    there’s not a single player on this team that I like, and several that I absolutely despise watching like Sengun

    Its still on Sengun because he was suppose to dominate the paint. He's playing against an after thought at center and he can't take advantage.

    Sengun is supposed to be a 1st or 2nd option

    The whole team is garbage. I've never seen such disorientation over a whole entire half season.

    To be absolutely fair, he thought he would have FVV. Not saying FVV is great, but I don't think he was banking on KD playing PG this season.

    Anyways, this is a bummer. I haven't even watched playoff games because of the first loss and now will not be able to handle losing a second game.

    Most embarrassing team I can recall. Blown leads to **** teams, get wrecked by teams they should beat easily. Can’t play defense, can’t shoot 3s, Sengun misses bunnies left and right, and dumbass PG Durant turnovers.

    Maybe karma getting its revenge. Suns beat a Warriors team the Rockets would have lost to. Crazy how we're worse with Durant.
