Celtics @ Suns Monday game thread 11-18-19

[Mainstreet]

Even undrafted Brad Wanamaker beating up on the Suns.

What are they now, 6-30 from 3?

Al McCoy is just bitching about the officials

 

[SirStefan32]

Eh, the officials have been bad, but they are not making the Suns shoot 20% from three.

 

[82CardsGrad]

Ayton and Rubio both not playing spells big time problems... It’s not like the team had a chance to prepare for Rubio being out as he was a last minute scratch.
They’re totally out of sync...

Go Al!

In reality the Celtics are bigger and stronger than the Suns. They are beating them up.

 

[SirStefan32]

Well if the law of averages kicks in, the Suns should drain about 10 threes in the last nine minutes.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Cam Johnson is worthless if his 3 isn't falling.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

I may not bitch about Rubio the rest of the year

Actually they are just bigger at the wings. Otherwise we have size advantages in baynes, saric, and kaminsky. But we haven’t been able to benefit from that bc kaminsky is the softest 7 footer I’ve ever seen, saric keeps missing layups, and baynes just isn’t athletic enough. And the Celtics have a ton of athletes. We aren’t an athletic team.

Yup

 

[RockinDaMike]

Worst game of the season. Please get healthy Rubio

Celtics have some big bodies though and are knocking the Suns off the ball like bowling pins. They are playing aggressive defense. Fifty-fifty balls are going their way.

The Suns passing has been . . . . . desperate.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

I want this team again with Rubio and Ayton. Our scrub bench is like -25

 

[Mainstreet]

If Rubio can't go the Suns might want to bring up a point guard.

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Celtics 99 - Suns 85

 

[BC867]

Here's a stat. Baynes led the Suns with 5 assists.

 

[SirStefan32]

Well, I suppose there is no shame is losing to the best team in the league, especially when you are missing two of your three best players. Shake it off and go beat the Kings by 30 tomorrow.

 

[Mainstreet]

Some final stats.

The point guard play was really bad. A G-League player can't be much worse.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Although he wasn’t the worst player in the court, book really sucked tonight. Played outta control offensively. Five turnovers. Poor defense. Lots of bitching to the refs. Didn’t lead imo. Step back for him tonight.

 

[Mainstreet]

I really like this tweet.

I have a weird feeling that Kemba may kill us tonight.

How about the whole Celtics team.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

How about the whole Celtics team.

The Celtics defense that is. We held them down plenty enough to win if we even had our average offense today.
