    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    Why would anyone want Shamet to shoot more you ask? The reason Shamet is here for $10 million per is to shoot the rock. That's what he was brought here for. Not just to take up space & be unproductive and eat up court minutes. 10 points in 6 playoff games currently. He should be criticized just...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    Shamet was on the court 14 minutes in game 1. He puts up one shot and granted he made it. So either he's not being aggressive which he is suppose to do as a backup shooting guard or the Nuggets are shutting his a** down. If they are shutting him down he needs to see bench. If all 5 players on...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    Yeah I don't think the Suns will turn the ball over like that first game. I look for some better ball handling this time. Durant is not going to turn it over 7 times like last game. The Nuggets hit some very difficult shots & of course our defense lack that game. We need Book and Durant will...

    The Ayton Plan

    Yes that's a pitiful display on the that video by Ayton.. Ayton has no common basketball instincts. Maybe he should have played college ball for another year or two. But at that time University of Arizona had Coach Sean Miller who was a college recruiter type not known as a high profile...

    The Ayton Plan

    I think Monty's might be a factor but hey Ayton's has gotta paid since day one five years ago. And now at salary of $33 million dollars per and you would think he would have a love & competition for the game & that would be enough motivation and just having pride in your work. Should Mark...

    hypothetical with Hawks

    I going have to pass only because I wouldn't want Trae. Trae's shot selection questioned, his lack of defense, and lack of size 6'0" & if he can fit in with KD & Booker. Now Clint Capella as rim protector & rebounder might work well with KD Booker. Capella & some picks or players. Just my...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    You know I think the turnover problem from game 1 won't be repeated at least not by Durant (7 turnovers) & Booker(3 turnovers). Denver treasured that first win more because the Suns eliminated them last time and they certainly didn't want the Suns to start up 1-0 on them. With our weak bench...

    The Ayton Plan

    It's inexcusable that Ayton's has to be hollered at to hustle in the NBA playoffs. 5 years and he still doesn't get it. He could be the xfactor for the Suns but instead he's a puzzle to be figured out what he'll bring or not. I used to back him but enough is enough. He doesn't the heart nor...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Monday game thread 5-1-2023- Game 2

    That's funny but Monty. Shamet has scored what 10 points in 6 playoff games so far. He's not going bring it. A waste of $10 million and a spot that could have been given to a productive rotation player if James Jones did his job. And on top of that Monty seems to love Landry. Landry...

    Playoffs: Clippers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-25-2023 - Game 5

    Ayton hasn't figure out the little things of the game that play such a vital part of winning. On the offensive side I watched Sabonis do exactly what you are suppose to do on the offensive end & he does it with his good passing, his playing the angles for rebounds and gaining better position &...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Clippers Saturday game thread 4-22-2023 - Game 4

    Most of the time I don't understand the Ayton evaluation here and the huge cerebral praise of the big Physical Euro centers as though Ayton has no grey matter for the game at all. Zubac didn't out cerebral or out physical play Ayton as Zubac averaged 6.8 point and 6.8 rebound in 26 minutes over...

    Playoffs: Clippers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-18-2023 - Game 2

    Yeah the Suns did get Durant but I was referring to the bench. And you gotta give up something to get something. But you also got cover up your weaknesses. That bench hole wasn't covered. Now it glaring problem exposed.

    Playoffs: Clippers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-18-2023 - Game 2

    And that's unfortunate but true there's no Suns bench. But for example I not saying the Lakers are going to lite it up and gain that 18th chip but they made moves to improve themselves for these playoffs. Suns were complacent as usual in their efforts.

    Playoffs: Clippers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-18-2023 - Game 2

    That exactly what what Monty needs. Some fire!! But don't most nice guys finish last they say? Some fire and some adjustments would be cool to win over the team and get some wins. Oh yeah and keep that $10 million dollar supposedly shooting guard aka Laundry Shamet on the bench. Consistency is...

    Agree with all that but Monty is a calm, no reacting, and with no thought of adjustments in playoff type of coach

    Playoffs: Clippers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-18-2023 - Game 2

    I know you are being sarcastic. Suns with limited draft picks in the near future hopefully can catch a unrestricted point guard & power forward after Monty, Jones, and probably Ayton are all gone. Ayton in 5 years stills just lacks so much intensively and needs new scenery and that might not...

    Suns @ Lakers Friday game thread 4-7-2023

    Yeah. Only thing is shamet has been given so many opportunities and produced so little. His pluses don't outweighs his negatives. But it would be great if the reserves could hold on and win this and get some confidence.

    Bucks @ Suns Tuesday game thread 3-14-2023

    Suns need a coach with a backbone who will stand up to the refs and show some fighting spirit for his team. Monty's clearly not willing to do so. Soft team & coach will get a hard loss everytime. You see the look on Giannis face he knows he can get away with that as the Suns will accept their lumps.

    Bucks @ Suns Tuesday game thread 3-14-2023

    Monty just needs to voice his displeasure at the moment of those no calls fouls on offensive & defense by guys like Giannis & Luka to the refs and get a tech if necessary or even get tossed out. Monty just look deadpanned. Monty's too soft and refs are favoring the star opponents. Monty is just...

    Suns @ Mavericks Sunday game thread 3-5-2023

    Exactly! Be nice if Suns bigs were given that same leeway on drives to the basket. Woods is offense only with a lot of refs help on calls.

    Suns @ Hornets Wednesday game thread 3-1-2023

    Suns rolled the dice and Wednesday is Kevin Durant's & Suns Time forward. Looking forward to a cohesiveness of all five players on that court working together for the team success as we have a true Go To Player now. Here's to hoping he and the Suns mesh well from the very start. The anticipation...

    Suns @ Bucks Sunday game thread 2-26-2023

    Lopez hits big shot. Suns to advance the ball in to tie or go head with 3. Go Suns get it! Bucks make right defensive play again. Still time but tough. Tough call tough loss but Durant coming and he is going make a huge difference. Great game by Holiday as usual.

    Big time stop needed against Bucks. Holiday has to be checked hard. He's so clutch
