Grizzlies @ Suns Wednesday game thread 12-11-19

[Mainstreet]

Suns can't seem to have easy games.

 

[Mainstreet]

No one can hit a basket for the Suns. They trail 25-17.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Grizzlies 27 - Suns 19

 

[BC867]

The Grizzlies lead by 8 at the end of the 1st quarter.

The Suns are in their boring 3-point-shots-or-nothing
mode. Two out of twelve.

Yup, they're playing down to level of their opponent.

 

[Mainstreet]

My man Frank the Tank coming through big, early.

Bring back Frank!

After watching several Suns players try to take the ball to the hoop (unsuccessfully), I'm okay if we keep shooting from the outside.

Frank on fire early

Jerome just can't seem to buy a shot hope it improves

 

[BC867]

Frank The Tank has been taking charge on offense.

10 of our 26 points in his 10 minutes so far.

And we're down only by one.

I don't have the luxury of replay but Oubre should be able to score more at the rim more than he does. He has long arms and can elevate but he seems to get his shots blocked or he gets knocked off the ball.

Maybe his light weight is an issue?

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns retake lead on a dunk from Frank 30-29.

 

[Mainstreet]

Good to see Saric make that basket inside.

I think it's his small hands.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Wow amazing move by rubio than the assist and 3 by obure!

 

[BC867]

Oubre with a '3' and we're up by 3 halfway through
the 2nd quarter.

We're toying with the Grizzlies, as other teams have
done to us.

We better wind up with a "V" by opening it up by
the 6-minute mark in the 4th quarter.

 

[Mainstreet]

Needs stickum.

@AzStevenCal

Oubre does rebound well though or at least for his position.

 

[BC867]

So far the Suns are shooting 37% overall and 25% from 3-point range.

Subtract Kaminsky's 6 for 7 & 3 for 3 and . . . no, let's not subtract it.

 

[Mainstreet]

I like that scoop shot by Rubio. The shot reminds me of Nash.

KRay tried to make that point, but it took him about ten minutes with Annie's help.
Something about the pony tail.

 

[BC867]

The Suns are tied 51-51 at the half.

It's in the bag.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 51 - Grizzlies 51

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

If we start finding our shots in the 2nd half we should be good. Getting out shot pretty significantly so far and are tied.

 

[CRC83]

Tied at the half shooting 36% compared to their 44%. I’ll take it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Some halftime stats.
