Fair enough. I was beating a dead horse there. My point is dunks don't matter as long as he gets it in the hoop. That's all we should care about.

I care about the team playing at maximum potential.It's not really the dunking.If Ayton just attacked more aggresively on offense, defenses would have to adjust, and the team would be harder to defend.Honestly, Ayton could've had 40+ easy tonight with a lil tenacity & relentlessness.I think everybody here would love to see him develop into a HOF beast.He just looks a lil aloof at times.


I agree and FTR a lot of my posts were some light-hearted counter trolling to Diddy giving everyone a running count of the non dunks...when Ayton was shooting hooks and jumpers that were swishing. Many of which were shot right into a Minny defenders face. It was weird that on his best night as a Sun, we still had posters calling (hinting) that he played like crap. That's all.

Either way. It was a good win and now just 4 more are needed for the all time record. LFG.

I saw that. KAT kept looking over to the Suns bench too. Over and over like a sad little kid.

I don’t think their that cool with each other anymore because of the off the court stuff with their women. But whatever.

Nasty.

I had the Minny feed, because I live here, but the look on Booker's face when Mikal pointed at him, was like that Budwiser commercial, "Whats upppppp!" :lol:

I had Minny feed too and saw that as well lol. They were like little kids laughing during live play and then Book told Bridges to get back focused lol.

And Book ground out another 28 pt game. He’s been money on his over. Crowder Fd me tonight on a chunky 5 way parlay…. 1.5 threes … come on Jae.

That is a tough bet, Jae has been so inconsistent this year. He did make a good steal at the end of the game.


Yeah, he was the greedy toss in with Bridges 1.5 3s, 15.5 pts, Ayton 10.5 rbs and 18.5 pts . Kickin myself

Bridges has been solid on overs since all star break.

bwgood77 wrote:Great game. Wolves are tough. We were playing hard coming out but they jumped out ahead. Ayton really came out with a lot of energy. Rebounding and scoring. He could have had a career high if he would have dunked a couple of close ones he tried to lay in that rolled out which was frustrating and then got an obvious goaltending call. Nice to see Shamet hitting shot after shot. Very nice win.

This feels like it could be a playoff series....I'd much prefer facing the Lakers, even with AD. We will need to be full strength against the Wolves.

KAT kind of a punk. He was annoying.


I like KAT still, on the court he's had to deal with a lot of the same nonsense Book had to put up with just because of the incompetence around him had people questioning his ability. Plus all the personal stuff he's had to deal with the past couple of years.

People were always fine kicking them when they were down I have no problem with him barking back now the team has started to put it together.

I don't see the Lakers winning 2 straight, but I'd much prefer them for a number of reasons.

I forgot about the beef between the Kardashians and the Jordan girl. Still kinda weird. I though I saw a pic of all of them together recently. Maybe not.

I just love seeing the joy that all our players have for each other. And in a game where the refs were allowing so much contact go against Book, he found a moment to smile from ear to ear on that pass.

The best part about Sham finding his shot...we can move Crowder to the bench now. ;) Well when CamJo comes back. 8-)

Anyone here remember how much tickets cost for last year's opening game vs the LAL in the playoffs? I think I'm gonna try and make my way there. I'll be in AZ April 10-16....

i went to game 1 abd sat in the 200 secions near the corners. i believe the tickets were like $200 each before taxes and fees. i too am planning to go this year, since i didnt get to make it out to Phoenix for the regular season.

Amazing team. Who would have thought they'll keep 9+ game lead on Grizz and Warriors with CP3 out.

I'm here at the bar with my buddy and he was complaining about being dragged to the Philippines for a month to see his wife's family. Said he's gonna tell (ask) her for a week off to go do stuff.

My other buddy is a huge LAL fan, so we're thinking we can make it happen. Only 300 round-trip from Hawaii to AZ. I can swing 200 for a playoff game for sure. Haven't seen the Suns play live since the Nash years-early Nash years at that.

I haven't read the earlier pages so not sure about the other posts specifically but DA was great on offense tonight but he absolutely left points on the board by shying away from contact. Little things matter in playoff games at the highest level. And i know it's crazy to say but it's entirely reasonable for him having a great overall game and for him to have made some correctable mistakes that can be frustrating to both be true statements.

One thing I get from this game is that the playoffs are gonna be so freaking stressful. Great win. Playoff feel for sure
