Suns @ Timberwolves Saturday Playoff game thread, 4-20-24 - Game 1

[Dback Jon]

Pathetic play

 

[Mainstreet]

Durant didn't even look where he passed the ball.

 

[Dback Jon]

This is getting out of hand

 

[Hoop Head]

or not

You didn't say which team. Got to be specific.

 

[Yuma]

Turn overs are killing us. Jumping in the air for no reason to pass the ball, it happens to us a couple times a game.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Look at all those turnovers Vogel is forcing his players to make...lol

Too bad Durant is the only player who came to play today. If someone else doesn't step up soon, this game is over.

 

[JosiahLee]

Terrible. Terrible passes.

 

[nashman]

Getting some of them on foul trouble at least!

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

Book playing like this is an elimination game.

 

[Yuma]

Why isn't that a take? He fouled to stop a break.

 

[Dback Jon]

Should have been

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Timberwolves 61 - Suns 51

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Book playing like this is an elimination game.

Foul problems and in the locker room early?

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

Nurk and Durant came to play. Everyone else...not so much

 

[nashman]

Why isn't that a take? He fouled to stop a break.

Because these officials are trash! Clearly a take foul!

 

[Yuma]

We DeFINETLY lost the second quarter....

 

[Hoop Head]

Why isn't that a take? He fouled to stop a break.

No take fouls in the final 2 minutes of a quarter.

 

[Yuma]

Foul problems and in the locker room early?

I saw him on the bench.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Durant with 35% of the Suns points.

 

[Absolute Zero]

Hey @82CardsGrad how you liking Book's game so far today?

 

[RON_IN_OC]

I saw him on the bench.

Ah, I thought I saw him head to the LR after the 3rd foul. Good he stayed.

 

[Yuma]

No take fouls in the final 2 minutes of a quarter.

Thank you!

 

[BirdGangThing]

look - i posted the devin booker greatest sun ever thread so don't @ me but come on - yeah - they're not calling fouls but you're the master of creating space so do your dance and hit the mid range

what you don't do is run back late - switch onto kat and get that lazy ass reaching in frustrated blocking foul because along with dumb fouls come bad fouls - so you can't sit and pout

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns bench has 6 points all from O'Neale while the Timberwolves bench has 21 points.

It's a familiar disparity.

 

[JosiahLee]

Good close to the half. To take it from 14 to 10 keeps us in range. They must win the 3rd quarter to have a chance. Would be ideal to only be down 5 or less going into the 4th.
