There's bad losses every season but that was just straight up inexcusable.  I don't understand how we play down to these fringe level NBA players.  It happened against the Knicks garbage bench and it happened tonight against the Suns bench.

Has anyone noticed Tatum is getting worse at shooting 3’s instead of better? His bad shooting nights are really bad.

He only made 3 shots the whole game.

Awful, awful, awful loss. No heart at all tonight.

Almost guaranteed they won't be held accountable either.

That's partly on the rookie coach who is too interested in what flavor gum to chew during the game.

Starting jacking up 3s from the beginning and never stopped tonight. Just stupid shot selection. Lazy

After the recent string of losses JB was heard saying he's got to be better. Well he was but he didn't tell the rest of the team.

Actually, he has been worse every year shooting 3s, if we are talking about shooting percaentage. If fact, he is among the worse 3 pt shooter in the team.

Been a common theme with this team for years.

JB is shooting 33% from three for the year, yet he feels empowered to shoot 3-12 threes tonight, mostly on iso pull up jumpers.

That's a lack of offensive discipline and accountability. That plagued Brad in his final year or so as coach. Joe is making it even worse with his extreme three point philosophy.

We're not winning anything when that's the offense we're throwing out there - i.e. an offense where you have to make low percentage and contested iso threes in order to win.

Both JT and JB need to be more selective in their 3s.  Both of them jacking up a lot of bad ones in this game.
Which I don't understand, when Ayton is out, the Suns are not an overpowering def team, the lane is there.

Yeah I didn’t know it was that bad. He’s streaky more than I initially assumed.
