How bad could we use Tyrese Haliburton right now?
Or Jalen Smith?

Oh Monty. Don’t let ASFN know about thisMonty says the Pelicans outplayed the Suns but the free throw disparity is hard to swallow.

Monty - the experts here say that is because we attack softly.From Arizona Sports:
“Coaches shouldn’t have to come up to the microphone and feel like they’re going to get their heads cut off for speaking the truth,” the Suns coach said postgame. “It was 17-to-2 (free throw difference) in the first half. And then they end up with 42.
“That’s hard to do in a game like that,” Williams said. “And it’s not like we don’t attack the basket.”

Yeah I actually saw that happen live
I have to admit, it's weird that the officials didn't call that.

What is Haliburton going to the foul line? NoHow bad could we use Tyrese Haliburton right now?
FTFY
Yup. Eddie has always seen that. There’s a reason our biggest guy doesn’t shoot FTs, he goes away from contact. He’s surprisingly good at scoring while doing so, but it means no FTs. Bridges isn’t a forceful driver either. Paul rarely challenges the lane unless it’s an obvious opportunity. We don’t have our typical guy who racks up trips to the line in Booker. Cam Johnson is the only guy we have that does it at present, but he still not at his full physicality imo from his inquiry and he’s not a great athlete who gets a step or goes over players regularly. Those are the types that draw a lot of fouls bc they’ve gained an advantage that requires a foul.Eddie Johnson was saying something to this effect all game, that Suns players need to go into the contact.
David Stern resurrected from the dead to rig the league again. ImpressiveJust a little food for though from reddit
The Suns, Mavs and Grizzlies all had a chance to go up 3-1 all lost and in those games the opponent shot 42, 40 and 42 free throws.

No, he's just possessing SilverDavid Stern resurrected from the dead to rig the league again. Impressive
Bridges has been terrible guarding Ingram, he's much more effective on CJ. Crowder and Craig are the only two with any chance against Ingram and he killed both of them last night.1. Move crowder off of brandon ingram. Put mikal on him, shamat on CJ
2. CP isnt even takinf the opportunities even when he gets to his spots
3. Ayton needs to get the ball every time down the floor and go around jonas and take him out of the game
4. Both Cams and Mikal need to be agressive and hit open shots
Everybody has been terrible guarding Ingram. He is a legit star. All you can hope for is slowing him down. He was playing like this before the playoffs. The only difference is other guys are stepping up and they have another weapon in McCollum.Bridges has been terrible guarding Ingram, he's much more effective on CJ.

I was responding to a post implying that switching Bridges onto Ingram would help. I don't think that it will.Everybody has been terrible guarding Ingram. He is a legit star.
