If a challenge is successful you should also keep your challenge as well as your timeout.

Like in tennis. Agree 100%

I get that some are used to a 3:1 ft advantage for the Pelicans so they aren't use to this.

With that said, poor shooting still costing the Suns. Should be up by 20.

As I said earlier, it's not a result of defensive fatigue. Shamet has missed two wide open jumpers and cam johnson two wide open threes

The Pels need to weather PHX energy. If they can do that and keep the game relatively close, within 10 points or so, they can steal the game late

There are some key lineup changes and the Suns are playing with more energy tonight.

Also Pelicans shooting is averaging out since there is no way they keep shooting like 50 percent from 3 all series long.

Mikal has Ingram in hell.........no more Jae Crowder on him whos roaming around Alvarado lol

Good to seed Monty finally make adjustments. Mcgee and ayton together should have happened 3 games ago.

Holiday only in due to foul trouble for payne but with payne playing awful this series he should have been in earlier

You guys have really had horrible luck with injury, bummed not to be watching Booker.

Holiday has played like 3 minutes and already had more threes than crowder ha

Pels need CJ to step up.

Suns crowd booing a rookie is funny. Phoenix is a good scene for basketball.

garrick · Post #1873 » by **garrick** » Wed Apr 27, 2022 3:09 am

Suns are running picks on Alvarado so he can't hound CP3 in the backcourt. Need to see more of this.

Mikal Bridges would be getting a max offer this summer if he didn't sign that extension.

Pels need to keep it close enough to keep Paul on the floor. In that sense they could win even in a loss.

HotRocks34 · Post #1876 » by **HotRocks34** » Wed Apr 27, 2022 3:13 am

Suns look a lot more focused tonight

Weird observations but is Booker dressed like an adult and not a clown on the sideline?

Ducklett · Post #1878 » by **Ducklett** » Wed Apr 27, 2022 3:16 am

Every team that plays against the Suns after this series needs to send thank you gifts to Alvarado for wearing CP3 down and exhausting him.

Chris Paul needs an O2 tank.

They were at 40% the first 4 games, not 50, but yes, they were due for some more shots to miss average wise.

Who wins the series?
