Halliburton clearly fouled him 1st. How is That marginal?

How do you not foul before he has a chance to take a 3?

True. OTOH, his spreading the floor opens up the lane for drivers. Despite being out rebounded last night, they took 2 more shots. The difference was shooting %.

Interesting analyses, but maybe they lost simply bc 4 of their starters couldn’t hit a shot in the 1st half, and this Mamu character couldn’t miss.

Go ahead. It won’t hurt.

These slow starts are annoyingly way too common.

If there were such a thing as league winner, it would be his teammate, Naji Marshall.

Give him as much time off to heal as possible to be healthy for playoffs. Rushing him back to try to hold on to 3rd seed is not worth it. 3rd is not that much better than 4th, 5th, or 6th.

Terrible idea! As it is, there aren’t enough minutes to go around for many of the bench players. The younger bench players won’t get nearly enough playing time to develop in the NBA, and more will be sent to the G-league. And 2 1/2 hours is a perfect amount of time to watch a game.

I feel there must be character issues more than performance that got him benched. I watched Nurk dominate and put up huge numbers in some games last season and believe he still could if given the chance. Based on 2 Suns podcasts I listened to, he’s become a scapegoat for much of the Suns’ struggles.
