Trail Blazers @ Suns Monday game thread 1-1-2024

[Mainstreet]

Booker looks in rhythm now.

 

[Yuma]

Man, looks like we have a Yuta sighting.

 

[Chaplin]

Garbage time!

 

[Yuma]

Booker looks in rhythm now.

I think he's hit 3 in a row now.

 

[Yuma]

Bench has to hold the lead! C'mon guys!

 

[Mainstreet]

Goodwin and Eubanks enter the game.

 

[Mainstreet]

Wainright hits a three so he will not go empty handed.

 

[Yuma]

Josh doesn't want to shoot...

 

[Yuma]

I know Yuta has been struggling. He needs to get one up.

 

[Yuma]

Yuta the Shootah with the dunk!

Final:

Suns 109 - Trail Blazers 88

 

[Chaplin]

11 and 9 from Bol is a huge luxury.

Lately we have been lucky with guys like Azubike and Bol Bol throwing out essentially double doubles unexpectedly for us.

[Yuma]

34 bench points as opposed to just 6 last night.

 

[Yuma]

Suns still in the eighth spot in WC, but 4 in a row streak!

 

[Yuma]

Watching Vogel in press conference. I really want to start a go fund me for some new hair for coach. He is too good looking for that hair!

 

[Yuma]

Metu quietly been solid lately.

 

[GatorAZ]

How’d Beal look?

 

[clyde2tw]

Wish we had a mixture of Beal and Book at handling the ball and at drives. Beal is more forceful but often get into too many collapsing defenders and TOs. Book ends up with jump shots most of the time. It's up to the coaches to find suiting plays. Bol Bol surprised everybody in this game, though maybe due to lesser competition. Okogie tried to facilitate with good results, particularly targeting Bol maybe by design as both were on the court together. Grant started to hit well and this time our defense responded well. It's an easy game in the end as the Blazers really bad.

11 and 9 from Bol is a huge luxury.

Few games like this we can sell high
