Chemistry is the name of the game
Stop changing the lineup Vogel!
I definitely disagree we gave up way too many 3s. It’s not like cam going 5/5 was because we didn’t do that. Only one of them was an offensive rebound. We’re not a bad on ball defense team but we don’t rotate correctly or help often enough and there’s way too many boneheaded miscues on leaving wide open 3 balls
Why when the suns lose yall out KD pics up here as the thumbnail all the time hahaha this is insane.
I'm starting to get worried about this team, even with beal back our defense is not gonna all of sudden get remarkably better. And our offense gets too stagnant and 1-1. Not to mention the continued offensive rebounding problem and bad turnovers
I don’t understand Metu not playing more today considering he played well as a starter in the 1st half. Vogel seems to not know what to do at times with guys like Metu who need to be in the lineup consistently for the Suns to really compete with the best.
They gotta run more pin downs for Beal that’s where he’s most effective. He was efficient but gotta get him more involved
Brooklyn
What's with KD hate from the Suns fans. He is on your team if you didn't know. Anytime anything bad happens KD face is exclusively on the thumbnail smh
The suns have no wing depth. Okogie and Little are the suns best wing type defenders but there both undersized
KEVIN YOUNG NEED TO GET FIRED
Im telling yall. Yall not winning the big games with Book playing PG, its not happening. I said that before his 15 assist game and I'm still saying it. To really take this offense to another level…Vogel needs have all of the big 3 play OFF BALL at times and have someone wlse bring the ball up.
Beal needs to come off the bench. Surround great defense around Booker and Durant. Then let Beal come in with the second unit and cook. Our biggest strength should be having the best bench minutes
OUCH! It hurt a little bit getting beat the other half of the trade. Bridges and Johnson had a chip on their shoulders.
Nets fan here. Thank you for your powerful and heart felt words about the twins- they are special guys. Last night’s welcome at the arena and your words has me feeling super grateful.
This Suns team needs time to heal and gel. However, they need a lot of help defensively. That could be their downfall.
Kd on tbumbnails soon as the team loose lol kd needs to say fuck it and get selfish and just take over and stop being passive
No Okogie, no Grayson, no Gordon… I am not worried. Chemistry will be there when we are completely healthy.
I said this the day of the worst trade in Suns history which destroyed our present and future. Ishbia destroyed our culture for years to come. He should stick to mortgages!!!
Nets got a better record than the suns and beat them straight up point blank 🤷🏻♂️🤣
