Suns @ Pistons Friday game thread 1-8-2021

[Mainstreet]

Booker's turnovers can be a problem. Some aren't even close.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Just chucking up 3s. Okay... finally something to the bucket.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Come on Mikal.

 

[Mainstreet]

Much needed shot by Ayton.

 

[FB94]

First team blows so far

 

[Cheesebeef]

Ayton can do that ALL DAY.

 

[Chaplin]

Bench gets big lead... starters lose it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 56 - Pistons 48

 

[Cheesebeef]

Just 3 after 3 after 3 after 3 missed.

gwt something to the basket

 

[95pro]

Horrible defense by the starters, no intensity at all.

 

[Proximo]

We may be better just playing the bench the whole second half.

starters stunk it up to end the half.

 

[Mainstreet]

Bridges (0) and Ayton (4) need to get it going in the second half.

If it wasn't for Galloway (17) the game would be much closer.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Entire bench has a positive +/-

Entire starting five has a negative +/-

Not sure I have seen this before.

 

[Mainstreet]

Payne and Carter bring energy and defense to the bench.

 

[Proximo]

Can’t believe we are 0-7 from the free throw line.

that is the worst stretch I can remember in a long time.

Ugh well least still by 12

Suns have to get better at holding big leads

Good gm by golloway

we are up by 8, not 12.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

Lol. Everyone needs to calm down. Detroit’s free throw defense should regress in the 2nd half.

Suns are getting *whatever* they want on offense. Missing open 3s is okay!

Oh my bad lol

I don’t think we’ll lose this game but I’m still ticked at how bad the starters are playing.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns starters are playing like the first half against the Clippers. Against good teams you can't get away with it.

Also Suns play Indiana tomorrow. They should have put the game away.

You don't put the game away in the first half.

If they can play a good 3rd quarter they might be able to pull away going into the 4th.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

Booker is a problem.

And I don’t mean that in the young folks’ manner.

Yup now the starters are probably gonna be bit tired having to play more .....

Hope suns pul li away fast in 3rd

Wouldn't it be ironic if, after all the desperation about Booker leaving a bad team in frustration, the Suns decided to dump him once they got good?
