Pelicans @ Suns Thursday game thread 11-21-19

Johnson and a pick should be traded for some size

 

[BC867]

Bridges is getting more expendable every game , he really needs to start hitting shots

If he can't get it together with all of the starters out, he'll never do it.

A defensive specialist is different from a defense-only player.

Some 1st quarter stats.

Great to see Jevon Carter hitting some shots.

 

[Mainstreet]

Carter goes out with 7 points.

 

[1Sun]

It's obvious that a healthy Baynes is key to our defense, particularly given how weak defensively Saric and Kaminsky are.

 

[Mainstreet]

Oubre puts the Suns up by 1 with free throws.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns starting to play some good defense. It's nice to see.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 66 - Pelicans 59

Oubre!!

 

[Matt L]

Clawed their way back in this game!

I'm still not sure what Johnson's strengths are. I cant believe his contract

I think he can still be a decent energy guy off the bench, if he plays within himself. When he tries to do too much, as tends to be the case when he starts, or when he plays the point, he is a hot mess.

Shaq giving Oubre some kudos at halftime.

 

[Proximo]

What’s with chuck saying the suns can’t make the playoffs.

Going to be happy proving him wrong.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Big half by oubre.

looks like in the second quarter they started playing with the familiar effort on defense that got them wins early in the season.

Kaminsky is embarrassing around the rim sometimes.

Bridges just doesn’t have much offensive talent. Watching him you see little speed and zero lift. He’s just a real pedestrian athlete offensively.

saric makes some phenomenal passes.

nice to see cam dropping treys. Hope that keeps up second half.

booker seems frustrated this game. And man does he make some just awful lazy turnovers. I feel like he’s getting worse in thy area this season. Not in overall turnovers, but in really poor turnovers.

I don’t believe any of them have watched much of the suns this season so they don’t fully recognize the full extent of the changes.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ugh kaminsky

 

[Matt L]

Jeez

 

[Matt L]

They go on. 10-2 and we don't call timeout or anything?

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Holy crap do we look terrible on both ends right now.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Starting to annoy the poo out of me...

He just lets these runs drag on way too long.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns imploding to start second half.

 

[Matt L]

So many missed layups

 

[Mainstreet]

This is one of those spells where the Suns can't hit shots and start watching.
