Suns @ Nets 12-23- 18

[Mainstreet]

Shots are coming up short for the Suns. It's not hard to figure out why.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Nets 91 - Suns 74

 

[SirStefan32]

Let's get Ayton in there with the deep bench. We aren't winning this, so let's get this man his 40 points tonight.

 

[Finito]

Meh.

Nobody ever wins on back to backs after a Tripple OT.

 

[Mainstreet]

If the Suns can beat the Magic in Orlando on Wednesday it would make the road trip.

 

[95pro]

Booker...for a guy with a lot of skill and some pg experience, he’s still crappy at passes to Ayton.

 

[Mainstreet]

Still no Okobo. I don't get it with the Suns being blown out.

 

[SirStefan32]

I just don't get it. You have a guy shooting 12/15, and not a single post-up situation in the fourth.

 

[Mainstreet]

I don't think the Suns know how to make an entry pass to Ayton down low or at least do it consistently.

 

[95pro]

Booker with the really high pass to ayton. Good catch and finish by ayton.

 

[95pro]

Stupid possession by booker. We were within 10 and he puts up an air ball.

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Nets 111 - Suns 103

The game was not as close as the score.

 

[ProdigalSun]

The only drill they should be doing in practices is entry passes into Ayton

 

[SirStefan32]

I don't think the Suns know how to make an entry pass to Ayton down low or at least do it consistently.

Then they need to practice. Have Holmes guard him, have Bridges guard the folks making the entry pass. Don't stop until they make the entry pass three hundred times. It's no different than practicing shooting. Ayton is too efficient not to get the ball in the post 10-15 times every game. This has been driving me crazy the entire season so far.

 

[SirStefan32]

Bridges did a really good job guarding point guards towards the end of the game. Ayton played really well too. He had at least three blocks, and some good steals and deflections a couple of times. Very happy with his effort tonight. He wasn't great defensively, but he definitely tried to play D unlike last night.

I hope they practice it but I have a feeling the problem will not be solved until the Suns add a point guard.

Who is the Brooklyn Brigade?

Ayton has kicked it into another level of aggression the last 3 games. He’s still not aggressive enough but it is encouraging.

That's been killing me this year too. He's one of the most efficient shooters in the league this year! As a rookie! Get him 20 shots a game ! Also Id like to see some more plays ran for bridges if he gets that shot down he's gonna be a top 3 and D player in the league

I think it's a generic name for Brooklyn fans. Kind of like Washington refers to their fans as "DC Family".

I'm not sure why Rankin even mentions it.

 

[Mainstreet]

So what is the name for Suns fans?

So what is the name for Suns fans?

The tortured brigade. The abused crew. Something along those lines, I suppose.

How about the Phoenix Frustrated? Although it is good to see that, after reaching the bottom, we have begun to have hope.

That would make us now the Phoenix Hopefuls.

Ayton 13-16 for 26 points and 18 boards. I guess he wasn’t THAT tired from last night.
