I don't like writing off losses. Maybe if it were just one game but the Suns haven't played well for awhile. I'm beginning to worry some of Jalen Green is wearing off on Devin Booker.
Nah. This is likely on the training staff.

Royce starts the game off with a 3-pointer.

Defense has been a problem for Phoenix, especially inside.

Maybe Mat Ishbia should be more concerned adding a 4/5 than prognostications on wins and losses?

Play the rookies. At least give them some experience.

I get not playing Booker back to back while he’s recovering. But no Jalen? Are they going to keep him bubble wrapped forever?

Just keep shooting threes. That's the answer.... not.

Think the Suns are afraid to get a 4 because a big forward may shoot at the rim too much and he may gather in too many rebounds and that would cause a take away of all those hiked up 3's that the all the Suns deem so necessary & are in love with.

They need to drive to the basket and get the calls to go to the line. Williams and 6'3" guard Goodwin are the only rebounders. A big forward is badly needed.

The Suns can't shoot from outside and can't drive inside. Teams are pounding away at their weakness.

Playing defense was the thing they did most consistently and now that has evaporated.

We are letting them shoot 68% with 2 minutes left in the half.

Shame on the suns for putting out this product tonight.
