I might be able to catch a full game finally.

Hoping the big 3 play. Also hope our second big 3 play (Grayson, Gordon, Nurkic).

Our Big Hero 6 squad is unbeatable so far in the season! (2-0. Wins against the Hornets and Magic :D)

Body language and vibe around the team is downtrodden right now and its the same around here.

Absolutely Need a win tonight and another one against the Lakers in a days time. Flush the season down the toilet if we go 0-2 this trip.

Not able to watch the game as I'm at the hospital with my wife for her grandma. Based on the score, it's still close. Hopefully by the time I get home, we'll have pulled this out.

Keep up those catch and shoot 3s...much better than the pull up 3s.

Pretty much a guaranteed win with Big Hero 6 playing. Our offense looks good when they move the ball around and not run ISO ball.

Have to bench Nurkic. That is as disgusting an effort on defense to start a game as I can remember from any Suns player in my lifetime. He is guarding absolutely nobody and getting killed on the glass.

They should play Udoka more. He can finish and defend the rim. 77% from the field...3 blk per 36.

Booker is the worst defender on this team. He’s so bad. He’s DLO bad

I really wish our players would focus on making the bucket more than drawing a foul. And not pout when they don't get it. This team is so very unlikeable.

Yeah Nurkic struggles when the opposing center isn't a midget.

He can have some huge rebounding nights when he's physically bigger than the other center but when matched up against quality bigs he just doesn't have it.

Said it before, but it's annoying how Paul George is the GOAT whenever he plays against the Suns.

It's not even about the opposition. His EFFORT is inexcusable. He is slowly going halfway towards Westbrook with his hands at his size, thus guarding nobody, allowing Westbrook to shoot or pass, and then when the pass zips past his head he just truns and swipes at Zubac. He is lazy as all hell and seems to be pouting like he did in the 4th last night when he wasn't getting calls. Our team needs to stop being babies and grow the **** up

It’s getting to the point where I think this team plays better with Booker on the bench.

I like the lineups we're putting out there today.

Vogels realised since we can't guard anybody anyway, we need offensively competent lineups out there at all times.

I think we may need to see how Bol does with the starters. I don't think Nurkic's passing is as valuable as Bol's length. Nurkic is the better player but not when he plays like this, and Bol gives us some energy that we desperately need.

We need Okogie to shoot 500 3s a day. We need him so badly for his defense and rebounding but cannot have him on the court due to shooting

I hope KD stays aggressive.You can tell Ty Lue has absolutely zero respect for Booker's defense.They put him on an island that whole 1st qtr.
