Suns @ Grizzlies Monday game thread 1-18-21

[BC867]

Suns again wearing their home whites on the road.

Could it be that the league is allowing that, forcing
the other teams to wear their road uni's at home,
because of our new dark Valley uniforms at home?

 

[Cheesebeef]

This is ugly so far

 

[BC867]

Both teams are rusty. 4-3 Grizzlies after the first four minutes.

 

[Cheesebeef]

THAT is what we need to see from Ayton.

 

[Chaplin]

This is ugly so far

So a typical Suns start to a game.

 

[Mainstreet]

lol, I literally forgot Paul is on the team. Booker passed to him and I went "oh yeah..."

To be fair, I borrowed a lot of today's happiness last night. Anyone have a great hangover cure?

Watch the Suns for awhile. You will forget about your hangover.

is the starting lineup this disjointed most games? I’ve been coming into games late the last couple weeks.

Pretty much. You know how bad they’ve been as a starting unit. Most of the holes they dig themselves into are in the first moments of the games.

This has been the norm for a while now. They don't even call them "home or road" anymore. The home team decides if they want to wear something with color or wear whites and the road team goes the other way.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton is active today. He needs to make layups though.

 

[BC867]

Aw, jeez. Following a Suns steal, Ayton blows the feed at the basket with a finger roll.

Frank The Tank in at Center and hits two 3's. Suns up 18-8. That's the key. Don't play catchup.

 

[Mainstreet]

Frank for 3!

And again...

To be fair, they haven't played in a week and I am pretty sure they were not allowed to practice together during that time either.

 

[Finito]

Changing the line up to get Ayton going.

I hope Ayton just goes on a monster run the next few games...so we can trade him for someone good

The league hasn't adhered to home=white road=color jerseys in well over a decade. Its all merchandise and marketing now. Your way of thinking is outdated.

 

[BC867]

Frank with a block.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Second unit immediately looks like actual basketball.

 

[Mainstreet]

I wish Carter had made that 3. It was right there.

 

[Cheesebeef]

I just don’t get WTF is wrong with Booker.

turns the ball over and then gets a T. Come on dude. Get your ish together.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Nice to see Suns basketball again

 

[Finito]

Bad start for Booker

 

[Cheesebeef]

I mean WTF BOOKER?!

 

[Chris_Sanders]

He's pushing to get going

 

[Cheesebeef]

Booker looks like the worst player on the court.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker making some mistakes.
