Clippers @ Suns 1-4-19

[SirStefan32]

I don't even know what they are trying to do out there.

 

[Mainstreet]

Shocking just how horrendous this team is at shooting... well, they’re horrendous at just about everything, but man they are extraordinarily BAD at shooting!

Unless the Suns get fast breaks their offense doesn't provide for easy shots.

Players need to be set up for shots in the flow of the offense. Unfortunately it's not happening.

 

[SirStefan32]

Come on, Suns, keep it under 30!

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Clippers 68 - Suns 44

What an ugly half of Suns basketball.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Gortat 8 & 7
Ayton 2 & 3

FAIL

 

[Folster]

I think I may be done with this team for a while.

 

[Finito]

I honestly thought they had turned the corner and here we are.

Chambers yelling ACT LIKE YOU CARE

 

[Mainstreet]

Some stats.

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I thought we had as well.

10 rebounds at half. 10!!!!

Are you kidding me?

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton:
1 shot
3 rebounds
0 free throws
0 blocks
0 fouls
Big Puss

I hear a lot of names mentioned, am I the only one tired of Warren and his disappearing acts. He just doesn't do enough for this team if he's not holding up his end offensively and that big deficit started with him playing like crap. Sure, he got better but he helped dig a big hole. And you can tell how unengaged he is just by his body language unless that's my frustration causing me to see things.

I still think Igor is a good coach, but I think this team needs a Scott Skiles or Jeff VanGundy.

I don't know how anyone can say Igor is a good coach. Jury's out? Okay... I'm leaning more and more against that, but I can understand saying he's grading at an Incomplete at this point.

But GOOD? No. There is literally no semblance of an offense except a weave that does absolutely nothing and this team plays the worst defense I've ever seen.

Again, I'm not saying he's terrible or should be fired at this point. i just don't know what in the world he's done to make anyone think he's good at this point.

 

[SirStefan32]

What happened to Warren and Ayton?

The rest of the team is tired of watching booker dribble the clock down, or running into a double team thinking they don’t want the ball from him, or him throwing a crappy pass. Guys can blame coach for the game plan but booker needs to be quicker on the picks set for him and move the ball.

This is why we are now just watching shots go up and not bothering to rebound. The guys are disengaged from gameplay.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton is big freaking p****y. There I said it.

How long do we have to wait for his balls to drop?

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns owe Igor a fair opportunity. Let's give him a point guard before putting all the blame on him.

"My expectations for the point guard position are very high when it comes to following game plan, running the team,” he said. “I also encourage guys to play with a freedom. Freedom that we give them requires some responsibilities.”

"Almost be invisible," Kokoskov said. "I think that's maybe a good description for a point guard position. Be a glue guy. Makes everybody else better. You don't have to necessarily be a focal point on the court, but you're a glue guy when it comes to the offense and defense."

The point guard is the "glue guy" on offense and defense.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Melton has more balls in the paint than Ayton.

 

[SirStefan32]

Booker misses a dunk, Warren and Melton each miss a layup.

 

[95pro]

If booker had elite athleticism he’d finish that dunk. We don’t have anyone that can finish those runouts.

As does my grandma.

Look... I get giving Igor a pass for the most part on O. He's stuck with crap and dihearrea at PG. But Igor also owes the fans a product that isn't a complete and utter joke on D.

He doesn't deserve "all the blame". But when the team comes out completely unprepared every single night for the 3/4s of the season and plays worse D than Phoenix Day School for The Deaf And Blind would, he deserves some criticism.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton looks like he doesn’t want to be out there.

JJ can

Warren/Ayton pick and roll looks better than Booker/Ayton combo.
