Suns @ Mavericks Tuesday game thread 1-28-20

As long as the Suns play well while he is running the team.

Were they?

 

[Mainstreet]

Saric (6) and Jerome (2) is the only bench scoring thus far.

 

[Mainstreet]

Were they?

They kept most of the lead.

 

[Chaplin]

Were they?

He’s fine. The problem isn’t that Jerome is in the game, it’s that Ayton and Booker are not.

Good timeout call from Monty though.

+1

Tyler Johnson’s continual regression is mind boggling.

Ha.... right when I hit ‘post’ he hits a 3.

 

[Phrazbit]

They kept most of the lead.

A -5 in 2 minutes is pretty rough. And surprisingly offense wasn't they issue, I think they scored 6 points together but I don't think they got a single stop.

But follows that with one of his patented "drunken dribbles" where he charges head down in the lane and loses it off his own legs.

Womp Womp.

 

[Mainstreet]

Kelly needs to take the ball inside instead of shooting 3s.

 

[itlnsunsfan]

Like that spin move from ayton.

 

[Phrazbit]

Ayton's footwork in the post is amazing for his age. He just embarrassed Portzingis.

Suns don't have much of a bench. Keeping the lead at 8 points is something.

 

[Mainstreet]

Need to bottle how Ayton is playing tonight.

 

[gimpy]

If anyone not playing well, it's Oubre.

 

[Mainstreet]

That's what Kelly should be doing.

 

[Mainstreet]

If anyone not playing well, it's Oubre.

Keep it going. You have got him playing well.

 

[gimpy]

Ah, right on cue. A couple of nice shots by Oubre.

 

[TJ]

Let the big dog eat

 

[JerkFace]

Man... two awful calls on Ayton in a row.

 

[gimpy]

Man , where does the NBA get these refs ? SMH

 

[Mainstreet]

Three fouls on Ayton.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 60 - Mavericks 55

[Sunstroke]

Nice half by the Suns especially the play of Ayton. Aggressive, attacking the basket from the paint.
It's too bad a decade of futility has hampered the Suns in the ref's eyes as the Sun's only star rarely gets
an 'and one' and their future star doesn't get the 'no call' for good defense and now enters the 2nd half with three fouls.

Go Suns!
