Horrible rotations tonight by Monty. Nader and Craig? Just horrible stuff all around.

Yikes. Good thing we got game 4. We look just absolutely gassed after that one. Hopefully we recharge the batteries sooner than later.

Booker can't play point when it matters most. So ugly man. So ugly

Suns appear to be toast… might’ve ridden this ride for as long as it was able to go…
Clippers are taking the Suns into deep water, where most of them have never been. And it shows…

I’m guessing we’ll be back here Friday night. And I am not at all confident about that turns out.

We are playing like it’s our third game in a row. Slow and no energy from no one and I mean no one is stepping up tonight. Yes Booker has 25 points but he makes bad plays at the worst time

We weren’t ready for the moment tonight. Book was the only one ready in the first half but he’s been awful like the rest of the team has all game, since.

And man... our closes to the Quarter tonight have been an abomination.

Not sure how much longer they can let Paul try to work his way through it tonight

Booker getting killed on switch ups early in the game and no changes made. They are playing like they don’t want it.

No urgency. At home. Such an ugly performance.

Well, going back in time, I hope this series doesn't end up like 1981 Suns-Kings. Long time Suns fans will know what I'm talking about.

They just folded so easy tonight when facing adversity.

Every Suns fan should be absolutely worried. This team could easily drop two more on us to take the series.

Just tough cause I dont think the Clippers shooters are going to choke at home again...

Giving up 22 to Morris on the road (thru 3 Qrts) has killed us.

George was due a big game, but you cant let Morris go off like this.

Ayton is not getting any help underneath.

Clippers are rebounding like we were vs the Lakers.


He does need help but this is one of those Ayton games that frustrates you. Repeatedly getting his hands on the ball but not getting it. He keeps trying to tip boards to himself and not getting them. That play where Booker is doubled in the corner he throws it to Ayton, not a great pass but one you have to catch and score on because he has such a mismatch but he couldn't catch it and then couldn't put a fork in it trying to get it off the floor.

You would think without Zubac he'd dominate but it seems the physicality of Morris and Cousins have him a bit intimidated

Clips have all momentum in series. Blowout win - close loss - blowout win.

I will say it again. I don’t get the offensive play sets. None of this plays are for breaking down the zone.
