I think we're stuck with this until we get a proper point guard. Booker is 100% a shooting guard. Making him play point guard when he is hitting his peak is crazy.


Reality is Beal and KD should be able to initiate the offense well enough for Booker to be in their position as the shooter

Just realized Little hasn't played. I assume he is injured.

Booker decided to take over in the 4th!

He's just mad because Booker is his wife's boyfriend.
Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

No Vogel is a great defensive coach. We just don't have the personnel for his strengths to be apparent right now.

A coach can't help a team that turns it over a bunch and can't secure defensive rebounds. Thats on the players

I keep forgetting how crucial Allen is to our team. As much as I despise him he can knock down his shots with regularity unlike most of our other guards.

He knows, because Draymond clearly didn't foul Nurkic earlier.

I have yet to see any indication of this supposed defensive prowess from Vogel. What you say is true about turnovers and rebounding, but I'm just not confident in his coaching ability.

And then Nurkic makes a risky pass. It's a game again. Need to score after this timeout. More importantly, get a shot up. No stupid turnover.
