Paul isn't playing tired. He has 10 points and 2 rebounds.

Nice play by DA to get that board and immediately fire down court to Book for the layup.

I don’t know about that offensive foul, but even without it, Book dribbled it off his foot.

jesus... and now we get a T?

gonna take a major turnaround in the second half to win this... on tired legs.

man. That’s the worst half of basketball I’ve watched from this team for a while (prob because I didn’t watch the Spurs game).

That had to be one of our top 3 worst halves of the year. I see no way we are winning this game.

Cam Johnson is scoreless starting today.

Suns bench has only produced 8 points.

Can we watch Suns first half highlights and pretend it's live action?

It’s games like these where Ayton’s lack of attack mentality comes to light. In a game where there’s tired legs you should attack with higher percentage shots and free throws. Where do those come from? Typically post play. And this isn’t a Celtics team with large bigs. But Ayton just doesn’t have the dog offensively.

Ayton has 3 personal fouls. His staying out of foul trouble is key to any chance of a comeback.

Looks to me that the last 3 games teams have figured out how to defend Booker.

Tonight I think it's more the rest of the team, other than Paul, not being able to hit the broadside of a barn.
