What the hell is with the sloppy play all the sudden? Is the betting line too far apart? Someone close to missing an in-game parlay? THIS ISN'T OVER. CLOSE OUT STRONG, FFS!

Suns had a 15 point lead and began milking clock at 4 minutes left. Missed FTs, turnover after turnover, dribbling down the clock then chucking, no defense whatsoever as if this was a fouling situation for Milwaukee already. When will we ever learn?

Huh?

On Tuesday

Why is this a long review he is in the restricted area and bumps his lower body affecting Beals ability to land.

10 missed free throws from the big 3

Frustrating game.All these dang stoppages in play.I'm just ready for it to be over.The Suns sure know how to keep you in suspense.

Yeah, coaching staff needs to get them to actually run the f-ing offense. It's annoying

Since we took a commanding lead here is what we have done:

No pass offensive possession leading to a contested 3 by Book
Don't get back on transition D leading to a Crowder layup
Terrible / lazy pass by KD turnover leading to a Giannis dunk
Another low pass one on one possession with a miss
Nurkic bad pass turnover
Beal missed 2 FTs
No attacks on Giannis who had 5 fouls

Would've been nice to be able to sit our guys and go to the bench to finish this out. We had enough of a lead where this worked out but we were a couple makes by them away from blowing this. We need to start cutting down on these types of issues. It's long overdue.

Big 3: 13-7
Book/KD: 9-6
Book/Beal: 3-1
Beal/KD: 1-2
KD: 2-4
Book: 2-1
Beal: 0-0

Total: 30-21

35-33 the good guys win the 4th Q.

Those missed FTs by Big 3 are odd, but beating Bucks with balanced scoring and three players with 10 rebounds is great. The bench players rebounded well too. As for the FTs at least Giannis hit his usual % and not 99% like in the finals.

I may be petty but I can not stand Crowder. I feel he stole money from us and cost us the addition of a valuable player. It sure looks like he is talking a bunch of crap out there to Booker. I wonder what Booker think of him?

Up 10 = start milking with 4min left
Up 15 = start milking with 8min left
Up 20 = milk the entire 4th quarter

Plus went 8-28 from 3. You lose most nights shooting like that from deep.

Sign me up for 15-20 minutes of Bol rebounding, being hilariously long, and making good decisions. That would be very helpful moving forward.

I'll take the dub but it wasn't pretty at all. Good to see Beal bounce back from a rough 1st half.

Book went 0/2 in the 4th quarter. Weird but he's been invisible in the 4th's lately.

Agree. That Guard/Guard/KD/Bol/Big lineup has some potential, especially on defense.

If we trade for a big wing, they better not take any Bol Bol minutes

So right now 4 teams with pretty much same record fighting for 1st seed. A group of 4 teams with similar records in 5-8 range and another 4 teams with realistic chance to make the playoffs as 7/8 seeds. WC being super competitive as usual. Next 10 of 11 games are against those teams. Hopefully we can upgrade before the trade deadline and climb the standings despite the rough schedule ahead.
