Dallas @ Suns Game 1 (R2) Monday 5-2-2022, 7 PM

[Hoop Head]

I kind of spaced out Jason Kidd was coaching the Mavericks now. No wonder Luka seems more annoying this year. Kidd was always obnoxious as a player with his whining as well.

I'm less concerned about the Mavs winning though. Carlisle was a better coach by a significant margin than Kidd. We'll see how things shake out but I'm now thinking Suns in 4.

How can us Suns fans can any player or fanbase "annoying" or "crybabies" when we have the Suns in 4 Guy and Chris Paul?

Why is Booker going to guard Doncic? Everyone says Booker is now a great defender, so surely he can do it...but Bridges can probably do it more easily. Or Jae Crowder. Instead of those two, the Suns are willing to wear down their biggest offensive weapon by making him chase the opponent's best player.

This is an example of what I said puzzles me about the Suns' defense: how it doesn't fully exploit Warden Bridges by always putting him on the opponent's best player.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns switch a lot. I think Mikal Bridges will get guard Doncic a lot along with some double teams.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns will return to their normal lineup with Cam Johnson coming off the bench.

I heard earliest he could be back is the finals, so he will not play in this series.

 

[Mainstreet]

Devin Booker is considered to be fine.

[Mainstreet]

Almost game time.

 

[Mainstreet]

Chris Paul hits his first shot. Suns lead 2-0.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Well then!

 

[Cheesebeef]

Today has been a colossal disaster for me in so many different ways that there is no way tonight ends with a W for the good guys.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Powell guarding Booker interesting

 

[Mainstreet]

I think the Pelicans did their job well.

Right?

 

[Mainstreet]

And Jae hits a 3P.

 

[Chaplin]

You can already see the difference the Pels and the Mavs.

[Finito]

Suns energy just looks way different

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Shoot it Crowder!!

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton is setting up too far out.

 

[Finito]

Mavs lucky but suns got there hands on another pass

 

[Chaplin]

Ayton is setting up too far out.

He’s forcing it. Like he has jitters.

And then he gets the And 1.

 

[Finito]
