We might be getting a preview of the Suns point guards next season.

The coaching staff finally woke up.

Increased defensive effort, expanded rotation. Stupid turnovers and lazy defensive rebounding keep staying.

Tyty stroking the 3 at 38% in his 11 g-league games at 6.9 attempts per. Not sure why that isn't translating to the NBA

Everyone seems happy with the expanded rotation. I need to see some joy.

That is the one consistent beef I have had with the last three coaches. The season is L-O-N-G. You can't stick with a short rotation for 82 games. It's not like we don't have guys without skills on the bench. As a coach you have to trust guys to give you minutes. Everyone knows our big three guys get hurt. You have to give these other guys confidence they will get minutes.

Ryan Dunn doesn't look like the same player as earlier in the season.
IDK if he's lost confidence since the three shot isn't dropping. Earlier in the season he was driving to the basket. He seemingly isn't looking to drive to the rim for some reason. We need him to do that probably more than shooting the three. You are right, he's just not producing like we have seen before.

I'm hoping after the All-Star break his game returns.

Yes, he lost some of his explosiveness and elevation, probably will get back to his former himself after full recovery and conditioning.

It's what I'm thinking as well so I'm not overly concerned.

We talk about Dunn and Oso, but I'm happy with whoever scouted Ty Ty and Gillespie as well.

Props to KD for playing tonight I figured he’d be out.

And he seemed happy doing it as well. Actually, the whole team seems to be in a better frame of mind.

We saw from the last sequence rebounds and TOs that Richards lacks good court awareness due to experience.
