Phoenix is shooting 54%.  Unacceptable.

To be fair, a lot of these shots that they're hitting are tough and really well defended. For example, most of Booker's shots are just him being that good and hitting them over the outstretched arm.

Nice ATO play by Brad to get Tatum involved.  Makes a nice pullup after getting in rhythm after making 2 FTs.

Booker just makes it look so easy leaving Tommy and gorman almost speechless.

Booker is a hell of a player. If Chriss and Jackson turn into anything, the Suns are gonna be making noise in the West

Their D has been ok, not great.  They have the inside presence with Monroe and TC to make up for D breakdowns.

They're still terrible defensively as a team though.  I wouldn't worry about the Suns until they address this first.

True.  We've given up a few lobs to Chandler though, and there's been some breakdowns leading to wide open shots that I'm not happy about

Don't forget Bender.  Made a couple early corner 3's.  If he can become a 2 way player, Suns re-build could turn things around pretty quickly.

Crap. You're right. Bender too... Jesus the Suns are the Celtics of the West, just 2 years behind us and with more high pedigree young players.

Nah I live in Phoenix. Bender stinks, they all want to trade him. Jackosn and Chriss look averagr at best..

Booker is insane and a superstar in the making.

But boy Brad Stevens may rip into this team if they let him score 50+ again  :laugh:
