Yeah Iβve read nothing but good things about how it performs in both docked and handheld mode! Itβs nice that the days of Nintendo platforms being vastly inferior are gone

Another low-minute night for Mark Williams. Earlier today, I wrote about the highs and lows of his season from both an optimistic and pessimistic point of view:

Just a reminder that heading into the season, most people expected the Suns to trade vets like Royce O'Neale and Grayson Allen.
Instead, they're closing out tight wins over the Lakers, all with Devin Booker and Dillon Brooks out injured. Incredible stuff

Make that Lakers defense move and it's curtains lol Royce O'Neale with the go-ahead 3 with 0.9 seconds left off of Grayson Allen's drive and great pass to the corner, excellent swing from Collin Gillespie

Oof. Two massive missed 3s from Grayson Allen that were wide open that I'm sure he already wants back. Tie game with 22.7 seconds left, Suns ball

Fun 10-0 Suns run there, punctuated by a gorgeous layup from Rasheer Fleming past Deandre Ayton, a smooth Jamaree Bouyea finish in transition, an Oso Ighodaro swat on DA at the rim and back-to-back transition 3s from Grayson Allen. 2-point game again

Yeah I donβt wanna hear shit about how Devin Booker fell off because his scoring is like 1-2 points down or his 3P% is bad or whatever.
You cannot watch this Suns offense right now and tell me his impact is anything less than immense

Rasheer Fleming hasn't scored a single point but is still having a significant impact on the game. 6 boards, +12 in 11 minutes. Keep finding minutes for that kid!

14-2 Lakers run since that last timeout. Not gonna make any sweeping declarations about Jalen Green coming back from injury to this shorthanded version of the Suns, but they could really do with him shaking off that rust a bit quicker

The highs and lows of Mark Williams are worth a conversation. So for @sunsafterdark.bsky.social, I had that conversation with myself, pitting optimist vs. pessimist to make sense of his first season with the #Suns:

Yeah that list is a bit old now, Pluribus would be an addition for sure and Iβd probably change the order a bit. Slow Horses is on my list but I havenβt gotten around to it yet, Iβve heard good things though!
