Hornets @ Suns Sunday game thread 12-19-2021

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Payne 1 point away from making it 9 players in double figures.

And there it is.

 

[Chaplin]

EJ makes games like this HIGHLY entertaining.

 

[Mainstreet]

Payton with 5 turnovers. Someone should help boost his confidence.

 

[DJ Tabooh]

He had his head down after turnover.

He’s tough to watch man. He’s been in the league how long and doesn’t have a command of a team on the floor…if you can’t shoot and now your defense is regressing, then at least let us get a good shot for someone else and then look for yours. Ugh rant over lol

 

[Vacard]

Scoreboard makes me think the Suns are mad! And ready for GS

He is having a bad game. It happens. The Suns will need him.

 

[FB94]

I know it’s a blowout, but Payton does nothing for this team

 

[Phrazbit]

Earliest we’ve left a game by far. What a rout, this team’s ball movement is unreal.

 

[Mainstreet]

Payne with slick pass to Stix.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

He is having a bad game. It happens. The Suns will need him.

He has been bad in most games he has played in this year. Maybe not THIS bad, but bad nonetheless.

 

[Phrazbit]

Virtually every game is a bad game for him. He is on one of the best teams in the league and he has some of the worst splits. It is hard to imagine we could do worse.

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Suns 137 - Hornets 106

 

[Vacard]

Best center tandem in the league and the best tandem in suns history.

Ahh long gone are the days of finding a post up 4 and signing washed up centers to battle Shaq like Chris Dudley, Luc Longly, Big Jake AKA Big Joke, Bo Outlaw, Big O, and oh i can’t forget a washed up Shaq in a Suns uniform lmao.

 

[95pro]

These are the kind of minutes Brix, Stainright and Elfrid should be playing.

Looked like a funny bone on cp3, let’s hope it’s nothing lingering.

Booker was left in too long imo. Would like to see less minutes in a game like this.

Oubre is bad, still.

McGee had fun.

Please be around and acknowledge when Payton plays well and he will.

He just had a really bad game tonight.

 

[Mainstreet]

Some final stats.

[Mainstreet]

The Suns forwards all had good games: Crowder (14), Bridges (16) and Johnson (12).

Jalen Smith even had 5 points.

 

[Phrazbit]

Please be around and acknowledge when Payton plays well and he will.

He just had a really bad game tonight.

I’m always around. Payton is just a bad player, it is what it is. If we ever “need” him then we are in big trouble.

 

[Mainstreet]

I had to laugh, Chris Paul looked insulted when the Hornets left him open on a play.

 

[Finito]

Ayton, Paul and Booker all playing about 25 minutes tonight.

We’re starting to hold leads now

 

[Cheesebeef]

Can we unban @1Sun for like two days? I really would love to hear him pretzel himself into how this team isn’t going to make the playoffs and Booker will ask for a trade by Feb.

It would get old well before the end of the 2nd day...

Good. I have never seen you acknowledge when Payton makes a good play and he has.

I'm not talking about tonight.

What reasoning do you have that you think Book was in too long? He wasn't winded and played pretty well for his first time back. I thought his minutes were fine.

 

[Chaplin]

Payne or Payton? If you guys aren't talking about the same player, then... that's funny.
