lmao it’s game three of a rebuild season, y’all need to relax 😂
The team makes to many bad decisions with the ball and is always settling for the long range shot
There's nobody holding anyone accountable there's nobody
leading by example
no true leader on the team
I think Nick Lopez they need to drive them to the Phoenix Suns the name score they need something good on Mexican give me a Mexican to the Phoenix Suns
The offense looked like last year… Booker dribbled the air out ball, then turned it over at the end of shot clock.
Sundo has way more of a level head here, I understand your concerns, but we've played 3 games man! 3 games, it takes time to flush that crap from last year. Effort is not the issue here. Now we here in like 3-4 months from now, ok we'll talk, but man, just breathe my man…. This is part of the pain when you reset/reload with a new coach and new pieces
I never realized Dillon Brooks was our primary scorer n shooter…not Booker. Good to know
Game 3 and season is over….again…great
they also botching a lot of their switches as well = easily coachable, team needs more chemistry and time played together
I really think we could've beaten the Clippers is the funniest thing ever
We goin b ard fellas long season we got wait till everybody back an healthy don’t crash out yet suns fans 🤣🤣🤣🤣
There has been a lid on the basket, for the suns.
& thats not good when the other team cant miss
Yeah D sucks and they need to get Booker in a better position to score buckets.
Hate to say it boys, but this team having similar traits of the last 2 disastrous years points to one thing, the only common factor, Booker
Giving up 70+ plus points in all 3 games at halftime = no Bueno this year.. serious things need to change on D. Also stop playing Royce and Allen at the same time. Start Colin G at PG. Enough of Point Book. He's never and never will be a good ball handler.
don't confuse results with effort. It's too early to expect us to have the results we want. The coaching staff is learning too. I see effort and fight in this team. In every game so far, they 've made a run after being down big. Give the team some time. This is a brutal schedule for any team to start the season. B2B games against 2 contenders on their home court looking for their 1st win of the season?
I'm not happy with Dunn and Oso lack of minutes. Gotta run the hell out of the minutes.. Also their early on/off is great
Gabe DEN only hit 9 threes & shot 29%. The issue wasn’t “giving up open shots” for that game. It was the 19 TOs like Sundo said, bad transition defense & a literal lay-up line most of the game. A lot of bad rotations & being out of position.
The defense needs to improve & I believe it will. Defenses just don’t become great overnight. 2/3rd of this team is new & we’ve played 3 teams who are all historically really good offenses. 2 of which are championship contenders 😅
The one player who has made the biggest difference to this team is Cam Payne. Before he joined the Suns were awful. Then they made the finals after he joined. Then be left and they went to crap again lol.
I just watched Austin Reeves post 51 and DA actually have a great game but just not a lot there past their big two and not much better of a total team than the Suns if at all.
clips actually look better than the nuggs this year. defense could take time. there were a few possessions that were stellar this season. i need two weeks to properly evaluate but lots of concerns but also positives. lots of moving parts that need to settle in to a groove
The Suns are a max 35 win team. Take Booker away and what do you have? The point is, they are a super young team and are not ready to win
The Nugget's and Sun's game was embarrassing. 🙈
The Sun's were not taken seriously, and there is absolutely no chemistry with the Sun's. Yeah, I get that it's still very early, but when it comes to rebuilding a Sun's team and they start looking like a champion contender, well… the Sun's management does a fantastic job on always messing that up.
The Sun's need a PG.
Someone who can control the tempo, sharing the ball movement, assisting the ball to create scoring opportunities, forcing the off-balance of the defenders, just simply a playmaker.
As long as Booker is handling the ball for more than 5 seconds we won't see his full potential. Booker is deadly at scoring when taking immediate action toward the basket after receiving the pass.
The young players would benefit most from a PG.
Overall the Suns chemistry would greatly grow, and it would counteract the Suns having to deal with being overwhelmed. The Sun's turnovers, offense consistently finding their situations being disrupted then immediacy erupted in chaos.
Always keep your head up, and play as if it's always a playoff game.
Regardless, let's get some wins, SUN'S!
The Suns are not losing on defense they losing on shot %
Last year we started off hot and didn’t make the playoffs. We lost two games to teams that are championship contenders. It’s three games in and we are crying for a team that we don’t expect to do much. This fan base is just full of cry babies.
I was at this game, it was rough 😒
