The Big 2 😒
If they made the 9 free throws that they missed
Missed free throws and rebounds. They make 3 more freethrows and one more 3 we win
Rebounding, rebounding, rebounding
No defense or hustle. They could have easily won this one. Where was Okogi?
good news is we know kd book and dunn all work together well. if we could get jimmy and a new center i would truly believe in this team
We lost because of atrocious defense and no rebounding, not offense
Dudes need to box out and be in position. Ridiculous to be looking like we have zero fundamentals when it comes to crashing the glass.
GET A EFFIN REBOUNDER IT IS SICKENING OUTREBOUNDED BY 16 OMFG THIS RETARDED FRONT OFFICE
Imagine blaming Beal as the biggest factor AND NOT THE REBOUNDING. Brendon, do you even watch basketball?
Just face it…Suns is a terrible team. Many good players, but still not defense, no rebound, no bench. Getting Jimmy Butler probably going change much, and just going to extend many more bad seasons to come.
It’s not even a fun troll anymore, sick of saying it… get rid of Beal.
We need a Center with production and Rebounding 👏🏀 9:08
Offensive rebounds and second chance points once they control that with the right players they will still struggle
Trae went 13 for 31. that is not going off, that is chucking. I see know why people think Kobe was always "going off"
Almost every major problem we have is a direct result of us trading away ayton for the good for nothing nurkic. This team scores no easy points. Ayton scored a lot of easy, high-percentage points for us that no longer exist. In the last game, we saw how easy it was for Oso to score in the post as a release valve when teams doubled KD or Book. Ayton was ten times better than Oso in that regard. We don’t have that anymore. Those 16 high-percentage, easy points were a huge cushion to withstand any mistakes made. And don’t forget, Ayton was a competent defender, both in the post and on the perimeter, as well as a strong rebounder who would have prevented us from getting abused on the offensive glass night in night out.
The rebounding was horrendous bro, rebounding and defense is the worst I’ve ever fucking seen they have no hustle on defense or grabbing boards and that’ll make us lose more than half the time, yeah plus Brad is ass
It’s probably honestly a mindset thing of them being “I don’t wanna get tired playing defense so I can be 100 on offense” but fuck man it doesn’t work their is literally no hustle on defense they just watch them drive by them and they can’t rotate to save their fucking life it’s awful
