Why isn’t Holiday getting any burn in these small guard lineups? He played really well last time against OKC.

It's a good question. Holiday has played well.
How the hell was that a foul on Paul?

Suns defense is simply not there.

I can’t fathom why Payton would get minutes over Holiday except to speculate that it’s an audition. We know that we’ll have Holiday in the playoffs, but if Payton isn’t worth the roster spot, certainly Ish or Iffe might be.

Holiday should be ahead of Payton. I'm not sure about Monty's thinking.

Teams have figured out shooting threes and exerting more energy is the way to beat the Suns.

Cam Johnson is 1-8 from the field and 0-6 from three.

He’s still got to keep shooting it. He’s gotta get his rhythm back.

Suns not getting much from their bench. Craig has 8 of the 15 points.

Center used to look like the Suns strongest position. It doesn't feel that way anymore.

Doesn’t make sense to ever have Payton on the floor. And it’s been so long since we’ve played Holiday, that it doesn’t make sense to me it’s just throwing Payton a bone. Holiday could use one too. Maybe we see that next game.

Suns content to shoot threes is a recipe for a loss.

As usual, Monty waits too long.

Looks like we’re just going through the motions.
