This is getting embarrassing. We all know it takes time to adjust to the new system or new group of guys, but we're not blind. I will not buy the "wait and see" s***.
- Deron failed to lead his team. His defense was beyond terrible. He has the talent but he looked totally lost at times.
- AK was just having fun. Brick 15-20 footers and shoot a couple of threes as if he were a good shooter. I did start to think that he is playing for another heavy contract. Well, I hope it's not the case.
- Big Al indeed is a black hole. He does not read the defense and react to it. He just try to execute what he knows, regardless of defensive schemes. He knows by rote. That's the last thing we need in this offense. He has a long way to be as good, efficient as Carlos in this system. It's easier said than done. However, his defense and rotations were not good enough for me to say that he is an upgrade over Okur. He should be thankful to Paul for making him look decent. He made Channing Frye look like Speedy Gonzales.
- CJ Miles screwed up a late run in the third quarter alone by doing what he has been criticised for: Chucker Miles at work. No defense at all. Suns reserves dominated ours. He looked like all he cared for was bricking a couple of Js and getting his stats.
- Millsap and Hayward were the only ones that showed effort, and deserved to wear that jerseys. Fes was also decent. He, actually played a lot better than Big Al.
- Players do not need to waste 5-10 games to learn how to play defense together. It's Ok to have offensive execution struggles but the terrible defensive performance of the team is inexcusable.
It sucks to see my team lose especially in a day that I had to wake up at 5:30 AM to watch.
