Warriors @ Suns Thursday game thread 1-28-2021

[Mainstreet]

Thursday the Suns wrap up their four game home stand against the Warriors before they head out on the road for three games, two games at Dallas and one game in New Orleans.

Warriors are 10-8 after winning their last two games against the Timberwolves.

Suns are 8-8 winning only three of their last ten games and losing three games in a row. That win over the Rockets seems so long ago.

The game will be televised on FSAZ and TNT.

Start time is listed at 8 p.m. Arizona time.

For some reason Ayton and bridges repeatedly were on different pages leading to wide open layups.

 

[Finito]

Easy win for GS today

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns may see some of this from James Wiseman.

I feel like some cosmic balance has been restored to my life, now that I can go back to expecting the Suns to lose every game.

 

[Cheesebeef]

We get rolled tonight to end a stellar 0-4 honestand.

and Oubre posterizes Ayton once.

Just want 1 winning franchise that to much to ask....

 

[Mainstreet]

It's not looking good for a win tonight. Devin Booker, Cam Payne, Dario Saric and Damian Jones are OUT.

Ayton would have passed that out.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton would have passed that out.

This would likely be the best outcome.

 

[Russ Smith]

Ayton would have passed that out.

If Wiseman catches it cleanly he's pretty good at dunking on people. He bobbles lots of them including some lobs. Had one last night off the step looked like an easy dunk and Jarrod Vanderbilt got a piece from behind clearly surprised him. He was 3-3 on threes last night his release is a bit slow but he can shoot it I had no idea he had that kind of range. Has to get better passing the ball it's one of the reasons he doesn't start anymore teams were able to double him and he wouldn't really do anything force the shot or throw it way out.

I think for lots of kids it's just such a shock the level of play at the NBA level, they think they have an easy dunk like in HS or college and then they don't. But I like guys like Wiseman who keep trying to dunk it, the guys who go up softer, the bigs, eventually are just doing the defense a favor. For smaller guys you HAVE to learn to finish without dunking there's just too many long athletic guys in the NBA.

Anthony Edwards had some really nice finishes against the Warriors and last night was making 3's

Wisemen is going to be a beast.

Layup line will be open for Oubre tonight

Oubre goes for 28 tonight, dunks and blocks Ayton at least once tonight, blows kisses to the bench and bows out.

 

[Proximo]

Oubre goes for 28 tonight, dunks and blocks Ayton at least once tonight, blows kisses to the bench and bows out.

Probably and it is going to be hard to watch, most likely humiliating.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Let's go suns hope a better result....

Had some insomnia last night feels meh but i can hang on few more hrs
