Allen is smart. Would have been awesome had he hit that shot.

Finally a good game. I can't believe KD has 15 ast to only 2 turnovers.

The hot shooting from 3 has been huge for us too. Gordon and Allen 7/11 from 3. All the starters shooting 50% or better overall too, with Allen and Gordon at 83% and 73%.

Things look a whole lot better with some effort and 3 pointers falling. Still confused on how the entire team went cold for like 5 games straight.

They have almost 20 turnovers collectively though. Luckily shots are falling.

It's not sustainable. They NEED a pg.

At least we're dialing in from distance. The past few games we were unable to find the bucket.

Finally an actual good game from the team. Looks like point-KD might be better than point-Book. At least for tonight.

Love Azubuike. Hopefully he has permanently replaced Eubanks in the rotation.

Book's passing is so bad.

How do you hit the rim when throwing a lob to a man all alone under the basket?

Rockets look very lethargic for being a young team.

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

Wins and stats may not show it but his passing has been really good this season. His shot selections this year have been bad. A lot of second guessing from him

I've seen enough already lol. It's an uneasy offense to watch without a true dimes man on the court.

Should have been a simple bounce pass to Little instead of a lob.

It's the little fundamentals like that where he sometimes does stupid stuff that prevents him from being elite.
