Suns @ Grizzlies Friday game thread 11-12-2021

[Chaplin]

I forgot the game started earlier, I come on and we look terrible. But we’re up 30. Weird.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Suns 92 - Grizzlies 64

 

[Mainstreet]

This is looking like the Kings game right now giving up the big lead.

Suns choking in the 4th again

Timeout with the Suns leading 97-73.

Suns choking in the 4th again

They lose focus and just start tossing up shots.

JaVale with the cleanup of missed shot.

 

[Finito]

I love Ja he needs to a sun

 

[Mainstreet]

Grizzlies have made a lot of stops at the rim tonight believe it or not.

Even Brandon Clarke could make me happy.

 

[Mainstreet]

Cam Johnson needs to make those open threes.

 

[Mainstreet]

Jalen Smith getting some more minutes.

Final:

Suns 119 - Grizzlies 94

Apparently McGee took off the eye wear and I didn't even notice. Maybe that's why he started playing better.

The Suns are making Ayton look a little superfluous.

If the Wolves keep stinking and KAT starts making rumblings, I make an Ayton/Saric/picks for him and watch us become an offensive juggernaut that can’t be stopped with good size backing KAT up.

Suns 18-37 from three for 48.6%.

There are some intriguing trade ideas with the Knicks as well.

What are those ideas?

I can definitely see that becoming something to think about if the Suns keep rolling without Ayton.

It's quite possible. And we'll probably never know either way, especially if it doesn't continue to drag on.

This span of games/days is weird for banging a knee with no soft tissue damage and no sprain.

The trade idea involved Deandre Ayton for Obi Toppin, Mitchell Robinson, Alec Burks and two first round picks.

Being on the receiving end of the pupu platter rarely works in your favor. They’d have to give more.

I don't know what the Suns would do with all those players anyway. It would probably have to be a multi-team trade. The plum would have to be Toppin depending upon how the Suns feel about him. There are probably better ideas out there.

Jae Crowder says the Suns defense was good tonight.
