We have really efficient scorers. Ball possession and rebounding, and we could win most games, We beat ourselves, technically.

There is a slight pulse. It's a 1 point game.

Oubre tried to brick the 2nd free throw.
The ref says he stepped over the line,
but EJ says he did not.

Then the Suns lose by 4.

As hard as Oubre threw that at the basket, he would have to be the Flash to cross the line before it hit the rim!

He didn't.

Actually Oubre took a shuffle step back with one foot before going after the ball after it hit the rim. He leaned over the line but didn't enter the lane.

Monty has to be telling our guys this, we have really efficient scorers. Ball possession and rebounding, and we could win most games, We beat ourselves, technically.

I keep looking at our top three scorers and the shooting percentage as a group is really efficient. We stop the turn overs and second chance baskets by the other team and we win, How can they NOT see that>

He had confidence in his shot early and was afraid to shoot in the 2nd half. Bridges and Rubio both hesitated often and it was a killer.

On the bright side it does look like the backup pg hole has been filled

You could see the impact of the All-Star snub this game, especially down the stretch with Booker.

Mark my words. This is the beginning of the end of Booker as a Sun.

Ayton sucked first half

booker choked with all his shots at the end of the game

This team will never get anywhere significant with Rubio as it’s starter

if bridges never develops offensively it’s a tremendous failure

make no mistake the suns choked this game away.

Way to soon to say that.

there is a reason Utah wanted an upgrade.

bridges will get better, how much and how soon are the question.

He was looking fine offensively until he was benched after his breakout game...
