Suns @ Nets Monday game thread 2-3-20

That charge on book was a bad call. Defender didn’t even have feet set.

Oubre doing a great job keeping us in it

Suns need to get Ayton going. Booker being out hurts his scoring because he seems to get the ball to Ayton in the right places.

Dude just needs to get in the paint...it's so simple. He treats the paint like the plague...so frustrating sometimes.

Halftime:

Nets 55 - Suns 52

Jesus Ayton....

 

[Phrazbit]

The Suns need to bring in a former ref, head of officiating or something, to talk to the players. Help them learn how to communicate with refs. I think part of the reason we get the short end on most 50/50 calls is that our players come off as whining and generally ignorant as to why they even get called for things.

We also really need to stop with the frustration fouls. Seems like almost anytime we have a bad call against us we compound it by committing a stupid foul immediately after.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I have to laugh. I’ve never been so frustrated with a dude with 15/10 at half as I am watching Ayton.

This is what we all want yet the Suns like to run their offense with him out high. No excuse. Just saying.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Now that said, if Ayton ends up with anything less than 24/16 it’s a disappointment.

A look some halftime stats.

Ayton leads the Suns in assists with 3.

Ayton guarding the rim.

This game further demonstrates how Booker has completely checked out since the All Star snub.

Bring Russell or KAT here, or consider Booker gone.

 

[Mainstreet]

Personal fouls seem to have an impact on Booker's (3) game. Same with Ayton (3) and Rubio (4).

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker seems to have a chemistry with Ayton that Rubio doesn't.

We need to lock Ayton in a room and have him watch this clip on a loop.

This game further demonstrates how Booker has completely checked out since the All Star snub.

Bring Russell or KAT here, or consider Booker gone.

In the two games after the snub he has had 27 pts and 32 pts... if he has checked out then I wish more of the Suns would check out... we would be unstoppable.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker gets no respect. Clearly fouled twice. No call.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Nets 90 - Suns 73

In the two games after the snub he has had 27 pts and 32 pts... if he has checked out then I wish more of the Suns would check out... we would be unstoppable.

Look at the shooting efficiency, turnovers and especially defense, and then get back to me.

 

[Mainstreet]

I understand Booker being frustrated with the fouls tonight.

The offensive foul called on him in the first and he was fouled twice on recent play and no whistle.

 

[Phrazbit]

Look at the shooting efficiency, turnovers and especially defense, and then get back to me.

He had 32 points on 15 shots last game, 27 on 18 the game before, that is unworldy efficient. Your struggles with numbers continue to amuse.

 

[JerkFace]

Ummm, maybe you should look at those numbers and get back to me. Nothing out of the ordinary.

 

[JerkFace]

James needs to do something before the deadline to shake things up. No chance for the playoffs, but he needs to keep the season from completely spiraling out of control (which it is starting to do).
