Gordon had a good game but his decision making and basketball IQ is very questionable for a vet.

8-1 with Booker on the court so far this season is pretty impressive.

I can. Suns don't want any more bogus stuff to come down to the refs. Against the Spurs... no call when KD got whacked. Against the Jazz, the refs called a foul on a Lauri three that was only changed because the Suns challenged it. Makes sense to me.

No Beal
No Allen
NO KD

This team is deep for real. So many weapons and a true Superstar in Book.

Oh, for sure. He's not the same player he was even three years ago, but he's enough on moist nights. His decision making has shown to be pretty poor on loads of occasions and it makes you wonder what it is he's thinking. I'm glad he's a complementary player and isn't being relied on to be a primary ballhandler.

I said Booker should be in the MPV conversation, but folks said he isn't in the same status as Giannis, Embiid, and Jokic. :dontknow:

This is one where our insane guard depth won us the game.

No Beal and no Allen, yet in steps Gordon and Goodwin and they were 2 of our best players tonight

What truly sealed it for us was our rebounding and three point shooting. It was nice to see them be aggressive on the glass and contesting shots.

Devin Booker is a stud. KD might still win the argument for being the better player, but Booker is the engine that runs our offense, especially with our lack of traditional point guard. Glad we'll have him around for a long time.

The luxury of having Gordon is what makes this team so great offensively even missing 3 of our best players.

25 points on 13 shots.

And Goodwin has been fantastic in the last two games. Amazing rebounder and nice two-way player, his contract is an steal.

Booker's presence out there unlocks the role players, since he's been back the turnover issues have subsided greatly as is shown by our record.

by my standards best win of the season, because the role guys stepped up dig time.
Metu
Little and esp Goodwin

Does Brunson want to actually shoot that shot or draw the foul and get to the line for 3?

That's why he didn't jump.

So has Booker cemented his role as the 3rd best player on this team behind Durant and Beal?

I wasn't insinuating to be in his face on the attempt; rather, just someone run at him and jump to obscure his sight on the basket. That's it. Just make it a little harder than it was.
