Phoenix Suns Searching For Answers After Abysmal Loss To Clippers
The Phoenix Suns might have hit rock bottom going down 37 in the first half to the Los Angeles Clippers in a home loss on Tuesday night.
Brendon Kleen of @justbasketballfans explains why there is no easy answer for these Suns duds, how Frank Vogel, Devin Booker and Kevin Durant responded postgame, and why the center spot is officially an emergency in Phoenix.

no one's watching this?
🎉🤣🤣🤣🤣
pretty simple explanation to why it looked so bad. missed all their shots in the first half and the clippers hit most of their shots in the first half. not rocket science.
It's unpleasant to say the least,they played with no sense of urgency,no leadership whatsoever…. shameful team!!
This team completely lacks physicality and athleticism. The only player that brings physicality is Nurkic and he’s incredibly unathletic. On any given night the opposing team will have 2 to 3 guys that are more athletic than the entire suns roster. This is why the Miles Bridges trade would’ve been huge for the suns.
Suns fans r tired, Can only string along so much hype from the finals run a couple years ago
I told you 😂😢
Our ultimate hope is ability to raise level of play in PO, like Heat and Lakers did last postseason.
The Suns had a 10 point first quarter. That’s ridiculous. With a team that has KD, Devin Booker AND Bradley Beal and they only score 10 points in the first quarter? Suns just dug themselves a little deeper with this loss.
Phoenix Buns….Y'all tried to scapegoat cp3 but didn't learn your lesson from the Rockets…Btw cp3 let the warriors in +- yet again with +21…This has been going on all year he's been holding his own and even carrying that franchise for most o the season
As I've said countless times here. James Jones continually builds mentally weak rosters. You need to get a sports psychologist on your show instead of looking at stats about this stuff. I'm being serious, not making fun of your show BK.
Vogel starting Allen is a major issue on D. Obviously that small 3 guard lineup doesn't work, especially with Allen who's too small, too slow & can't guard. The Suns can't establish any consistent D, with Grayson Allen at the 3. Defense carries & will keep you in a gm.
I think they just dont want the 6th spot. Most likely OKC will end up 3rd and they just want to avoid them. If they get out of play in they will face Wolves, who they can think are beatable (lol) or Denver, who are not beatable but its Denver so people can't be mad if you lose to champions… right? Shameful, weak and spineless.
Embarrassed at home without leonard and harden….33 at half..this team is a hot mess. And is a huge letdown UNACCEPTABLE
No identity and when Devin Booker try be a point guard fail everytime uncharacteristic turnovers
this team can’t rock wit the clippers. it’s that simple. it is a terrible matchup for the suns.
This team was 10x better before ishbia HAD to have KD
Hilarious. They won’t make playoffs
I can feel you guyz. Without defence there is no 💍 Warriors won 4 💍 not just because of offence it’s because of High IQ & amazing defence.
Unfortunately KD & Booker doesn’t believe that.
Next season get Moses Moody, Seddiq Bey, Nic Claxton players like that
My question is why all the players were missing shots? All their shots were undershot especially Books I imagined book must’ve felt embarrassed 😅 and in contrast with the opponents making shots even some contested ones? Wow confidence really works
I'm sorry but "chillin. We get another chance tomorrow", or whatever Book said is a reprehensible thing for the leader of the team to say in public. Well done Devin. You're relaxed being made to look weak and soft. Congrats.
team has no defensive identity
