A Kevin Durant update. Nothing appeared out of the ordinary, but we will find out more later.

Thing about KD is - when his shot isn't falling he can eat at the line but honestly he didn't drive as much last night and when he did the refs weren't calling jack

And another thing - on defense he feeds on the vibe - when the team is playing hard you'll get the best KD - don't get me wrong KD wants to play that way all game long but I think it's frustrating when other's make mistakes or don't make the effort

I don't think he's hurt - I think he was disappointed

This better be the start of a 4 game winning streak.
After that it gets ugly fast.

Yup. This is the last soft-ish part of the schedule.

Yeah, realistically, if Suns don't figure out defense and ball control, they may wind up in the play-in part of the post season. They had a fairly cake schedule thus far and didn't really take full advantage. Granted, injuries happened. But still. Sad really. Big 3 is rare, and when it happens, it is not all roses.

 

[Proximo]

Yup. This is the last soft-ish part of the schedule.

Considering our record against winning teams, I really think a playin game is in our future.

it definitely could be. I mean, we dropped from 5th to 7th last night in the blink of an eye because of how bunched up the entire west is. And none of those play-in games would be cake, either.

Reality is we're kind of a castle made of sand.

Frank Vogel needs to turn the "if" to win.
