Nader was a positive last season. Payton, you’re right.
yeah, he was decent last year, he has been abysmal this year. If it was a 5 games I would write it off as a slow start but he has been terrible in every game he has played this year.

He was building a house with his bricks.

Maybe in his time off he will have rediscovered his shooting stroke.

McGee and Stix are going to have to fill-in for Ayton while he is in health and safety protocols.

Teams are starting to reach-in from behind to knock the ball away. Suns need to be more aware of it.

Yeah he’s not the defensive presence lately. Wonder if the fouling out has him now overly cautious.

The Suns may have to bring in Stix or go small to stop the penetration in the lane.

Booker starting off hot. Bridges nice corner 3. Much better ball movement, but have to be better defensively. Thunder are getting whatever they want.
