So, I know we’re all fans of the team and root for them, but does anyone here actually LIKE this Suns team this year?
The team has the potential to be very likable IMO. There are some potential good stories but they are making it very hard.So, I know we’re all fans of the team and root for them, but does anyone here actually LIKE this Suns team this year?
There are going to be a lot of games like this with Vogel coaching.
Well, there have already been lot, but unless the Suns are somehow firing on all cylinders every night... meaning, nobody out of the lineup and everybody shooting lights out... they will routinely be getting outplayed and outcoached.
Unlike many of the contenders, the Suns simply don't have the personnel or competent coaching to overcome anything less than an outstanding team performance on most nights.
I guarantee Bol will be back to being totally ignored by Vogel within the week, if not by the next game even... like his performance tonight never even happened.The Suns find a backup center and he has been sitting on the bench the whole time.
If Bol Bol hasn’t played himself into the regular rotation it’s another indictment of Vogel. Having said that? I am not sure Vogel can use him in a rotation properly regardless.I guarantee Bol will be back to being totally ignored by Vogel within the week, if not by the next game even... like his performance tonight never even happened.
And that's solely because everyone will ask Vogel in the presser why Bol hasn't been playing more, and that will offend Vogel's ego. So he will use any excuse to bury Bol again as soon as he can possibly justify it.

For offense we supposedly have genious AC in KY. If Vogel can find sufficiently good def. schemes to hide Nurk, Allen and Bol's weakness when facing the best teams, if he can find off. schemes to hide JO and RO's weakness, we contend for title.I think we know why LeBron was over Vogel even after the chip - he's predictable - doesn't play the hot hand and honestly hasn't brought any defense - I'm starting to think he was just blessed with defensive talent
On paper I LIKE this team. We have some very good players. Allen is the top three point shooter right now. Book and KD are two of the top NBA players period. A listing of players rankings have Book at number eleven and KD in the top 5 I believe. Gordon is a top off the bench guy. Bol Bol keeps amazing me. Nurkic is decent. Royce adds to our depth nicely. Beal is really good when on the court.So, I know we’re all fans of the team and root for them, but does anyone here actually LIKE this Suns team this year?
I have ZERO confidence in KY's offense. That's where I think we really don't utilize our talent. We went for scorers on this squad, and we should be scoring over 120 every night in my opinion.For offense we supposedly have genious AC in KY.

Bol Bol brought the bench points tonight.Taking a step back, I will say that losing Nurk and Beal both in this game is a massive loss. However, you still had Book and KD. If just one of those guys isn't having a great game it just goes to show this bench still has ZERO margin of error.
Right and if he didn't, this would be a Rocket blowout.Bol Bol brought the bench points tonight.
This sounds like deja vu.I guarantee Bol will be back to being totally ignored by Vogel within the week, if not by the next game even... like his performance tonight never even happened.

Lol. I was just thinking tonight that for a team full of guys I like individually I sure find this team impossible to like.So, I know we’re all fans of the team and root for them, but does anyone here actually LIKE this Suns team this year?
Beginning of the year.. yes..So, I know we’re all fans of the team and root for them, but does anyone here actually LIKE this Suns team this year?
At this rate, we’ll be lucky to make the play-in. Didn’t bother watching the last 2 games. The effort has been piss poor all season. If the players don’t care why should we as fans? Lol. This team is going nowhere as presently constructed. Vogel sure as heck ain’t the answer.Beginning of the year.. yes..
At this moment.. no..
I know most will disagree with that I am going to say. I am not trying to argue but it's what I feel in my heart. I do hope I am wrong when I say this and the ones that don't agree with me are right.
I see this team getting bounce in the first round. I honestly feel this team should be blown up at the end of the year and we try to get back what we can. If we bring everyone back I feel like we will be in the same boat again. It just not working and I don't think it's a chemistry thing.
I think our WCF championship team a couple of years ago would beat our current roster. I was on board with all the moves that were made to get KD and Beal but I feel like it is not working and will admit I was on that train. At this moment all the moves we made was a mistake and we have to deal with it. I know Beal and Nurk were out but if we can't beat the Rockets without them then maybe we aren’t as good as we thought. If we have one star go down and we turn into a train wreck then we aren’t good.
I do hope I am wrong. I will always root for this team no matter what. I get frustrated at times but my enjoyment is coming on the boards to celebrate the small wins with you guys.
Not really.So, I know we’re all fans of the team and root for them, but does anyone here actually LIKE this Suns team this year?
