Suns @ Raptors Tuesday game thread 1-11-2022

[Finito]

Remember when the Suns were good at defense?

Ooooh I member

 

[Mainstreet]

I do not like McGee and Stix playing together. Play one or the other.

 

[DJ Tabooh]

Man, what's happened to Phoenix's defense?

Not on a string whatsoever. But our issue is we’re letting our missing shots affect that end of the court….c’mon boys. WAKE UP! We’re gonna get run outta the gym if this continues.

 

[Mainstreet]

Man, what's happened to Phoenix's defense?

It's just not there.

 

[82CardsGrad]

Man… feels like Book hasn’t had his shooting touch in a while… Suns look totally out of sync.

 

[Mainstreet]

Do it Stix!

 

[Suns_fan69]

Smith looks much more comfortable shooting that 3. Doesn't feel as rushed. Cans his first look from out there.

 

[Mainstreet]

Where is Suns rebounding?

 

[Suns_fan69]

But it's the other end that will tell whether Stix can play the 4. So far Toronto is hunting him on mismatches.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Raptors 31 - Suns 23

Man… feels like Book hasn’t had his shooting touch in a while… Suns look totally out of sync.

He’s shot 40% since coming back from the hamstring. Ironically, his 3 point percentage has gone up in that time. The New Orleans game was the last time in the last few where he’s been consistent with his midrange. Not worried about it but it shows how much we rely on him to score night in and night out.

Great block by Smith on OG

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns looked better before Ayton, Crowder and McGee returned.

 

[Finito]

Stix might be my favorite Sun

 

[Suns_fan69]

Not loving these minutes without Cp3 or Booker given how poor Cam Payne has been lately.

 

[Finito]

Suns looked better before Ayton, Crowder and McGee returned.

There all coming back from Covid. You should expect them to not be 100% right away

 

[Mainstreet]

Biz is going to get some minutes at center.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nice three by Crowder.

 

[Finito]

This line up is odd

Bismack
Stix
Crowder

 

[Mainstreet]

Jae with some much needed offense.

 

[Finito]

BossMan99 putting the suns on his back

 

[Suns_fan69]

Crowder's found a rhythm.

 

[Finito]

Bismack not looking good at all

 

[Mainstreet]

Biz not letting any rebounds get away.

 

[Suns_fan69]

Bismack not looking good at all

Disagree, his defense and rebounding has really helped.
