[Mainstreet]

Suns playing too small ball.

 

[Dback Jon]

This is sad.

Very

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

Lol this team

 

[Cheesebeef]

Fourth quarter woes as usual.

 

[Mainstreet]

Huge rebound by Allen.

 

[Dback Jon]

Houston bailing out the suns

Look up the definition of “Pretenders” and you’ll see a Phoenix Suns logo.

[BirdGangThing]

Looking at the highlights and O'Neale kept identifying the mis matches and getting them the ball

 

[Vacard]

Nurklear Weapon- 8 out of 16 free throws made. Sad.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Ok.

It’s not like I’m happy about it, but I just don’t think this squad has the talent, medical make-up or fourth quarter fortitude to duke it out with the best teams in the league.

 

[Covert Rain]

Sloppy game. However, I am going to say that considering again we were without Beal and Gordon and won might be helping out round out the rotation. Other guys are getting opportunities. This might help in the long run. Vogel's offensive scheme still sucks late in games.

Ehh don’t think so, off shooting games from many happens. Every time they lose a game or don’t blow someone away the naysayers come out. Looked awful good Sunday shorthanded and still smoked the Lakers. We will know with the upcoming schedule how we stack up it would be nice though to have Beal back to help out!

He’s got the highest ball IQ on this team. Though that’s not saying much with this squad.

Gotta hope KD finds early season KD again. This version is as mid as they come.

Well, yeah… that’s happened a lot this season so that’s why the “naysayers” keep coming out. Also, those “naysayers” are here for the victories too.

Looked awful good Sunday shorthanded and still smoked the Lakers.

Dude… the Lakers aren’t good. Looking awfully good agaibst awfully mediocre teams isn’t quite the flex you seem to think it is, especially when around the Laker game, we’ve gotten our asses kicked by the Mavs, lost to a bad Rockets team and struggled to put away that same bad Rockets team.

We will know with the upcoming schedule how we stack up it would be nice though to have Beal back to help out!

I mean… we’ve seen 59 games. That’s a pretty good sample size to know how we stack up, IMO.[/QUOTE]

All I can say is I’m glad we didn’t end up with FVV.

 

[Chaplin]

That’s certainly fair.

This slump shouldn’t last that much longer. Next game would be a great time to break out of it.

After 59 games I'm thinking the same thoughts,,,, the fourth quarter scoring droughts with double-digit leads, turnovers, and missed free throws is very concerning.
More off-days practices should be spending hours on increasing FT %'s
