Suns @ Warriors 10-22-18

[Russ Smith]

NBA refs amaze me. 2nd time tonight Ayton just changed pivot feet on a post move without being called for a walk. Then he drives, Durant fouls him, he passes so hard he hits Draymond in the face with the pass, and the call is a shooting foul? Did they rule he was trying to shoot a hook shot and the foul caused it to be like a pass I don't get how you can not see what the guy with the ball does?

You can tolerate missing calls away from the ball but on the ball like that I never get how they miss blatant walks or call a pass a shot.

Ayton will figure it out. He just has to understand that he can't coast in the NBA.

He looks as clueless defensively in the post as anyone I’ve ever seen. He’s got superior footwork when forced to the perimeter to defend, particularly for his size. But he’s just clueless as a rim defender.

 

[SirStefan32]

Canaan can't buy a three tonight. Every single one is an inch off.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

If I recall, the Warriors switch everything. It shouldn't be too hard to get Klay to switch off of Booker.

He needs to move more off ball and get more screens from teammates and that might just happen.

That was absolutely a shooting foul. He dragged his arm.

That sounds EXACTLY like Bender!

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I never want to see a Canaan-Anderson-chandler three man game again. Fechhh.

 

[SirStefan32]

Booker is going for a double-double featuring turnovers.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Defensive rotations terrible and now everyone playing hero ball. I know this is the warriors but being down almost 30 with 6 mins left in the third is as embarrassing as any loss last year.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Did i say “almost 30?”

 

[Russ Smith]

Warriors announcers both said the same thing, why is he shooting FT's he passed teh ball. Either you got a better angle than we did on the Warriors broadcast or it just looked odd so it seemed like a pass.

Now if they will just stop letting him change pivot feet I'll be happy.

 

[Folster]

Ariza's got no lift.

 

[Folster]

This line-up is making a little run.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Canaan can't buy a three tonight. Every single one is an inch off.

He’s also making unforced turnovers. Dude sucks.

 

[Yuma]

You score after picking up your dribble on KD like that, it's a big boy score! Warren is really impressing!@

Oh come on. He's a better defender already than Stoudemire ever was.

This is Ayton's third game. It's a steep learning curve and he's making a lot of basic mistakes, but even within a game he starts making adjustments. I'm not concerned about him at all.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I would force fees Ayton in the post for the rest of the night. Make him become aggressive and learn to punish another team.

 

[Yuma]

Warren has to start! Cmon Igor think about it!

Stousemire is setting a pretty low bar.

 

[Yuma]

Mercy rule.....

 

[SirStefan32]

Stousemire is setting a pretty low bar.

Well, sure, but you did say he was as clueless as anyone you had ever seen.

 

[Folster]

I still can't believe the NBA didn't smooth the cap increase an allowed the Warriors to assemble this team. It's just ridiculous.

OK, if we agree with Ouchie, he sucks AND he still is getting a double double! Better than Len. Still an upgrade at Center!!!!

 

[SirStefan32]

Also, for the love of God, do not go under when Curry is running pick and roll.

 

[Proximo]

He definitely needs more minutes. He is playing like a boss.

Too bad nobody else is.
