Shamet is in everyone's heads, lol.

Shamet is in everyone's heads, lol.

Not as much as he’s in Monty’s.

 

[AzStevenCal]

My hope is that vintage CP3 will shine for about 5 minutes tonight when we need him the most.

He's done it before, all we have to do is keep it close and give him that chance to shine late.

They are more worried about Book and KD so his mid range shots will be there.

Unfortunately, Shamet is a tease. He looks to be similar to a Jeff Hornacek type player but he never got there.

 

[Mainstreet]

Josh Okogie will remain a starter for the Suns.

 

[Chaplin]

Okogie let Murray by him countless times in game 1. Let’s see if he changes things up.

 

[Mainstreet]

If Suns the switch on defense, Okogie guarding Murray doesn't always work out that way.

I like Craig as a starter.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Need to body some fools tonight. Give them nothing but take from them everything 300 type ish. As far as Ayton goes everybody and their grandma got their eyes on him. I hope he can rebound both literally and from the game two nights ago. Either way we need this win

 

[Big Al]

The problem with Shamet isn't that there is necessarily any far superior answer on the bench. The problem is that the stubborn ass coach won't even try to find out if he can get a better result with anyone else... or any other adjustments for that matter.

Thank you Raindog. Exactly, as you can't keep doing failure after failure & expect positive results. It's the coach's move to try Somebody else who might see and seize that chance if given the opportunity for the minutes. Shamet has shown the Suns that he's not the one capable of doing it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Tip-off.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Shamet is a problem coming off the bench but Monty will solve it for us by starting Landry next game.

 

[Mainstreet]

Paul was fouled???

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Wow, that first play, almost a turn over. Good recovery though.

 

[Finito]

Oh hell here we go

 

[Mainstreet]

I think that blocked ball was above the rim.

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Refs missed a foul on Ayton there, all hand.

 

[Finito]

Ayton give and Ayton takes

 

[Vacard]

Why Ayton

 

[Mainstreet]

So Murray is going to be allowed to foul.

 

[Finito]

Joker is just ridiculous

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Oh Ayton, wow, haha, just juked out of his shoes by Jocik.

 

[Mainstreet]

I like what Ayton is doing early.

 

[AzCardsfan76]

So Murray is going to be allowed to foul.

Apparently, refs have missed 3 clear fouls.

 

[Finito]

Ayton super active
