Suns are the worst 4 qt team in the league. Heat are 29th place with -3.5. Suns is last with -6.1. That is widest margin between the ranks. With Beal and Durant, who can justify being this bad. Stop criticize fans who are frustrated by the team. Suns deserve criticism. Sacramento who is also missing their best player and doing much better than Suns.
Guy's aren't hitting shots when KD passes the ball. I don't want to hear any Kd hate not in the game without him.
What a joke. Comparing d book off the suns to doncic off the Mavs and curry off the warriors knowing damn well KD and Beal are elite nba players and should still be winning those games without book. Curry is the only elite nba player on his team and Kyrie and doncic are the elites of the Mavs while the suns have 3 elite players. What a bad comparison. There’s no excuses not winning winnable games with two elite players out of 3. Suns can get the backlash like the Lebron, AD and Westbrook lakers were getting
kd always been a choker. Nothing new here. he cant lead a team and never have.
When the Suns sat out all the starters in game 2 of the preseason against the defending champs, who played everyone, I knew the Suns were not mentally ready to dominate. No surprise here!
Frank Vogel stinks. He needs to go. The guy can’t coach basketball. Should’ve never fired Monty for this crap.
Why do you guys keep bringing up kd iso ? Kd took only 4 shots all 4th how about you check the percentages of the players other then kd in th 4th? They’re all horrible role players aren’t making shits it’s not freaking just kd iso everyone is MISSING SHOTS, if role players were hitting shots and kd iso is costing Gsmes sure, but role players have been AWFUL. And it’s also defense !
Devin Booker would still lose with this team if you swapped him with kd, role players are missing all their shots in th 4th kds passing to them
It’s not kds fault in the 4th it’s the role players not making shots that simple and Frank playing non spacers, stop saying sharing the ball the ball is being passed and role players can’t make shots what the hell is wrong with you guys
Brad Beal has scored 2 points two games in a row now second half, he’s missing open shots yet yall wanna always bring up kd lmao they don’t give him the ball enough you have good win and Allen looking him off and driving and turning it over instead, Josh is 0% FG get realistic man
The real problem is that if our only answer to possibly getting better is having Booker play despite still having BOTH Durant and Beal playing, then we're not really a championship caliber contender.
And we mortgaged our entire future to build a super team to contend. And we can't even keep our max players healthy enough to even play.
play in or out of the playoffs, you can see it on KD face. No chemistry. no real chance. I’m gonna keep saying it over and over. They came into the season dealing with injuries and worse, the team just got thrown together. EVERYBODY THATS IMPORTANT NEED TO BE IN THE LINEUP. Not sitting out games, your team don’t have no heart or no sense of urgency.
sucked. missing Ayton now…
This dude Flex said "this is not a great basketball team" then turns around and says "this is not a bad basketball team" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
bruh 2/21 is below 10% fml
KD getting stuck with 3 players on him at the end. Makes the play and they misses
Chemistry Chemistry
Agree on espo they need to play defense and reb
I think bradley beal is still not on hes a game
