t been much better.

CP3 has been the worst out of all 3 of them.

Ayton has 16/11 on 50% in game 3

CP3 had 4 points and 7 turnovers in game 3. Hrs looking every bit his age

I'm glad I'm not watching this disaster. Why on earth do they play so bad like they just dont want to win? We all know they can dominate every team but they always seem to shut it off. Just wierd.

Book and ayton are seriously my Achilles heel to watching more of this team throughout the year.. they are literally a positive (offense)with a negative(defense) most games.

I am not worried as much about the Suns offense as the defensive. It doesn’t matter how hot we get if we can’t stop them.

Monty…it’s your move. Prove you can make some in-game adjustments.

Disagree he is the only one aggressively playing and taking it to the rim! We aren’t even in this game if not for Booker. Our game is sustainable, them shooting 70% from three is not. What have they made 15 threes and only a 7 point lead? Just keep chipping away wear them out!

The switches and lack of movement on the defensive end will kill this team the remainder of the year... We're getting destroyed.

It's about the small things boys....small things. The things this team doesn't seem to wanna do.
