They are really trying to give it to Ayton now—why in God’s name don’t they do that at the beginning of the game?

Yeah, I don't get it either. Igor keeps saying that his job is to adjust his system to the players he has. It's time to adjust those hand-offs around the three-point line to posting Ayton up to start with.

Halftime:

Pelicans 61 - Suns 53

Warren has been a huge plus with 19 points.

Despite the score it just feels like we're being destroyed out there.

Ayton got looks early in the game against Davis but he seemed reluctant to have his shot challenged. He seems to have relaxed.

OMG Ariza is bad. I've never seen a veteran with such a good reputation play with such indifference.

It seems older players come to the Suns to retire.

The Suns are in coast mode allowing easy drives to the basket.

Players being timid and overthinking everything will do that. The effort has been picking up and the games have been far more competitive.

Yeah, I get the sense that too many players on the Suns know that as a team, we aren't as good as our opponents.

Ayton is giving the effort. It's nice to see his confidence soaring.

Put the scrubs in with Ayton in the fourth. I guarantee you if he gets the ball on every possession, the Suns will win the quarter, at least.
