    You guys notice how the Suns run actual offense? It’s pretty refreshing. DHO’s , back cuts, floppy. I wish we could do that. Instead of half-assed blocker/mover flare action into isolation every possession.

    I think we have the worst system in the entire league.

    Our bench is within 1 point of their bench and that is with Ayton coming off the bench for them. Their starters are beating ours.

    I didn’t think you could call time out if you didn’t have possession of the ball?

    Because we've never stepped on an opponent's throat with Stotts as coach. We just figure we have a big lead and then guys start chucking and before you know it the lead is gone.

    Going for the quick two and then not fouling was so asinine.

    I'm done. Can't watch this team anymore. I know it took longer than many of you but this is stupid.

    It's almost like Melo saw this team wasn't going anywhere so he was like "OK, I'm just going to start going through the motions and play the style I did when I WAS a star."

    Good thing I’m already emotionally dead to this season or this would really piss me off.

    Compared to expectations? Right up there with 2001 and the Fatty Felton mess.

    I think almost all of us would agree the Blazers have more talent than the Suns.
    ....and we are playing at home.

    So what gives?
