Jazz @ Suns Sunday game thread 2-27-2022

[Hoop Head]

McGee got away with travelling, too bad he couldn't score.

Glad the refs are letting everyone play.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Suns 32 - Jazz 32

 

[Proximo]

Playing much better than last game, but with Mitchell hot not sure it will be enough.

 

[Mainstreet]

Starters were cookin with gas on both ends, need a couple of our bench guys to step up.

I'm surprised the Suns played Hoilday so much with Booker. I'd prefer if he were more of a backup point guard.

 

[DJ Tabooh]

Crappy end to the quarter. Really bad transition defense. We need Cam Johnson to keep shooting well. This game is in Utah’s preferred pace. We have to keep being aggressive. Ayton is going to have to battle today against Gobert.

 

[Mainstreet]

Holiday is running point with Booker going to bench.

 

[Mainstreet]

Craig is not shooting well lately.

 

[Hoop Head]

Cam Johnson is going to make Mikal money, at a minimum. I hope we'll pay him.

 

[Phrazbit]

Confused how Ayton doesn't have a block on the stat sheet... he revenge swatted Gobert in the opening seconds.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Everyone but McGee looks intimidated when they put shots up in the lane.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Does anyone ever have any hope when Shamet shoots at this point?

 

[Raindog]

Does anyone ever have any hope when Shamet shoots at this point?

Nope... he really is starting to look like a lost cause. Which might not be such a disaster in and of itself... except for the sinkhole of money they put into him that would have been MUCH better spent elsewhere.

 

[DJ Tabooh]

C’mon boys. Keep fighting. I love Cam’s aggressiveness but Mikal has been quiet these last 2 games offensively.

 

[Mainstreet]

Does anyone ever have any hope when Shamet shoots at this point?

I'm probably the only one but his shooting form looks good.

 

[Hoop Head]

Nope... he really is starting to look like a lost cause. Which might not be such a disaster in and of itself... except for the sinkhole of money they put into him that would have been MUCH better spent elsewhere.

Upside is his deal is only guaranteed 2 years. So they'll be able to cut bait early. After next season he'll be sort of an expiring deal.

Think about this... that 4 year deal doesn’t even kick in until NEXT season. That was money that should have been earmarked for Cam.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton just getting owned. ZERO REBOUNDS.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Ayton is pissing me off right now, never boxing out...

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Our three point shooting has really gone south lately.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton is pissing me off right now, never boxing out...

He’s not an elite rebounder. He’s now trending towards amare rebounding.

 

[SoonerLou]

Bridges has to become aggressive.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Booker compounding bad offensive play with bad defensive play

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker has 2 fouls.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Good d cam

Oh... didn’t realize that.
