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

[Proximo]

Book doesn’t look quite right.

 

[Dback Jon]

Down to an eight point lead

They’ve completely fallen apart mostly thanks to Nurkic

 

[Dback Jon]

Book!

 

[Mainstreet]

Book doesn’t look quite right.

He looks better after that last three.

 

[95pro]

Vincent has been a disappointment for LA. Probably a product of the Heat more than his talent.

 

[95pro]

Book doesn’t look quite right.

What??? He’s made some good shots.

 

[Dback Jon]

Book doesn’t look quite right.

Yup

 

[Dback Jon]

Another lazy pass leads to a Laker bucket

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 61 - Lakers 52

 

[Dback Jon]

Plumly gets fouled with no call

 

[95pro]

Plum should have just hit Book instead of to the corner.

 

[Yuma]

Beal was wide open weak side for that whole last time we had the ball.

 

[Mainstreet]

Some halftime stats.

[Proximo]

What??? He’s made some good shots.

It’s his movement, he is having trouble getting by guys, and a bit staying in front of dudes on D.

 

[GatorAZ]

What??? He’s made some good shots.

He can’t stay in front of Reaves which is a problem. We should be up by 20+.

 

[95pro]

It’s his movement, he has having trouble getting by guys, and a bit staying in front of dudes on D.

They are a big team. He’s not trying to get by and drive in every time.

I think they’re playing the drop on D a lot.

And maybe the last game with fouls has him playing less aggressive.

 

[Yuma]

Some halftime stats.

If we are going to shoot 66.7% from 3 point as a team, better get at LEAST another 20 up in the second half.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker needs to be aggressive and quit worrying about AD.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nurkic almost cost the Suns the big lead by himself.

 

[Yuma]

Nurkic almost second-handedly cost the Suns the big lead.

They scored on every one of his turn overs, I believe.

 

[Mainstreet]

They scored on every one of his turn overs, I believe.

It sure felt like it if not.

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Nurk is azz right now.

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Geezus…. Lebron, anyone ever hear of him??! May want to guard him…

 

[Dback Jon]

Welp. There goes the lead

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker misses a gimme.
