Christian Wood may not be back as he went down wrong.

that stat may be true. But with the quarter ending he has not done well, over dribbling. Making the wrong read and a bad pass for a turnover.

Would you be shocked to learn that he is averaging 0.1 more turnovers than last year

The criticism right now is over the top

 

[Chris_Sanders]

AND lower than 2 years ago.

 

[95pro]

It’s good to see Gordon playing well a few years in a row. He was almost out “cornerstone” a few years back.

that may also be true but how he’s committing them is just a head scratcher.

we can quote a lot of stats but without context stats can be misleading.

edit: ALSO what’s his assist to turnover ratio? Good or bad?

 

[Chris_Sanders]

that may also be true but how he’s committing them is just a head scratcher

I am sure that averaging a 1-1 assist to turnover, they have always been head scratching.

There is just this narrative that something has changed

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

He is +12 on 5-7 shooting. Lets slow this roll

Siiiiiix turnovers

 

[AzStevenCal]

that stat may be true. But with the quarter ending he has not done well, over dribbling. Making the wrong read and a bad pass for a turnover. And with the half ending would be wise so he doesn’t pick up a dumb foul.

Right now you're critical and focusing on him so all you're ever going to see is the bad things. He finished the half plus 17, it hasn't been all bad.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Bridges is always grinning

 

[Mainstreet]

So Wood is back in the second half.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Siiiiiix turnovers

Yeah that's his normal stuff.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Siiiiiix turnovers

Yeah and some of them were of the incredibly stupid variety. It's frustrating and it hurts us, but it isn't the totality of his game.

 

[Muggz]

OMG

 

[Mainstreet]

Yes! Pull up jumper by Booker.

 

[Mainstreet]

Mikal with the 3.

 

[Mainstreet]

Johnson with slam. That may get him going.

 

[95pro]

Book stayed straight up. Bridges to Johnson

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

That was a nice measured little run to her up 20. Now slam the door.

 

[Muggz]

Suns are not waiting on CP3 they are working around him. AND ITS WORKING

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Booker leads the team at +25 by 5

 

[Chris_Sanders]

The Kardashian Curse is the QAnon of the basketball world

 

[Chaplin]

When the Suns play like this, they look so smooth.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

8 straight shot over Ayton

 

[Mainstreet]

Big 3 by Cam Johnson.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Ayton is improving
