Suns @ Wizards Thursday game thread 1-16-2025

Rumor: Richards will meet upon with the Suns in Detroit.

For a moment I thought you were going to say airport.

oso only 3 boards in 15 minutes - just not gonna cut it - love the kid but he's gotta pick it up

IDK. We are out rebounding them. Plumlee has the most rebounds at 5. I know normally 3 boards in a half is bad, but this game looking at the box score, it seems in line with everyone else in the game.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Yeah, but the Suns shouldn't be even counting on him to produce this season. That's a personnel issue with the GM.

i think he'll figure it out - glad he's getting the minutes

I'm sure he will, but the Suns shouldn't even have to rely on Oso or trade for a starting center during the season.

 

[Yuma]

That sucks for Richards. He's not even with the team yet, but he's getting a DNP for the game.

Not a rumor, it's been said by the coach.

Tom Leander said it really weird, like it was a maybe.

i bet bud told plum and oso (and nurk?) the starting gig is open for center - that it isn't automatically richards' that'll start - or at least that's what im hoping because a three-way competition might be best

However, who would he be fooling? They even know Richards should start.

I think it is open until they get home and are able to run a real practice. So for the next 3 games it's a toss up. Throwing someone in the deep end like that when they aren't a regular starter could create problems.

Richards will have the job sooner than later though.

 

[BirdGangThing]

you just got dunned son

 

[BirdGangThing]

ballsy 3 by book

 

[Hoop Head]

Glad to see the Suns play like they should against the lowly Wizards.

likely - but ish-bia is nuts lol - all we know richards could be a trading piece himself

 

[Mainstreet]

Allen has 18 of the Suns 20 bench points.

 

[Proximo]

This wiz team is really bad. Clearly worse than the hornets.

 

[BirdGangThing]

tyus has no business guarding kuzma tho for real

 

[hcsilla]

Jones has completely lost his shooting touch in recent weeks.

 

[BirdGangThing]

dirty foul by george

 

[BirdGangThing]

look at the defensive pressure by dunn on the inbound

 

[Mainstreet]

This wiz team is really bad. Clearly worse than the hornets.

Yet, I still have to worry about the Suns frittering the game away.

 

[BirdGangThing]

THE SUNS FAN HECKLING THE WIZARD FREE THROW SHOOTERS NEEDS TO BE FLOWN TO PHX FOR A GAME

 

[BirdGangThing]

dunn with 9 rebounds now 14 points and 2-2 from 3

 

[BirdGangThing]
