Bucks @ Suns Wednesday game thread 2-10-2021

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Oh what a horrible heart breaking loss. Fought all the way back against one of the best teams in the NBA.

way to blow the game Ayton.

HAHAHAHAHA

Such a lame post. Because the rest of the team around him closed this out and the bucks couldn’t close doesn’t absolve him of a terrible second half. It’s like you don’t understand basketball. You can win in spite of poor play by a player.

 

[jagu]

And Booker missed back to back shots and a free throw yet not a peep out of your mouth about him. Huh that’s odd.

it’s almost like it’s your fetish. Your whole Ayton thing is a little odd

Missing shots does not equal terrible play making. Everyone misses shots.

 

[Chaplin]

Our bench was not great, but I can’t say enough about Frank. 14/8/8. I’ll take that at that position any night.

Ayton was guarding Giannis that last play. But no credit there because it doesn’t fit your ongoing narrative.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

This is not the same team that lost to Detroit and Washington.

I’m starting to grow my confidence in this team beyond making the playoffs to a four seed and getting past the first round. Just got to get our walking wounded healthy.

 

[Proximo]

Great win, even though we choked a bit in the last 2 minutes.

guess you might have been right about the 3 point d because we almost shut them down in the 2nd half.

To be fair they seemed to miss wide open 3s too.

Take a step back from this particular back and forth . . . do you think Ayton played a good second half tonight?

 

[Cheesebeef]

The end of that game is exactly why I think the Bucks ain’t doing squat in the playoffs again. They are a great regular season team because they routinely win blowouts. But in close games, like playoff games, Giannis routinely either makes big mistakes or settles for jumpers which he can’t hit because he doesn’t want to be at the line.

and they have no one else who can really create great shots for themselves.

but back to us... a great W! Paul and Book couldn’t hit broadside of the barn in the last two minutes but we pulled it out, winning 6 of our last 7. I’ll take it.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns coming back after the way the Bucks shot in the first have was remarkable.

They took the Bucks best punches and fought their way back for the win.

And you’re right about book. But at least we got shots. Ayton GAVE THE BALL TO THE OTHER TEAM WHILE STANDING AT THE BASKET.

Can’t really argue with that. I jus want to point out I didn’t really talk about them as a playoff team. Just a team.

Yup. Frank has been nothing short of a revelation lately.

 

[Mainstreet]

Hope Crowder is ok

Same here although he did the post game show on FSAZ and seemed all right... at least for tonight.

 

[Finito]

no the lame post was complaining someone blew the game when the game wasn’t even over because you couldn’t wait to jump out your seat and scream TOLD YOU SO.

you’d rather Ayton suck than the Suns win. It brings you joy being right more than being wrong and the team winning.

I’m dead serious. The obsession you have with Ayton is odd. Like I said Booker missed back to back shots and missed a free throw yet not a word about him taking bad shots.

we get it you personally do not like him

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton was guarding Giannis that last play. But no credit there because it doesn’t fit your ongoing narrative.

I’ll give him credit for Giannis deciding to shoot a pull up with under 3 seconds left on the clock. Don’t know why Giannis made that decision considering he went the entire length of the court in 3.1 seconds to end the first half. Maybe as bad a FT shooter as he normally is he was afraid of going to the line with the game on the line?

 

[Proximo]

Yup. Frank has been nothing short of a revelation lately.

It’s crazy, he’s playing like Baynes did in that early stretch last year. He seems better defensively too somehow.

 

[Chaplin]

I wonder if it was just Brook Lopez’s big body falling on his calf. Hopefully nothing serious. He was stellar on Giannis in the 2nd half.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Another big showdown with the Sixers on Saturday. Excited to see how we match up there. Hopefully with another couple days maybe, just maybe Dario’s corpse is reanimated from the dead by then?

Also, that’s not my narrative. All season long I’ve credited Ayton with being a good defender.

I thought about that too, but he had been making them all game. I’m not sure I buy that.

 

[Chaplin]

I meant your narrative that he loses games for us.

yeah I thought they won when he caught it at the top of the key. All he had to do was drive and he would have a layup or free throws.

thats exactly what happens more often than not with Giannis at the end of games, which is why they’re not a great late game club.
