I’d like for us to have another plan when the 3 isn’t falling. Sure would be great if Ayton could draw fouls.

Eddie hit the problem. Monty didn’t do anything until the Suns missed like 7 3-pointers in a row.

Ayton is the only starter along with Book who’s doing anything. Bridges lack of anything tonight is a much bigger problem.

This is three really bad offensive games in a row for Bridges. I wonder if he's hurt or ill.

That's what Payne needs to do is take it to the rim.

Time to take Galloway out. Once he’s lost it doesn’t usually come back.
That’s what we need from Payne.

Awesome pass by Crowder to Johnson.

BTW, Paul continues his horrid shooting and struggles on defense. Rubio is also playing poorly, but Paul clearly is in his final decline.

Just give it to Cam Johnson. The one player that is doing everything right in this game.

I'm starting to come around on him...to the point where I am wondering if it would benefit the Suns to start him over Bridges.

Suns better figure out how to play against the zone quick, or every team is going to use it on them.

All the starters still have a minus PER and all the bench with a plus PER.

If this team wants to be able to compete for a title Ayton will have to become a weapon that diversifies the offense beyond just shooting threes.

This. Lack of good adjustments. Pistons been in a zone and we changed nothing for a long time.
And my gripe is the sub pattern.

The catch 22 is that if the Suns are only shooting 3s and missing, Ayton never touches the ball.

Saric doesn't have the handles nor the hops inside.
