Rockets @ Suns Sunday game thread 10-30-2022

Biz. Be careful

 

[Dback Jon]

I am pretty confident to say that Cam Payne's problem last year was Javale McGee. A guy who is only at the basket, but when he plays with guys that move a lot more and like being on the perimeter, all of a sudden he's his old self.

Same with Torrey

 

[Mainstreet]

Landale is so active.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

To think athleticism was one of the knocks on Cam coming out of college...

 

[Mainstreet]

Saric has only played 2 minutes thus far this season. I wonder if he will get any playing time tonight.

 

[Mainstreet]

I so dislike fouling on 3-point shots.

 

[Mainstreet]

Landale is doing it all with 14 points.

 

[Mainstreet]

And Landale again for 2.

 

[Mainstreet]

Now Jock with 3 fouls.

 

[Mainstreet]

And four fouls on Landale. A mistake leaving him in the game.

Halftime:

Suns 65 - Rockets 56

 

[Mainstreet]

Some halftime stats.

With the Suns centers burdened with fouls, I don't understand why Saric can't get some minutes unless there is a reason of which I am unaware.

Agreed

 

[Absolute Zero]

CP3 already has 10 assists

I think you are exactly right.

 

[Mainstreet]

Cam Johnson misses a layup.

 

[JCSunsfan]

With the Suns centers burdened with fouls, I don't understand why Saric can't get some minutes unless there is a reason of which I am unaware.

I am convinced that Saric is still only a shell of his former self and that he is only on the roster to be cap filler in a potential trade.

 

[Finito]

No birthday thread for Devin Armani Booker?

 

[Yuma]

Torrey Craig or Saric coming in for third center?

 

[Mainstreet]

Payne hits the 3-pointer.

 

[Mainstreet]

Torrey Craig or Saric coming in for third center?

Craig played center for a few minutes.

 

[Yuma]

Saric looked good in Euro league. This is weird he is not getting ANY run at all.

 

[Mainstreet]

I am convinced that Saric is still only a shell of his former self and that he is only on the roster to be cap filler in a potential trade.

I think Saric can play some backup center unless he is hurting again.

 

[Mainstreet]

Game tied by Rockets at 86.
