Hornets @ Suns Wednesday game thread 2-24-2021

[Cheesebeef]

Get a damn TO!

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton not helping even a little on picks.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Or let Book cook.

good. Finally TO. Gotta close quarter strong.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton keeps bringing the ball down low under the basket.

 

[Hoop Head]

Payne is getting torched on D. That's unusual. The Hornets seem to be going at him.

 

[Mainstreet]

Someone needs to stop Monk.

 

[Hoop Head]

Hornets are drilling 3's right now. Need to put a stop to that.

 

[Mainstreet]

Sweet pass by Booker to Crowder.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Monty lets runs go for too long.

 

[Chaplin]

Refs just aren’t letting them play. No rhythm at all.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 67 - Hornets 66

 

[Chaplin]

Yuck

 

[Mainstreet]

Monk with 22 points in the 1st half.

 

[Hoop Head]

Seemed like all of the 3's the Hornets were hitting were from the right corner of the 3pt line. They weren't easy 3's but they were all good from that spot.

 

[Hoop Head]

Monk with 22 points in the 1st half.

20 point 2nd quarter is what the Hornets announcers said. That's a career best for him.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Really poor end to the half.

Ayton making zero impact defensively.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton keeps bringing the ball down low under the basket.

He’s not smart

 

[Hoop Head]

Showing highlights around the league right now and just once I'd like to see Ayton pull the move KAT does often where he pumpfakes out from 3 and then drives hard to the basket for a one hand jam that he usually draws a foul on also.

If that trade was ever on the table, Ayton for KAT, it should have been made.

 

[Mainstreet]

I'd like for the Suns to bring in a power forward but a center would work. The Suns could use Saric at power forward when they need more strength inside.

 

[Mainstreet]

Spurs lost to OKC. Suns need to win this one.

I think having three fouls is making Booker tentative.

 

[Mainstreet]

And there it is, 4th personal on Booker.

 

[Hoop Head]

I think having three fouls is making Booker tentative.

I agree and when he's tentative on D he tries too hard on offense to make up for it, which doesn't work out well.

No respect. No other All-Star gets an offensive foul call like that

It seems to change how Booker wants to play on offense and defense.
