Phoenix Suns‘ Big 3, Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, and Devin Booker haven’t been able to shine like the world expected. Going down to the Timberwolves in the second game has also put the Big 3 chemistry in question. According to some reports, there are some frustrations within the team. One former NBA player seems to notice the issue and has been very blunt with his opinion.

Rashad McCants was on Gilbert Arenas’s Show with Lexie Brown and discussed that the lack of playmaking ability has hurt the Suns. Explaining how the Big 3 of Suns need to trust each other more while creating opportunities. “There’s the elephant in the room though, for me. Elephant in the room is Brad, Book KD are on the court at the same time. All deferring to each other trying to figure out who the f**k. 

The former Wolves player feels Beal needs to focus on playmaking and not just shooting. “when we just need you to move the f**k around and move around to me is go do all the other s**t. Other than try to expect to get your shot off.” Lexie Brown even suggested, “You think it would be the end of the world if they brought Bill off the bench?”

According to many, the Suns have been missing a true point guard. To address the issue, they signed Isaiah Thomas for a 10-day contract thanks to his performance in G-Legaue. Later the veteran guard was signed for the entire season, but they have hardly used him during the playoff season. Playing 4 minutes off the bench in the first and not playing at all in the second. And now the likes of Jamal Crawford and Chandler Parsons have called out the Suns for not starting the point guard. What do Big3 feel about their performance?

“We’ll be better, man. Everybody wants to be perfect, I think everybody wants to win. I think we’re pressing a little bit. And I think now we can settle down, go home and just get back to playing the way we know we can.” This was the sentiment shared by Beal on the Suns falling apart again via Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports.

“My frustration is just within the team. We need to execute. We play well when we’re playing and then we need to stick together once things turn bad…“Devin Booker on the recurring problem this season via Duane Rankin.

Kevin Durant made a plea to Suns’ fans and acknowledged that they have been disappointing in the last 2 games. “but we need you more than ever now coming back home for Game 3.” via Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports. Now, with Games 3 and 4 at their home turf, Kevin Durant and Co. will look to avenge the loss in front of their fans. It remains to be seen how will the Big 3 solve their defensive issues.
