JJ may be the whelihan effect. The Chargers had a QB named Craig Whelihan who was the most horrible QB in games. Someone finally asked a player why the coach kept playing this guy. The player said, you should see our practices, this guy is amazing!

Warren 3 points 3 rebounds with Booker out. How does that happen?

These guys honestly aren't trying. I see no hustle out there. Ayton is a monster but that's it.

It's good to see Bridges hitting that 3 point shot.

so, while I agreed with 1sun that our PG situation was atrocious, I'm pretty sure I told him it was laughable that we'd win less than 21 games.

He must have the last laugh on that one now. This team is ATROCIOUS. Yikes.

No laughing matter. The front office, if there even is one, needs to do something about this mess.

Yeah, we should be neck and neck with the Grizzlies in this game. Whoever is doing our defense, we need to bring in someone new! Whatever it is, leads to drives to the hoop consistently.

Bender's defense is so superior to Anderson. He should start just for that.

I like what I saw from Okobo tonight looking forward. He had 12 points and 2 assists.

Weird game. Our PGs were pretty good and Ayton was great but the wings (our supposed strength) were atrocious.

The veteran wings are not getting the job done. The Suns could really use a power forward.

Bender and Anderson shot almost identically well from 3 last year.

Ayton should get a post touch on every possession he's on the floor for. He makes good things happen, even if it's not for him. I can't say that for anybody else on the team right now.

Rotations/substitutions/minutes...what gives and who decides these in game decisions?

My gosh they’re horrible. I’m okay (for now) with Anderson and Ariza starting, but how long they stay in is what I’m concerned about.

What’s with our transition defense too?


Asking these questions for a friend.

You could see him hesitating on the 3 just like he did last year.

Seriously did Ariza play the entire 1st?

Did Warren finally enter the game in the 2nd?
