Wizards @ Suns Tuesday game thread 12-20-2022

[Finito]

Let’s go defense

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Suns 30 - Wizards 27

 

[Mainstreet]

Washington to Biz for the SLAM.

How was a foul not called.

 

[Finito]

Biz!!!!

 

[Mainstreet]

Landry says how do you like my shot tonight.

 

[Mainstreet]

Wizards are playing good defense. The Suns are not.

 

[Finito]

We should not be losing to the wizards

 

[Finito]

Embarrassing defense

 

[Mainstreet]

I'm not liking the way the Suns are playing. The Wizards extend their defense and the Suns don't make them pay for it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Paul's shot has disappeared again.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns are content to shoot outside which is a losing formula.

 

[Finito]

Man looks like Ayton can do whatever he wants tonight

Suns: meh let’s Chuck up jumpers and not get back on defense

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Wizards 53 - Suns 48

So much talk about if Mikal just had the opportunity, he could be a 20 ppg scorer.

We’ve had a RASH of injuries to each of our top 3 of 4 players. Opportunity galore to show that this season.

Especially with Devin and DA in and out of the lineup the last 7 games.

In that stretch, he’s shooting an absolutely pathetic 35%, averaging 17.8 ppg and 2 assists. And only reason he’s averaging that much is because he’s shootings a ton, relative to what he usually does.

 

[Mainstreet]

Paul may be showing some fatigue playing in the second of back-to-back games.

He is 0-5 but does have 5 assists.

 

[Mainstreet]

Some halftime stats.

Some of you guys wouldn’t trade Bridges for Siakam… I just don’t get it. His defense isn’t even that good this season.

 

[Mainstreet]

Right now the Suns are looking like the team that lost 5 games in a row.

 

[Finito]

Suns 18 points in the paint in the 1st

4 points in the paint in the second

Why the F does this team just go away from stuff when it’s working

 

[Finito]

Timeout Suns 2 minutes into the 3rd smh

 

[Proximo]

Suns seem to have forgotten how to shoot again.

What don’t you get

HE MAKES FUNNY FACES WHEN HE DUNKS!!!!

 

[Cheesebeef]

Ayton started hot and has faded.

Mikal keeps proving why he can’t be depended on as a legit scoring option.

CP3 looks older than dirt:

And we’re getting whooped by a team that’s lost 10 games in a row.

With every passing game, we cement our status as a 1 trick pony with Booker.

If Siakam is actually available and Bridges and picks and guys that aren’t even playing is all we need to make that deal, the FO are idiots not to do it. It’s a move that not only makes us better today, but continues to do so for the next four years. Also sells high on Bridges. This is all he is.

 

[Finito]

When does our new owner become official

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns are giving up offensive rebounds which leads to second chance points.
