Suns @ Heat Saturday game thread 8-8-20 (season restart)

[BC867]

Ayton how do you let DJJr push you out of the paint?

He is a finesse Center. That is clear at this point.

He needs to be part of a Twin Tower next to a power player.

 

[Mainstreet]

Only 8 points from Bridges (0), Rubio (2) and Ayton (6).

That's a huge part of the problem.

What the hell does TJ Warren have to do with this game??

If we had him, we would be in the playoffs and we wouldn't have to worry about this game...

Which is unfortunate, as he has so much size and strength and just refuses to use them to his advantage.

 

[TJ]

TJ didn’t want to be a Sun.

End of story.

Grays cam u have a bright future

He will be like a dan majerle play well after getting booed in draft

 

[BirdGangThing]

We played a crappy first half and still came out tied, and that's what good teams do

 

[Mainstreet]

Bridges gets his first basket on layup.

 

[95pro]

Book means business, can tell he wants to win. I don’t have the same sense from Ayton.

heat are well coached and executing screens and spacing the floor well. They’re also playing solid D no matter who’s in the game.

 

[Mainstreet]

Crowder blocks Ayton.

 

[1Sun]

TJ didn’t want to be a Sun.

End of story.

And why was that? If it was Kokoskov, that problem was solved. If it was McDonough, that problem was solved. If it was James Jones, that problem could easily be solved. If it was Robert Sarver, then we're screwed no matter what happens, and Devin Booker is next.

 

[BC867]

Is there room for Booker and Warren on the same team?

Seriously, aren't they too much alike to work together?

Or would it relegate Book to being primarily a Point Guard,
which I don't think is in his agenda? His idol was Kobe and,
as Kobe, he expects to be "The Wing".

Kobe couldn't even get along with Shaq at Center. But the
Lakers are the Lakers and they won championships.

Oscar Robertson (averaging a triple-double for the season)
got along well with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (when he was
Lou Alcindor) on the Bucks.

 

[Mainstreet]

Rubio gets Ayton easy layup.

 

[BirdGangThing]

That's how you feed a big man

 

[95pro]

Finally a dunk by Ayton

 

[TJ]

Good morning, Ayton

 

[95pro]

Even coming down from the dunk in slow mo Ayton looks scared.

Warren is playing power forward for the Pacers and killing it at that position. I don't think we're ever going to do better than that at the power forward spot.

Isn't that natural the first time you try something?

 

[Hoop Head]

Ayton’s not ready for this game

They aren't testing for recreational substances in the bubble. So how high do you think Ayton has been in the bubble? Could be exactly why he's appear lazy in almost every outing, especially in the 1st half of games.

Whether Warren is playing Power Forward and Booker is covering the Point,
they're both Wings and expecting to be the alpha dog on their team now.

Just what we need...for Ayton to turn into another Al Harrington, or worse, William Bedford...

Stop.

 

[Mainstreet]

Bridges getting run ragged trying to keep up on defense.
