Pistons @ Suns 3-21-19

[Chaplin]

I consider Melton and Okobo as 3rd and 4th options heading into next season... not necessarily in that order.

Why? We don't need a 3rd option point guard, not with Devin Booker and even Josh Jackson on the team. Injuries would be the only reason to have a 3rd point guard, and certainly Okobo could fit that mold.

In every game, you pick out an opposing backup point guard and state the Suns should pick him up.

I thought we were trying to relieve Booker of point guard duties.

I always look at opposing personnel. Hope the Suns FO does as well.

 

[Mainstreet]

Drummond now with four personal fouls.

 

[Finito]

Gotta give that up Josh had Ayton for the layup

 

[SirStefan32]

Pistons just can't miss from long range.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

What did book get T for?

 

[Mainstreet]

Jackson is on the floor injured.

 

[SirStefan32]

Jackson is hurt. It looks bad.

 

[SirStefan32]

What did book get T for?

He wanted a foul. Every time he misses, throws it away, gets it blocked, he screams about how he was fouled.

Thx

What happened to JJ?

 

[Mainstreet]

Jackson is hurt. It looks bad.

He is being helped to the locker room. Hope it is not serious.

 

[Mainstreet]

What happened to JJ?

He went down try to block Thon Maker's shot. Hurt his leg/ankle in some manner.

Huh? We don't want Booker to be a starting point guard, but you can't deny he's relatively good at playing the position, or at least, being a playmaker. Why would you take that completely away? That's asinine.

Saying Ish Smith would be a good signing has nothing whatsoever to do with getting Booker out of the position.

 

[Mainstreet]

Jackson reportedly suffered a right sprained ankle.

 

[Hoop Head]

JJ's ankle is apparently just sprained. He won't return tonight though. Glad it's not more serious.

 

[Finito]

Ayton in foul trouble he was rolling

 

[Finito]

Jackson probably done for the year now

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Pistons 87 - Suns 80

 

[Hoop Head]

What happened to JJ?

Don't know if you wanted to see it or not, found this on Twitter. Looks a lot more serious than it was. It was reported as just a sprain.

[Mainstreet]

Ish with a nice assist to Drummond.

 

[Hoop Head]

Bender passed it right to the Pistons. WTF? He should have shot it but instead he lobbed it right to them for an easy fast break. He was doing ok, for being Bender, and then he reminds you why he's been buried on the bench most of the season. He's our tank insurance.

 

[slinslin]

Daniels, bender, holmes, crawford, melton and jackson have all been shockingly bad this game

 

[Mainstreet]

Pistons are pulling away leading 103-86.

 

[Sunburn]

Had sprains like that before. They HURT. And take awhile to recover from. He's done for the season. Out of our plethora of wings, we're down to one.
