Book hasn't been himself in quite some time.

Maybe fatigue kicking in?

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

These Game threads are sparse.
I know it has been disappointing around here but let's keep our chins up. Go Suns!!

How come you lost your trust in Booker?


No real reason, just seeing what offers are out there.

Oh I see. After tonight’s performance he’s off my Dynasty League too and I don’t even play in one.

If someone told me KD will miss the game, Book will shoot so poorly, I'd have thought Suns will get dominayted.

This was a fun and easy game to watch, Bol Bol getting minutes early was a nice surprise.

Beal is looking in amazing shape, 21 points playing smooth basketball.

Book had a terrible shooting night. He had nice looks but didn't go in.

Nurkic and Allen (and Little) for Ayton looking more and more like the best trade of the century lol.

4 wins in a row and counting...YES!

Another thing ... It is huge to win a game on a back-to-back resting KD.

He was playing around 40 mpg in the last 4 games, it was a good decision to rest him for this one.
