I'm in Jerome tonight for my wife's b-day, staying in the Jerome Grand, and watching Suns basketball. Here's hoping for another win against the Jazz.

as soon as Booker is off the floor no ball movement, need a pg makes such a difference

I missed the first few minutes. 29 points with 5 minutes left in the quarter is crazy though. Nurk with some disappointing turnovers. I hope he figures it out, cause he's better than he's shown most games thus far.

Does Nurkic ever defend with his ARMS UP? I mean... he didn't try to close the distance and he didn't bother to try and make the shot more challenging. Those are fundamentals.

Book with 6 assists in the 1st quarter.

And he's on the bench as he should be if he's gonna start games like that.

This team needs to committ to reinforce not being a bonehead.

Just pissing the lead away, one stupid possession at a time. Can't believe Booker tried to poke one in on Markkanen. Ballsy for sure... but ill advised. And typical Okogie with a poor take when a pass was available.

I still don't really see consistent organized offensive sets.

Thought Gordon had 2 threes or did I imagine it?

He's definitely hit two. Are they not crediting him accordingly? The box shows 2-2.

Only 1 of 1 from 3. Given how far he shoots, there shouldn't be any foot on the line shenanigans

That Beal news is a bit disconcerting. Gotta admit lol. Still, the season is young.

My bad. I was looking at Allen.

Starting to feel like the Suns got swindled tbh.

Definitely a sour taste.
