Bucks @ Suns Tuesday game thread 2-6-2024

I don't understand how you aren't seeing why that is. They are obviously trying to get him in foul trouble. Whether it's working is a separate issue, but one has to be blind not to see it.

And they would have him in foul trouble if the referees contact prescription had been updated.

Can't argue there. But it's up to the coach to switch things up If something isn't working.

They also aren't doubling KD so there aren't a lot of open shooters when he's posting up Giannis. If they do that almost every play, then it's no wonder Grayson hasn't seen the ball much.

Beal sets the tone early - even tho his shot got blocked

 

[Phrazbit]

They need to play faster... move the ball...

Basically the same stuff they are not doing every time they struggle.

Defensively we are giving them open 3s on purpose, so far it has mostly worked.

 

[BirdGangThing]

He’s touched the ball like twice.

that half we had awful ball movement.

50pts in the first half against a team who was 30-13 before beheading their coach

 

[Mainstreet]

Good to see Booker hit the open corner three.

 

[BirdGangThing]

NURK!!!

 

[Phrazbit]

Hey! Ball movement leads to an open 3!

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns need Nurkic. He now has 3 fouls.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Fropez has seriously fallen off

 

[Chaplin]

Defense had picked up

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns are having shots spin out and miss FTs.

 

[Chaplin]

What is going on with the free throws?!

 

[Covert Rain]

They're only leading by 1 and neither team cracked 50 in the first half. It's not like the Bucks are steamrolling us, even though some posters like to think they are.

I didn’t read the entire thread. Someone said they are steamrolling us? I don’t think that but we are 100% underperforming considering we are at full strength and they clearly are not.

It’s not working AT ALL.

we don’t need to get Gianni’s in foul trouble, he’s the only scorer they have. Their horrific bench is playing huge minutes.

we need to blow this team out.

 

[Mainstreet]

It's almost like the Suns are having Finals flashbacks tonight.

It's almost like the Suns are having Finals flashbacks tonight.

First 2 games or last 3???

 

[Mainstreet]

Yes. Grayson Allen hits the open three.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Beal was fouled af

 

[Chaplin]

It's almost like the Suns are having Finals flashbacks tonight.

Booker or Kevin Young? Because those are the only 2 guys that are still here from that finals team.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns missed a golden opportunity to put some distance from the Bucks.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Wow Booker just pushed Grayson into Fropez - where Grayson should've been apparently

 

[BirdGangThing]

Grayson is not having a good night - like at all - but it happens

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns need to develop a killer instinct, the ability to put a team away when they are vulnerable.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Grayson can get open - he can drive and create his own shot - he's gotten good at getting close to the ball handler and the creating space after the double team

He's 1-2 from 3 tonight

3pts
