Who knows. I think one thing may be that he isnt used to resting throughout the game so much. He used to be in there for as many minutes as possible, thus allowing him to stay warm and get himself in a groove feasting on the opposing teams bench unit......where now he sits much much sooner and for much longer.


Booker isnt some1 who wants 70 point games.

Book wants WINS.

He doesnt care how or who gets them.

Booker is a true competitor.


Lets be real, Booker wants both. He wants the wins and he wants to be "The Man". You know damn well he wouldnt be happy in a bench role on a perennial title contending team like the Lakers. He wants to be the star and get the wins. But all i was stating is that he isnt able to get himself in a rhythm playing against a bench squad anymore because he is siting out and resting.

Good thing Murray isn't a MMA fighter because he got a giant beak.

Yes, isn't Rip one of his favorite players? Honestly if he could mostly be like a Ray Allen, he'd be great. Ray Allen was good as the alpha dog on the Sonics during our 04-05 season but as fun as that team was with Rashard Lewis and I can't remember who else, Ray was better suited with how he was utilized in Milwaukee, Boston and Miami...and he could always still get his own when needed.

Not sure about the Booker hate today. Hes made 60% of his shots, only 1 turnover, and passable defense for a change.

Nice play on Murray, Ayton!

Also shooting well. 6-9 but two of his misses were a 3 that wasn't far off and a little lay in on a lob that he got the oreb on and put it in.

Yeah, other than that bad pass off the backboard, he has been fine. Made a couple of his nice Booker-esque shots.

It is weird he seems like our 7th or 8th best 3 pt shooter during games though.

Though he does try too many pull up 3s.

11 up at the half, on the road, against a contender and Booker has 6pts. DA with a great 13/7 while playing really good team D. That's a GREAT position to be in.

I didn't think we'd be this good this quickly and we still have a lot space to improve

I haven't seen any booker hate at all. We're just so used to him being the focus of the offense, and it's obvious that he's still figuring things out this season.

This is the stuff we want to see from Ayton. Be the finisher on offense and then lead the defense.

Exactly! The refs have been allowing him to overplay CP3 all night.Inadvertent contact.
