Another overlooked stat, this team has 7 assists ALL game. Has to be a season low by far.

Kidd depends on Luka for movement

When Luka doesn’t move, we have no movement

When Suns stay out on shooters, they let Luka do it all and Ayton has done a decent enough job making it all Luka

This team just doesn't have enough talent against the best teams. We could use the offense of a Desmond Bane or Saddiq Bey, or Tyrese Maxey or any other player that went after Josh Green that had discernible basketball skills. I still think the failure of 2019 offseason where we wasted cap space and the failure to land a player at 17th in the 20 draft when a half dozen very good players went after JG will be the eventual undoing of the Luka era hitting its potential. Maybe Nico et al can pull off a miracle but those were wasted team building years.

It's not from a lack of assist attempts. They literally couldn't hit any open shots after the 1st quarter. Remember Luka hitting Bullock and DFS a couple of times for wide open 3s. THose were quality assist attempts.

too much dribble dribble dribble and that took other guys out of the game right from the start

The TNT crew highlighted that by halftime
