They won the game by overwhelming talent upside and adequate coaching. They made tough shots and made our D rotation collapse. Even their weakest center position with Diabate and Kalkbrenner is better than ours with Oso and MW. We'd have needed Allen and Gillespie to nail those open 3s to be...
Gillespie went 0/12 and 0/8 for 3, before scoring 11 in the 4th. If he scored some on those open 3s, we'd not have needed Book's 36 pt to stay with the Grizz bench team. It was purely mental. Hope he got his confidence back now for rest of season.
I'd guess MW and Brooks come back tomorrow to...
Fleming and Khaman were really raw, but with sheer athletic ability. That's a gamble the rebuilding Suns was willing to take, and rewarded with their development over the course of a reason.
In hindsight Ott shouldn't have let Fleming in for the last Suns possesion just as he left out Oso, for bad FT shooting. Either Bouyea or Coffey woulda been better. Fox carried them in the 4th after repeatedly schooling Fleming, even though one shot got blocked. It's good lesson but cost us the...
If CG were still hurt, it'd be wise to rest him a couple of games whenever GA is healthy, and give Bouyea some playing time. In POs, we'd need all of our guys shooting 3s well, to have a chance to advance.
I only got to watch the 4th qrt. Tired legs were a factor for sure, plus the experience issue of our young guys Fleming, Oso and Gillespie. Green's problem since with Rockets has been his relying too much on athletism, Dunn and Oso partially share this. Anyways, we need Brooks and Williams back...
I'm not really mad at this loss. They are the NBA champion 2 years ago and currently one of the best teams. Our loss is squarely on lack of experience and preparation for tough close playoff type of games with this new team. Book was great with his scoring but committed too many TOs off swarming...
Green has this skill to break down opp. defense like that. He's the bad habit of committing careless passing TOs. Suns D is not up to task today. Maluach and Fleming had a few positioning mistakes.
A weird game with incredible 3pt shooting from both teams. The shooting touch appeared to be contagious that went from Bucks to Suns in the 4th qrt. Bucks D is not so good that we had 3pt chances more open than against the better defensive teams.
Green's speed is needed to break down their D in...
Bucks shoots 3s incredibly. Allen should have trusted Fleming in the final play, his help left Kuzma wide open for a long 3pt. All in all good game for both teams.
Green is kinda streaky only 2 pts after 14 of Suns first 20. It's great the team is trying to get passes to Maluach often and with...
Full attention on rotations from everybody. Dunn inexplacably makes a lot mistakes in those situations, often by running to far out to come back in time.
