Hard to stay focused for a full game against a bottom feeder it seems. Lesson learned hopefully and we get an easy win vs Philly. Next two winning teams in Heat and Mavs. Give us a long winning streak, Suns.

3/13 from the field for Ayton is remarkable lol.

I noticed that play and was pissed. I didn't see him get pulled for it. Glad to hear....

You'd think Ayton would have a point to prove but he played like a delicate ballerina without the touch

This is what I expected. He's a supremely talented athlete but he's not a serious baller. Last season he played in 2 of the 4 games against his old team. One game he put up 16/15 on 6 of 18 shooting. Another game he put up an efficient 18/8 and was a -33.

So Im catching up on recent games.

Dalano Banton, the giant f***ing praying mantis (absolute compliment) who killed us in the 4th quarter...I noticed that the 4th quarter was the first time he entered the game. Didnt think much of it, it was like a 20-point game, it happens a lot in that scenario.

Apparently, this is like, by design to only play him in the 4th quarter recently? And in a very small stretch, hes been killing it. This wasnt the first time he entered only the 4th. And after torching the Suns, he only played the 4th in their next game a dropped 20 in the qtr too lol.

Im fascinated :lol:
