I’m going to say it again: Eric Gordon is a liability in the 4th quarter.

Good to see Booker make the shot.

The blown leads are a combination of bad defense and stupid turnovers. Mix in the lack of a dedicated ball handler which leads to those offensive turnovers.

Book and Ayton jawing at each other
Nurk clearly licking the slice of pizza known as the Phoenix Suns - thus claiming it

Portland imploding in the last few, safe to say we got this one locked up.

Not the best player on the floor but my player of the game is Nurk tonight.

Just keep shooting it EG, just don’t do any playmaking in the 4th.

Responded big time after that first half while Ayton just vanished in the second

Doesn’t help the Suns that Clarkson and Markkenan are no shows against the lakers geesh… Clarkson freaking plays is like he’s Curry then just no shows against others… I’ll stand by what I said the inseason deal here is just a distraction won’t be to upset we get out of the mix so we can just play ball and work on coming together as a team for the ultimate goal!

This was a strange game.
My main takeaway is that Portland is really really bad. Sheldon Sharpe would not be a fun player to have on your team.

Quietest 59 points of the season for KD and Book.

Ok whatever don’t believe the doctor.
Does every Suns game have that annoying music on offense and the defense music?
Do other teams do this?
It made the have almost unwatchable for me and I'd hate to be at the game.
Holy hell.

Nurk outplayed Ayton plus we got Grayson

Really should have won by a bigger margin.

So after a hot start, Ayton slowed down and he and Nurk finished with the same amount of points and Nurk had 4 more rebounds and 4 blocks.
I really like what Nurkic can do as a passer while guys cut. He’s looking to make the right play and we’ll need that as team’s force him to be a decision maker at times.

Another funky stat - might be the first time Nurk had zero assists - he definitely wasn't on distribution duties tonight
