Suns @ Lakers Friday game thread, October 25th, 2024

I'm not sure why the Suns are challenging this call. Durant inadvertently hit him.

 

[Proximo]

Just checked the stats. The Lakers have shot 22 f.t. to our 2. Are they not fouling, or are the refs not calling anything against them?

We are not shooting much from the paint, I don’t think the officiating has been bad.

 

[Yuma]

KD channeling his inner Draymond Green.

I wish he would have hit Nurkic earlier.....

 

[Phrazbit]

Did Bud watch the Suns in the 4th quarter last year? I have a hard time believing he'd go to same sort of system. No change. KD iso doesn't work.

I don't think KD plays system basketball, especially not when it is the 4th quarter.

"Hoopers gotta hoop" or some such nonsense.

I can’t do this.. I swear Arizona teams and people with heart conditions don’t mix..

Lakers getting Lakers calls. It's nothing that shouldn't have been anticipated. They're a physical team and force contact, we don't.

 

[Proximo]

Notice we are back to our 4th quarter Iso ball.

This just isn’t the way to play, however the lakers aren’t being physical with KD so he has been somewhat successful.

Desperation.

 

[Yuma]

Why no Book? Is he hurt?

 

[Mainstreet]

Good defense by Dunn on Lebron.

Did Durant ask for the challenge? I didn't see anything like that. If he did and Bud acquiesced then we're in trouble. I think Bud just had a bad angle though so I won't blame anyone else.

He's there

Two games in and this team is maddening. 32 point swing tonight? What was last nights? 24 point swing? Some swing is expected, but this is ridiculous.

 

[95pro]

Bron travels lol. No call of course

 

[GatorAZ]

Here comes AD lovely.

 

[Mainstreet]

Let Tyus shoot the ball.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Booker is back to being a bad defender

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

34 point swing

Last year’s team did this a ton too.

In the literal immortal words of the Knight from the end of Last Crusade, looks like I “choose… wisely” to stop watching at the half.

 

[Yuma]

Dagger.....

 

[FB94]

Same as it ever was. Wake me up when this team grows a sac.

 

[Proximo]

God I hate losing to the Lakers twice as much as any other team.

They suck…

 

[GatorAZ]

Total no show from Book. Tomorrow could get ugly.

Being lazy. They think they don’t have to play hard the whole game.
