76ers vs Suns SL Game Thread 7/12/18

I havent watched a lot of Ayton.. Does he have a mean streak?

He abused the Magic in the previous game. Tonight he played like poop.

 

[Finito]

Relax this is Aytons first game he didn't look great in. JJJ, Trae Young, Bamba have all had ups and downs there kids remember that

 

[Mainstreet]

I'm wondering why Okobo only played 1 minute.

 

[Finito]

Yep. Sure was.

How do you figure they lost by 2 points and that was a clear foul at the end not to mention the blown back court call.

Suns went deep into the bench the entire 3rd quarter dude.

Embarrassing is getting blown out by 25 not losing by a bucket in a good game

 

[Mainstreet]

They won the game 3 opening tip after chasing it down.

Nice to know.

 

[SunsFanFirst]

Well it was good experience there. I was ready to write them off several times in the last 5 minutes and they proved otherwise

This is what I took from it they came back and executed Igors plan down the stretch ran good plays and played smart

Losing to the #30 76ers who had zero wins in SL when the Suns were #3 and unbeaten is embarrassing even for SL standards...dude.

Ayton sucked today! He suddenly has the dreaded Romello White disease. He can't catch or hold onto the ball! Very lackadaisical play by Ayton!

Here’s the important part of Summer League:

Nobody suffered a long-term injury.

That’s all you should care about.

 

[Bufalay]

Ayton had 6 turnovers

He played lazy today, but dear God, please don’t put those two in the same sentence ever again. Romello White dreams of playing as well as Ayton does on his off days.

 

[ArizonaSportsFan]

Yeah, disappointing, but venting over summer league is pointless. However, if Shaq had a lick of sense on offense the Suns blow them away.

Go watch UofA @ Oregon from last season.

 

[Mainstreet]

Shaq played his heart out so I'm not going to point my finger at him. Ideally he is a 3rd PG.

With Okobo playing only one minute, it looked like Reed played some PG today. The Suns need to keep both of these players.

What I noticed was he wasn't really sweating. Not a lot of effort at all.

He looked drenched earlier. I think going most of the 3rd quarter with the deep scrub bunch really cost us. The guards kept trying to feed Ayton at the start of the game and a lot of passes were stolen or ripped from Deandre's hands and that clearly frustrated him. His effort really seemed to dip after being called for what looked to be a questionable foul on a 3 point shot. To me, he never really looked involved from then on.

It would have been nice to see us (and especially Ayton) match the physicality of the 76ers. But I've seen some of this from Ayton before. Besides playing soft at times, I've commented before on his hands. Most people rave about them but every now and then, it's like he's wearing winter gloves out there. Still, I'm not worried. It's too bad he wasn't in great shape but hopefully this will all be a learning experience for him.

Ayton was just doing his best Bender and Chriss impersonations tonight.

All joking aside, a 19 year-old kid is gonna have really bad games. I am not worried about him at all.

 

[Mainstreet]

Kokoskov explains part of the problem.

I was wondering what happened to Okobo during the game.

 

[GatorAZ]

If Ayton isn’t in peak physical shape he will get exposed in the league. I would be shocked if he doesn’t look like a Greek God again coming into training camp.

 

[gimpy]

Come on. You guys and your man love.

 

[Cheesebeef]

definitely not Ayton's finest hour. He's gonna need work, like almost every big man. But tonight was definitely a stinker all the way around.

 

[JerkFace]

I’m okay with the Suns only having one more game. The youngins got a taste, now lets get out of Vegas with no serious injuries.
