This series is going to be a nonstop nail biter.

The Suns offense was fine. It's the defense they need to tighten up.

Unfortunately, a lot of those situations he creates for himself by dawdling with the ball instead of going straight up.

Again, I have to wonder what Mark Bryant is coaching him to do. Or if it just isn't being retained at game time.

I think ayton underestimates how strong he is.

that’s also with a running start facing the basket as opposed to catching under the backboard and having to go up at a bad angle.

stuff like that has to be taken into consideration

Lol this isn't Dario saric. Ayton had a 44 inch vertical coming out of college. Coupled with his height, thats plenty to get him there without a running start or even a particularly good angle. I rarely see him show this ability off though.

Was not expecting Campazo to out play Paul.

they are switching smalls onto Joker way to much.

I am mainly just disappointed in our defense.

We can’t let the others beat us.

booker was fine, doubling him was effective, we missed to many open 3’s.

Jae Crowder has more attempts than him. Booker is tied with Mikal in fga. That's not fine. We need him to be more aggressive.

I got a bad feeling about this game. We just don’t seem to be clicking at all.
