Game 47: Phoenix Suns (19-27) @ Dallas Mavericks (29-17)

That's such a weak call against Ayton. There was another extremely weak call earlier on Rubio against Porzingis.

Monty needed to challenge that one. It wasn't a foul.

Watch out for Barea he can kill you instantly

Please keep Bridges in the starting lineup

Brickstaps one of the most overrated players in the league. This is how he played on the Knicks. Starts off the year hot and then drops off drastically when it's January

I noticed that too, while he was still over there. I just don't think his body can hold up for an nba season. I didn't want to trade for him when there were rumors he was available.

I hated Phil Jackson but he was right on one thing, KP might be too tall to play basketball.

Even though the Knicks free agency was terrible I would rather have Julius Randle over him. Also, great to see Ayton ball out tonight.

Didn't Phil draft him?

I wouldn't take Ayton outuntil he's tired, because you need to rest him when he is tired and not give him long stretches. Maybe for a little while here, but if we start to give up the lead, put him back in.

He has four fouls.

I know, I'm just saying you don't know that he will get more, and if he ends the game with 4 fouls, it was kind of a waste to sit him. Obviously you don't want to risk it, but we don't have depth, so I would bench him for a little while, but if the lead starts to evaporate, put him back in. If he gets a 5th foul, so be it. But it looks like our lead is growing, so no problem....for now.

Pretty much playing a perfect game. Did not expect that.

Suns playing great

Bookaaaaaaa

hmm i guess we were right all along, bridges MUST start

[DroughtsOverPHX]

Holy spit. We are showing actual swagger. I hope we don't blow this. It would be a massive boost.

Better to have played 30 minutes and fouled out than to have played 28 minutes with 5 fouls.

That's kind of the way I look at it. Like I said in my last post, I guess I would bench him and see if our lead evaporates, and if not, we bring him in. But it grew, so all good.....for now.

No lead is too big for the Suns.

Booker playing like a beast tonight. Even his defense isn't bad.

Thia is probably the most winnable game we will have all year. I expect Booker to go off for 40+, Ayton 30+, Oubre 20+, Bridges 10+. Doncic might get his 60 but we'll end up winning when it counts.

Suns 133 Mavs 111

This post isnt laughable anymore.

AAAAALLL STAAAAR

[TheLogician]

BLOW THEM OUT. We need this.

Nuggets couldn't help us today.

still funny because it will be hard for Dallas to make 111

saric never gets a call

[grumpysaddle]

Barea needs to go back to Mordor.
