Finally, game is about to start. The Bulls-Bucks game was a snooze fest especially with Giannis injuring his wrist he barely played. Also, did the Twolves blow a 20+ lead at home against the Wizards?

This is a key battle. If we can beat these guys with no KD, that's huge for our psyche....and theirs.

Is there a more boring commentator pairing than Jim Jackson and Spero Dedes?
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

It takes too long to get into our offense. We should dump it down to the big guy to start the 1st and 3rd quarters

Lots of bad shots to start the game. We look like crap.

They’re going to double book on many possessions and Morris guarding Ayton closely whenever DA gets the ball. Not sure how we will win tonight’s game.

Zubes is wildly overrated imo. They should force the switch with DA and attack Ayton's man or if we insist on using our guards. Attack Zubes off the dribble with our guards.


I remain VERY hesitant that Monty can not F this whole thing up.

Never fails. Throw the hard press double on Booker and he'll cough it up for a basket on the other end.

Shades of game 7 for sure.

Ayton trying to go 6 straight games of 20+ points on 60+ fg % to tie Shawn Marion. Is that what I heard last game?

Ayton needs to worry about checking his man and defending the paint. He's not done much of either to this point.

I don't understand how he's sooooo bad at handling doubles and traps. It mystfies me everytime.
