Suns @ Trail Blazers Friday game thread 10-21-2022

[Mainstreet]

Paul already has 4 steals.

 

[Mainstreet]

And Paul gets his first points.

 

[Chaplin]

We have seen point book over the long haul. The fact that it’s not the answer means it not a luxury. A luxury would be an “extra” guy you think could always play the position. It’s a necessary evil because over the long haul the same “Point Book” will eventually emerge and we don’t want that.

Sorry but a good 3rd PG is a luxury. We’re not talking about him doing it every game.

 

[Finito]

I like this rule change

 

[Mainstreet]

Paul is a force defensively.

 

[Covert Rain]

Jock was too soft on that.

 

[Mainstreet]

I like this rule change

Suns had a player ahead on defense. I didn't like the call because Paul was going for the steal.

 

[Covert Rain]

Sorry but a good 3rd PG is a luxury. We’re not talking about him doing it every game.

Book is no PG. The Suns watched Book play it enough. What did they do? They got Rubio. After Rubio they got CP3. The past two few offseason’s what did the do? Been trying to get a competent backup PG. Sorry but I believe Monty and the Jones know what they are doing.

 

[Finito]

Paul is a force defensively.

It’s more the Blazers throwing bad passes into traffic. I don’t think he’s picked anyones pocket

 

[Proximo]

Okogie is at least playing good d.

 

[Finito]

Suns had a player ahead on defense. I didn't like the call because Paul was going for the steal.

I thought he was going for the foul. Even so it was Ticky tack

But I like that you can’t just stop the fast break

 

[Mainstreet]

Paul is solid and tricky on defense.

 

[Covert Rain]

The Blazers are making a ton of bad passes and taking some stupid shots and suprisingly still in it.

 

[Covert Rain]

Steal and 3 by Book!!!

 

[Finito]

I don’t like Lee complaining wanting a foul when the play is still going

 

[Covert Rain]

Come on Bridges. Bad pass and foul back to back.

 

[Mainstreet]

Deandre looking good.

 

[Proximo]

These refs suck

 

[Mainstreet]

Bridges has 3 fouls and Monty is challenging a call.

 

[Finito]

These refs suck

HARD

 

[Covert Rain]

Deandre looking good.

He is.

 

[Covert Rain]

Bridges just making some stupid plays right now.

 

[Chaplin]

Book in no PG. The Suns watched Book play it enough. What did they do? They got Rubio. After Rubio they got CP3. The past two few offseason’s what did the do? Been trying to get a competent backup PG. Sorry but I believe Monty and the Jones know what they are doing.

Geez if you are going to be this obtuse about it then forget it.

 

[Covert Rain]

Geez if you are going to be this obtuse about it then forget it.

*cough* self-awareness *cough*

 

[Finito]

Point Book just holds the ball way to long
