Bulls @ Suns Friday game thread 3-18-2022

I am sure it is about CP3 becoming a team VP after his retirement.

Something like this. The Suns need to keep Chris Paul in the Suns organization after he retires.

The Suns lost out on Steve Nash.

Jae Crowder gives us an informal injury update on Cam Johnson.

I suspect we play tough but drop this one.

I don't see why. Bulls are 3-7 in there last 10, and have an awful record against winning teams.

I expect Suns to win.

I suspect we play tough but drop this one.

This is gonna be an interesting matchup. We’ve lost our last 2 Friday games @ home. However, the Bulls aren’t a great rebounding team. If we can take care of the ball and not let BOTH LaVine and DeRozan get 30 I think we have enough firepower to overcome. Book loves these matchups and him vs. Zach is gonna be fun. I’m taking the Suns -5.5 at home. Idk why, just got a feeling

 

[Mainstreet]

Jae Crowder is OUT.

Torrey Craig will again start tonight.

Watching pregame question game.

Stephen A. Smith did say Mikal Bridges should be the Defensive Player of the Year.

 

[Mainstreet]

Hawks beat the second place Grizzlies tonight.

 

[Chaplin]

Hawks beat the second place Grizzlies tonight.

Does that mean our magic number is now 4? 3 if we win? Or is there more dependent on Golden St.?

 

[Mainstreet]

Getting ready for tip-off.

This is my understanding.

Stan Van Grundy says Payne isn’t playing just as the video shows Cam Payne.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton with the stuff to get the Suns on the scoreboard.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker is on target.

 

[Mainstreet]

Craig is playing well again.

 

[Phrazbit]

I’m at the game… why is Payton in… WHY?!?! Where is Holiday?!

 

[Chaplin]

Why is Elfrid Payton in??

 

[Mainstreet]

Timeout with Suns leading 24-21.

 

[Mainstreet]

This is all I see. I'm not seeing any reason for the change in the substitution.

[Mainstreet]

Maybe Payton getting a final look before Lundberg arrives.

 

[Zobaczcie suki]

Craig can't miss

 

[Mainstreet]

That didn't look like an offensive foul on Shamet.

 

[Chaplin]

Flop city

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Suns 30 - Bulls 27

Book is a sniper. The guy can make any shot he wants.
