You tell Lebron to play in the post triple threat and he'll play til 45.

Re: Friday 10/25 NBA Game Thread
Shades of last season for the Suns. It just goes to show that this experiment with Durant and Beal isn't going to work and never will. I don't know what it'll take for Ishbia to swallow that plate of crow he's made for himself, but he better start chewing.

How’s his defense been? That was my only concern for him coming out of college. I had no doubt about his shot.

Re: Friday 10/25 NBA Game Thread
Suns still have many of the same problems at last season. They've looked pretty bad now against two opponents that will likely not be around when the playoffs come around. Still too soft inside, still don't know how to incorporate three scorers.
It's early in the season but the Lakers, Clippers and Portland are the only bad teams the Suns will be facing in the first 10 games so these type of games are must wins if you don't want to start the season with a negative win record.

Portland's backcourt is kind of a work in progress, so it's hard to say. They haven't put a ton of pressure on him on that end.

Lakers are not a bad team the way JJ has AD playing.

Pelicans aren't seriously trying to win with Theis as their starting Center right? Lol

Ingram and Simons share a baby mother, so of course Brandon wants to hit a GW winner on him.

No shooting center also. Kills the spacing. They did better since playing Durant at the five but he’s not quite physical enough to stop the paint scoring. More of a small ball lineup but it wears him down more in that capacity.

I'm not sold on them, but like everyone else I've been wrong plenty times before so time will tell. I didn't see anything tonight that made me think they're any good - this is the same type of play from the Suns that I saw all last season when lottery teams were spanking them left and right.

Through two games, Yves Missi has been a difference maker rim running, contesting shots at the rim and rebounding. If this isn't a fluke, they might be able to get away with him and Theis for a season.

It’s okay to **** on your own team, but don’t discredit and compare us to the Clippers. We just came back from a 22 point deficit, I hate to break it to you but no crappy team is doing that.
