Oct 1st Suns vs Kings @7pm

[SirStefan32]

Bridges has been invisible.

 

[Mainstreet]

Shaq only has 5 PFs.

 

[SirStefan32]

Another JJ to Ayton play!

 

[Mainstreet]

Bridges has been invisible.

I hope McDonough knows something I don't know.

 

[1Sun]

Shaq only has 5 PFs.

I guess it was just wishful thinking that he had fouled out. (Notice the big run the Suns had the moment we was removed from the game...)

 

[SirStefan32]

Shaq only has 5 PFs.

So there is a chance 1Sun can see him play some more!

 

[1Sun]

I hope McDonough knows something I don't know.

Again, he needs a facilitating point guard in order to be effective. We don't have one of those.

 

[Superbone]

I hope McDonough knows something I don't know.

That it's only the first preseason game?

 

[Yuma]

JJ at PG!

 

[Mainstreet]

That it's only the first preseason game?

Of course, it's his first game tonight.

I evaluate players quickly.

 

[Raindog]

I know this obviously isn't the full complement the Suns will be running out there with come the regular season, what with Booker out. But one conclusion I can already make is that Harrison and Anderson need to be nowhere near the rotation, let alone either being a starter.

 

[Yuma]

No trades. JJ at PG and Okobo all this season!

 

[SweetD]

JJ at PG!

Ala Penny Hardaway..I like the idea

 

[Raindog]

I don't see why Okobo shouldn't get a real shot at the starting PG spot any less than anyone else we have - assuming some other move isn't made to improve there.

 

[SirStefan32]

Alright, Bender is coming in!

 

[1Sun]

I guarantee you that with a real NBA level point guard, Ayton would not be getting outplayed by Willie Cauley Stein. In my opinion, point guard play will be the difference between Ayton being a combination of David Robinson and Hakeem Olajuwon and Ayton being a combination of Demarcus Cousins and Andrew Bynum.

 

[slinslin]

There are no words to describe how bad Bender is.

He is honestly the worst NBA player I have ever seen getting minutes.

 

[Mainstreet]

Alright, Bender is coming in!

I am guessing Canaan is going to start.

 

[SunsTzu]

I'm really surprised at how much better Ayton's interior defense has been compared to summer league.

 

[Yuma]

I gotta say Harrison at least looks good in a Suns uniform.

 

[BC867]

'Good to see the Suns make it back to a close game here in the 4th.

For an initial game, it seems there have been no overwhelming surprises.

Ayton is off to a good start, even with a skeleton backcourt so far. 'Not a surprise.

 

[Yuma]

I'm really surprised at how much better Ayton's interior defense has been compared to summer league.

No foul trouble. Lets see if he keeps that up.

 

[Mainstreet]

I am guessing Canaan is going to start.

I'd like to have an update on his status.

Good, but still getting outplayed by Cauley Stein and zoning out from time to time. This team needs a point guard in the worst way, and the more the team plays like this, the worse McDonough's trade leverage will get. He really needed to pull the trigger before preseason started. And he needs to pull it ASAP before it gets even worse.
