Season Opener: Nuggets @ Suns Wednesday game thread 10-20-2021

This is like the 1st half before the bench came into the game.

Yup.

 

[Dback Jon]

This is ugly

 

[Cheesebeef]

Booker looks awful.

 

[Finito]

Booker not looking so good

 

[DJ Tabooh]

Booker not looking so good

He’s only taken 8 shots. He’s getting everyone involved. Bridges and Ayton are leading the team in shot attempts. We’re ok

 

[Hoop Head]

Man... I can’t really afford the Suns ticket right now but watching this first game, I don’t know if I can afford not to, especially since who knows what happens after this season.

I feel like I gotta soak up every bit of the Suns when I can, while I can!

Ya know that almost seems like a semi decent business strategy. Especially when we're coming off the pandemic, or kind of. There's a real sort of "enjoy it while it lasts" feeling to this season.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns need shooting and defense.

 

[Phrazbit]

Short arming every shot, slow in transition… I think they feel asleep at the half.

Wake up Suns!

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns let Denver build the lead to 9 points: 74-65.

 

[DJ Tabooh]

What are we doing?!?!?!? Down 9. Denver is getting whatever they want. This is like game 5 in the Finals. Ironically, the last home game. C’mon boys WAKE UP

Ayton must’ve been pretty good in the first quarter bc he’s been fairly awful since I got to start watching in the 2nd quarter. Anything but “playing with force.” Mainly just drifting and going up soft.

Bridges and cam Johnson look pretty bad too.

Paul seems to be the only one really locked in.

 

[Cheesebeef]

I still think Bridges is the most overrated player on this board.

 

[Mainstreet]

Cam Payne sighting on drive to basket.

 

[Mainstreet]

Payne feeling it hits a three.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

McGee should never try to dribble. That 3 is on him.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Ehhhh im not seein ayton as a max type player smart on suns to wait

 

[Finito]

That’s McGee just secure the rebound you don’t need to try and lead the break

 

[Dback Jon]

CamPayne!

 

[Mainstreet]

Great to see Cam Payne get it rolling.

 

[Hoop Head]

Garbanzo... Oh I haven't missed him

 

[Finito]

Cam Payne on a mission

 

[Mainstreet]

Green kicking out with leg on that shot. I didn't think that was allowed this season.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Lol... I’ve been so wrong about sports lately.

 

[Mainstreet]

Much needed three by Cam Johnson.

 

[Mainstreet]

Shamet for three!
