Suns @ Mavericks Sunday Playoff game thread, R2, 5-8-2022 - Game 4

[Mainstreet]

Nearly time for tip-off.

 

[nashman]

Oooh love the orange unis

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker opens with a 3P!

 

[Cheesebeef]

Those Orange Uni’s bring back bad Finals memories.

Jesus Ayton. FINISH THAT.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Ayton is back to playing soft

 

[Phrazbit]

Powell has ran straight through Bridges on all 3 plays so far. He is basically tackling him.

 

[dscher]

You guys are crazy for calling out coach cause he hasn't played Holiday. I get the argument and I like Holiday, but this team can beat the mavs without playing him. If we have to rely on him to be a difference maker, we have other problems.

What does crazy have to do with it when you have Payne being as anemic as he's been? I don't think it's rocket science here. You try to give Holliday some run and if he doesn't pan out go back to your ice cold Payne... He's not a very fluid coach when the pressure is on IMO. He's quite rigid. But you're right... we'll have to have CP more than likely bail out any lack in decision making.

 

[Mainstreet]

There we go Deandre.

 

[Phrazbit]

Luka is insufferable.

 

[dscher]

Ayton is back to playing soft

Was just gonna post that.. which one will we get today? He's gotta nut up. It's times for no BS.

 

[Mainstreet]

Crowder took Luka down hard and no call.

 

[Mainstreet]

Luka wasn't set.

 

[Dback Jon]

That should have been on Luka

yes the other problem is Payne is stinking it up!

 

[Dback Jon]

Luka is insufferable.

He is.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Looks just like Game 3 so far.

 

[NoelPHX]

Im done with cry baby Donic. Put our least used player in and level the idiot.

 

[Dback Jon]

Yup. Settle down Suns

 

[Finito]

Even if we win this series GS is gonna run us off the floor.

 

[dscher]

If we're going to be a smart playoff team...you stop focusing on all their crap and go about your business. Whining is for babies boys.

 

[Mainstreet]

That should have been on Luka

It wasn't even close either.

 

[Phrazbit]

Keep an eye on Powell when the Mavs have the ball, he is setting "screens" for Bridges where he basically tries to run him over.

 

[Covert Rain]

Suns lacking composure since Game 3. Instead of focusing on the damn calls just play basketball.

 

[DJ Tabooh]

No one’s showing up today besides Booker. Embarrassing. Dallas is getting all the 50-50 balls. Suns aren’t executing. Everything seems difficult. Dallas isn’t afraid of us. We need CP3 to play like CP3. Ayton needs to stop going up soft and dunk the ball. C’mon boys WAKE UP

 

[Joe Mama]

If they allow Doncic she just ran his way through defenders there's really no way to stop him. The Phoenix Suns need to do what he just did against Devon Booker. FLOP!
