Suns @ Warriors 10-22-18

This is just pathetic by Ayton, not even contesting it and gets out of the way.

Our two best players are horri-bad defenders. It’s usually hard to win 30 games when that’s the case.

 

[1Sun]

Haha. Sorry. Even understanding our youth I was too amped for the beginning of the season. I knew we wouldn’t be good yet, but back-to-back blowouts has really been unsettling to me.

Actually, it's been pretty much exactly as I expected...

 

[Yuma]

Another TJ three? My god! Did he go to the Schwartz Lazer Eye Center?

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Warren making threes means he has to be starting over Anderson. Brings so much more on both ends than Anderson and would help us to get out to quicker starts.

Who are the two?

 

[1Sun]

Who are the two?

I'm guessing Booker and Ayton, though Warren is not a good defender, either. (Then again, nobody on this team is defending well at the moment. The defense this year is amazingly worse than last year.)

 

[sunsfan88]

I think those didn't watch this game but will post later after the game will look at the box score and be impressed with Ayton's box score stats. It definitely does not tell the whole story today.

Bender sighting!

That's why I asked. I have been watching TJ over his career. He is an underrated defender. He will never make first team defense, but you rarely see him burned.

 

[JCSunsfan]

Learning experience for us. Have we ever signed a vet locker room leader type player who actually did not play like crap on the court? Ariza had one good game so far. Anderson has had none.

I would rather play Bender than Anderson. Bender plays better D.

Meh. He had a bad start, but has played better as the game has gone on.

That’s the other issue. Nobody really wants to defend or knows how to defend. The one that used to (Ariza) has no legs anymore.

 

[HeHasRosen]

Anderson Chandler and Ariza should probably all consider retirement

 

[Yuma]

EJ talks about Bridges arms being long. Uh, Eddie, have you seen that guy named KD on the other team?

KD is also 7' tall. Mikal has similar length at 6'7".

Agreed. He and booker got a lot of empty stats.

 

[sunsfan88]

I think Dudley offered more than Anderson does.

I really think so. At this point he's arguably just as good from three.

Umm don’t get crazy.

 

[Yuma]

OMG! That's bad. But did Dudley help get rid of Knight and Chriss?

 

[GoldGloveschmidt]

Team desperately needs a starting PG.... Booker clearly is not one but he's being used like one. 9 turnovers.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Agreed. He and booker got a lot of empty stats.

Disagree about Booker. He was a -5 in a blowout and most of his turnovers were him simply making poor decisions on passes. I thought he actually had a solid game.

 

[Yuma]

KD is also 7' tall. Mikal has similar length at 6'7".

I know. There's also a guy named Rudy Gobert who has snakes for arms!

 

[Proximo]

Have you looked at their salaries?

I think they are making the right choice.
