Roy, Gilbert and Houston were better than good… especially Houston. And yet, Book is significantly above and beyond all three!

Booker getting compared to Brandon Roy, Gilbert Arenas and Allan Houston smh

I’m giving credit to the Clippers tonight-Shaq

I don’t understand the Roy slander. He had bad knees from the jump and would’ve been better today with his scoring arsenal.

Yea, Roy was a stud, but I think the comparison is backwards. I think Roy would of become who Booker is now if he could of stayed healthy.

The mute button is mighty handy. I can only take so much of these guys.

Mikal Bridges praised Jae Crowder for doing the little things that don't show up on a stat sheet and teaching him how to be physical on defense.

Crowder hasn't been the same since he took that fall and sprained his left wrist (the same game Payne sprained his right wrist). I know we were shorthanded at the time so he felt he had to return early without letting it heal but I'd rather us lose a few extra games than not have him 100% come playoff time. I hope he takes the break and whatever time afterwards to heal up before returning.

a few thoughts. Booker shouldn't be compared to anyone, unless there is a true comparison. he does everything well, left hand, right hand, running the floor, mid range deep 3's and now consistent good Defense. and even learning the importance of Rebounding, and assist numbers also good.
and the suns don't get the respect they deserve because if your not a suns fan, they are boring. they don't have the exiting finishes, because they buckle down and always take care of business in the last 5 min. they leave no doubt about the outcome. and that becomes uninteresting to non Suns fans. I'm convinced that if we beat the warriors in 5 games it will be because clay and Steph just didn't have a good series. we are literally the 5th team listed as a favorite to win the title despite having a 6 game lead on the next closes competitor in the entire league. oh well thank god we are all suns fans and appreciate what we have!

it's h

is mental focus, you can read his face on weather or not he's focused
I think Book focuses but like many young players, he wants to win and shoot the team to victory and forces bad shots/turnovers sometimes that he doesn’t have to. When he plays within himself, he’s the best 2 guard in the league. But I don’t see him not focused just because he’s missing shots or turning the ball over. That’s ball sometimes.
