Jones carrying us so far. Kuzma needs to tone down the shot jacking.

I like Jones gameplay so far but is it just me or he never ever pass the ball to Avdija? its like he's ignoring him.

I like the way BC and kispert are hunting 3s. Even if they miss a few they stay aggressive.

Gafford looking good again.

Deni is pissing me off tonite with his propensity to do the extra pass and commit a turnover or a bad shot for his team mate. Shoot the freaking ball!!

The refs decided in the third quarter they couldn’t have the Wizards win this game.

Is Wes going to use any of his challenges, like ever?

Looked to me like it was worth challenging Durant’s four point play for a Nurkic clear out.

Two bad teams, those pick swaps looks tasty. Hats off to Gafford tonight, excellent game.

Wes won a challenge in the 1st half

Just when you think he's going to be aggressive..

Oh well, good job, good effort by the Wizards. It is tough to maintain a double digit lead when you are outrebounded by a lot and can't score efficiently in half court.

Good on Gafford for a strong game. The missed dunk would have been icing, and would have kept us in the ballgame. Oh well...

In the end though, we missed on a bunch of silly shots. We also decided to slow the ball donw, and that played to the Suns advantage. Happy for how they all played in Q1, Q2, and most parts of the 3Q.

Avdija has disappeared. He doesnt seem to get the ball much, and is just playing D. Some of that is on Kuzma..no reason he should be jacking 13 three point shots when he was cold from out there

Not good for the win-loss ledger, but who cares. Good for Tyus Jones trade-value meter. Happy for Gaff.

Beal wanted no part of the French Glove.

Co-sign, but this is who Deni is as a player, extremely frustrating

Anyone remember how people were posting last year that Brad & Kuz didn't get along?

Read on Twitter

Really looks like it, huh?

Beal is a DC legend? Yeah right..
