nice offensive board oso fought for it - every possession counts in this one

 

[SactownSunsFan]

I really hope Dillon Brooks mentality rubs off on Book. The sooner the better.

End of 3rd quarter:

Timberwolves 82 - Suns 81

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

need to heat up from 3 in the 4th quarter and tighten up on d - we started defending there at the end

 

[Folster]

This team is in it going into the 4th. Last season's team would've packed it in already.

Book just gets really frustrated when the refs straight up suck ass and don’t call crap evenly! He needs to suck it up or just force more contact and make them blow the damn whistle! The refs are awful to anyone with eyes, one team is getting away with ridiculous contact and one is getting whistled for slight contact it’s actually a joke…

 

[GatorAZ]

They need to win these minutes with Ant out.

 

[Mainstreet]

This is a night where the Suns could use Green and Allen to take the pressure off Booker.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

can't believe we're only down by 1

 

[dscher]

He lacks top end athleticism and doesn't have the length or size to make up for it. He struggles against length and athleticism.

We've seen it for years. I don't mind his game. I mind our obsession with his skills.

 

[Chaplin]

There’s some questionable calls, but the ref’s involvement in this game is pretty far down the list of why we lost an 18-point lead.

Book forcing things has never been a great offensive strategy.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

these are tge types of games we need to be in - book needs to snap out of it and stop the mental block bs

 

[nashman]

True they don’t give up even in games where they were down huge and fought back. No matter the results this team is 1000% more fun to watch than last years squad. And I’ll add they rarely look lost and seem to have an actual coached scheme!

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

wake up man

 

[dscher]

he's 29 and rarely injured - one of the best players in the league - we're not getting luka

He's 29 with miles of a 34 year old. Make no mistake. Without the pure athletic ability that can get him more years.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

minnesota playing full court defenses to take advantage of our tiltedness

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

he didn't touch it

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

lol he touched it

 

[Dback Jon]

Total screw job

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

fouling goody all the way down the court

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

damn dunn

 

[Dback Jon]

That needs to be a flagrant 2 ejection

 

[Mainstreet]

Dunn is getting up.

 

[GatorAZ]

Richards is so bad lmao
