Final:

Nets 104 - Suns 82

 

[95pro]

Jeeze if the games out of hand get some of the other guys in

 

[BC867]

Ryan Anderson is another player like Tyson Chandler that is way past his expiration date.

I do not understand why Bender is not getting minutes over him.

In a short experiment, Holmes finished at Power Forward. Of course, we were 20 points down.

Tonight was our lowest scoring game of the season.

 

[sunsfan88]

With the new NBA rules, it's amazing to me how often the Suns have long spurts in which they cannot score considering how easily all other teams score.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Aaaaand a return to 20 point loss. Sigh.

Can’t win when Ayton/booker go 12/38. Ayton 6/17 is particularly embarrassing for a guy of his size, athleticism and skill.

Ayton was left alone outside, particularly early in the game, and was constantly popping from outside.

Like the Cardinals the coach has no clue how to use the talent he has on the team. Trying to think his system is better than players.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns are looking worse than last season. They had won 4 out of their first 10 games last season.

This season they have only won 2 of their first 10 games.

I think we'll see quite a bit of improvement over the season. Keep in mind we are throwing Ayton to the wolves right now and we're not giving Booker much support. And Booker missed the preseason and much of the early start too. He's nowhere up to speed. Ayton is raw, most fans don't seem to believe that because he can look so skilled at times but he is. He won't look like this in January IMO.

It was a layup drill for Brooklyn at times. That's the most discouraging/frustrating part. Well, that and the turnovers.

The Suns are a team floating aimlessly without a rudder. It's hard to see them improving much even with Ayton and Booker playing better.

We've seen this before. And Thursday Boston comes to town.

If you watch the tape it is due to Ariza playing poor perimeter D and try to just switch off the driving player and poor D on Anderson/Warren. Additional Booker is being beat backdoor all the time. Ayton is just not good as a help defender, he doesn't commit to either the dribbler or his man cutting to the rim.

 

[Sunburn]

Ayton sucks. Doesnt impose himself, puts up empty stats. So frustrating seeing a guy that size and talent level play like that. Reminds me of Boris Diaw. Can't believe we didnt take Doncic.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns with all those forwards and none of them are doing much.

Holmes was a bright spot but I view him more as a center.

 

[Yuma]

Looked like Booker and Ayton were tired tonight. Just watching body language, and both were off with their shots.

 

[slinslin]

20 turnovers per game, it is just not acceptable

Ryan Anderson providing absolutely nothing again..

Dallas has had a fairly easy schedule yet tonight they had to stop a 6 game losing streak. Fortunately they faced the dysfunctional Wizards (a team that might be even worse than the one that handled us tonight). And the last I saw, the Mavs were being outscored more when Doncic was on the court than when he was on the bench. I don't know if that stat still holds up but I suspect it does as his defense has been horrible from what I've watched.

Anyway, Doncic was always considered to be the more pro ready player. Ayton is big and raw and has only been playing the game for 6 or 7 years, get back to us in a few years when he finally puts it all together.

Are you a comedy account?

We’d be just as bad no matter who they picked but only time will tell if our decision was the right one. My final vote went to Ayton but I said all along I hope they did a deep phychological dive on him and didn’t make the pick on lottery night. Who really knows with this team. Who really trusts them to make another top-5 pick?

 

[82CardsGrad]

Ryan Anderson - 22 mins, 0 pts, 2 boards, 2 assists and 2 turnovers... Awesome... [emoji35]

I'm not so sure we'd be just as bad if we took Doncic. He has an alpha instinct. Ayton is obviously a beta. Puts up numbers, but doesnt have that killer instinct, just like we saw at UofA last year.

Doncic has not even be a positive on the court despite starting hot shooting and is a turnover machine.

We get it you don't like him. Your starting to sound like Mitch with his Peterson obsession.
