Chris Paul gets the Suns on the scoreboard with a mid-range shot.

Jackson blocks Ayton underneath.
Because Ayton goes up soft and doesn’t dunk it. Then he gives up two offensive rebounds by Adams and a put back.

Meanwhile, Bridges tries to make something happen but as usual brain farts/craps his pants when defense closes and turns the ball over.

These two guys were supposed to be pillars of a contender for a decade. They’re both such disappointments.

Timeout Suns trailing 15-4. Paul has scored all the Suns points.

If Bridges just had the opportunity, he could be a 20 ppg scorer…

Suns front court has to contribute to give the Suns a chance.

Brooks puts a floater over Ayton.

Who then shoots an airball.

Meanwhile, Bridges might as well be sitting courtside with all of his contributions so far tonight.

I remember when the Suns used to play defense but it's been awhile.

It's disappointing the Suns look to be out of the game before the 1st quarter has ended.

They trail 32-13.

You ever go to Corky’s for BBQ? Love that joint. So much damn food per plate.

Made two trips to Memphis in college. One for a Dead Show (which we followed up by a surprise midnight set by BB King at BB King’s). That was an epic trip.

Then was going somewhere over Labor Day weekend and on a whim my two friends and I saw the sign for Memphis 100 miles away and said screw it and went there for the weekend. Camped one night and stayed near Beale and just got annihilated the second night.

Had a blast both times. Man, I loved that place.
Oh yes, corkys for sure, some good food there. Did some playing around Memphis as well (guitar) and got to see both games when the Suns played the grizz in the playoffs with the Nash-amare-Marion team.

The Suns need a bench that's stronger than Wainright and Saric.

Ayton is watching Adams rebound.
