Suns @ Warriors Tuesday game thread, 10-24-2023 - SEASON OPENER

[BirdGangThing]

Can we stop putting Nurk on CP3 at the top of the key please and thank you omg

 

[Mainstreet]

YUTA for three.

 

[Covert Rain]

Watanabe!

 

[BirdGangThing]

Yuta baby

 

[Cheesebeef]

Durant is reminding me of just past his prime Tom Chambers, the year right before we traded for Barkley.

And then he fell off a cliff. Hoping that’s not the scenario here but ever since we got him, it looks REALLY hard for him to get anyone off the dribble and rise to get a great look.

 

[nashman]

Not sure I like the rotation that doesn’t have Book or Durant on the floor that didn’t look good at all! Not to mention Allen shooting straight trash tonight, give Mets a look he was killing from 3 in preseason…

 

[Cheesebeef]

Yep. That CP3 sure is washed.

I loved when you would do this 20 times last season… and then wouldn’t say a word the other 60 games where he looked like trash.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nassir Little has entered the game for the Suns.

 

[Mainstreet]

Little says take that and hits a three.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Vogel is still experimenting and I like it

 

[Germz249]

Horrible shooting

 

[Mainstreet]

The shots are not falling for Gordon.

 

[Mainstreet]

Saric blocked Gordon's shot?

 

[Raindog]

The shots are not falling for Gordon.

It doesn't seem like they are falling for anyone.

And the turnovers have been atrocious.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Okogie singlehanded keeping us in this.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker needs a running mate and it's Okogie.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Warriors 86 - Suns 80

 

[Raindog]

That was a fugly quarter for the Suns.

 

[Proximo]

The shots are not falling for Gordon.

Gordon and Allen cannot both be awful and we win I'm afraid. Well at least not when Beal is out.

 

[Cheesebeef]

End of 3rd quarter:

Warriors 86 - Suns 80

Outscored 40-19.

 

[Russ Smith]

that block by Eubanks was insane. Live I thought it was a goaltend because there was just no way he got up that high that quickly but he actually did, clean block. I always liked him in college but his body got really thick but he clearly still has the hops.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Gordon and Allen cannot both be awful and we win I'm afraid. Well at least not when Beal is out.

And when KD looks washed.

 

[BirdGangThing]

I'm good - I still think we win this game

 

[95pro]

no Beal which I was upset about during last weeks lakers game.

Now Durant sucking. He keeps doing the same fade on the left side of the basket. And missing.

Allen just looks like he’s trying to do too much. Just shoot when you’re open. He’s driven in and doesn’t know what to do next.

CP3 always plays refreshed in the first game. He’ll break later.

 

[Mainstreet]

Gordon and Allen cannot both be awful and we win I'm afraid. Well at least not when Beal is out.

They both picked a bad game to be awful.
