Suns @ Jazz Friday game thread, 11-17-2023 - In-Season Tournament Game #2

[Hoop Head]

I set notifications on my phone for Suns games and they're supposed to alert me before or when games start but it seems like the last 3 games I don't get anything until the first quarter is ending or the start of the second. I guess it's better late than never.

Yuta the 3 pt luta

 

[Mainstreet]

That should have been traveling on Markkanen.

That should have been traveling on Markkanen.

100%

 

[Mainstreet]

Where is the Suns defense?

 

[Dback Jon]

Sloppy at the end of the quarter

Where is the Suns defense?

Maybe they get late notifications too?

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

Between the 15 pt lead and all the lavender on the court - Suns fell asleep

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

Suns with a 41 pt first quarter - neither Book nor KD played the entire quarter

 

[Dback Jon]

Disappointing last 3 minutes

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Suns 41 - Jazz 38

Disappointing last 3 minutes

That's what she said

 

[GatorAZ]

Okogie slashing like he thinks he’s Dwayne Wade in his prime.

 

[Mainstreet]

If the Suns don't improve their defense, they are not going anywhere.

 

[Hoop Head]

I have to give Vogel credit as an active coach in the sidelines. He talks to the refs a lot and seems to be very involved. Monty was too passive, which was my primary complaint with him. Still like Monty.

 

[Mainstreet]

KBD with a hard fought basket.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

There we go bench mode gonna need some fight tonight - Diop stepping up again

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

Drewbanks with the finish!!!

 

[Mainstreet]

Goodwin to Eubanks on a lob. Nice play.

 

[Chaplin]

No matter how long he’s been on the team I still can’t get over Kevin Durant in a Suns uniform.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

KD and Book were both on the bench at the same time - bench did okay - it was kinda like a heat check coaching style

 

[Mainstreet]

Nurkic hangs tough and scores.

 

[Dback Jon]

Ayton wouldn’t have gotten that put back

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

5 free throws for Nurk already - in the first half

5 free throws for Nurk already - in the first half

Don’t know if it’s true, but nice to hear we are working on finishing with Nurk.
