Melton should not shoot unless there’s one second left on the clock.

Igors offense has gone through ayton before many times but he kept passing it out. This the 1st time he has been going aggressively like coaches have told him to

Or the first time he is doing what he needs to do despite the wrong message the coaches are communicating...

I don't like the Suns playing Ayton outside. It's almost like they forgot about him.

I know Booker has the team record but the Suns have of had 3 NBA quality centers.

And that is why it was a no-brainer picking Ayton over Doncic. You don't get many opportunities to draft a 7-footer with his skills.

Too late on the timeout again

How do the nuggets get a wide open corner 3 after just saving the ball from out of bounds..

Should have called timeout after Ayton didnt touch the ball in the first 2 minutes of the quarter..

What in the hell are you going on about? It is known that the coaches tell him to be aggressive. For whatever reason ayton goes through stretches where he is passive. Most times it is on the player, not the coaching staff.

Igor can't shoot it for him

True to form, the Suns with yet another horrible start after halftime.

Igor Kokoskov just isn't intelligent and proactive enough to be an NBA head coach. He is too slow to everything.

Murray’s gonna score 50. His legs don’t look tired and he played last night in Denver.

Have you actually heard Igor try to speak? He can't communicate anything effectively enough for it to get through.

And now you're making borderline racist comments. You're walking a very fine line

Not racist. The guy stumbles over every statement he makes. Try listening to him being interviewed. This isn't about race. It's about him and his poor communication skills.

Frankly, from where I stand it would be racist NOT to call out his communication deficiencies just because he is European...

The language criticism is about prejudice.

The play speaks for itself, in my opinion. Ayton has never been one to defy coaches.

There are articles mentioning the coaches telling him to be aggressive. He doesn't always do that because he misreads the situation.

Hes still learning the game. Some of it is just a learning process

Solid quarter but why did Ayton only get 3 touches?

all the plays where ayton is getting the ball on top of the key and passes it off are clearly by design
