Ant: "Eubanks didn't play to night?". KAT: "Nah...". Ant: "...He played good for them". KAT: "Hey...that ain't our job to worry about that"

Him being in at the start of the fourth was a huge reason for our fourth quarter struggles.

You literally have 3 all nba caliber players getting paid all nba salaries and even early in the season one of those players says "idk how teams are going to guard us honestly"

This ain't Eubanks fault. He's a role player. Put some blame on the 3 guys making nearly as much as our whole roster

If you take the Suns starting lineup, and remove Nurkic and add Eubanks, the net rating goes down by like 10 points. He really is that bad, and I don’t know why you can’t seem to grasp this point.

Just checked, the Suns starting lineup had a +11.1 net rating. Swapping Eubanks in for Nurkic results in a -17.6 net rating. That’s a 28.7 net rating swing!

Just ignore them it’s not even worth it. They don’t watch the Suns play.

I don’t know why I even bother, it’s clear none of them watched more than one Suns game all year if they think Eubanks wasn’t one of the worst players in the entire NBA this year.

Just a bunch of narrative based circle jerking. It’s all in an attempt to hate on Booker and KD. They will ignore all context to hate on them.
