Monty thought Cam Johnson And Torrey Craig were solid against the Lakers.

So, we’ve scuffled a bit out of the break, beat up on a couple mediocre teams and MASH units, but now we’ll see if we can really put together a stretch run to solidify our seeding and season.

man... every part of this year has been interesting watching how this team wins, loses and handles adversity. This roadie will tell us a lot whether or not we were just smoking hot back in Feb/early March and if this team can do some real damage come playoff time.

When was the last time the suns beat an above 500 team that was not missing a key starter? Seems like forever.

they’ve definitely gotten some breaks with other teams missing key guys, and usually, I would be leery or questioning if we were as good as our record because of it. But in a season like this, with so many Covid and other health issues likely happening because of the quick turnaround, as this squad grows together, the only thing I care about are Ws. Proof will be in the pudding soon enough in the playoffs. I just want to freaking get there after such a long time out of it.

No surprise Jae Crowder starts.

I'll be interested to see how this works on the road trip. I know Frank wasn't THE reason we went on the en fuego streak, but his addition to the starting lineup and the ensuing rotation did seem to be humming along nicely until he got planted back on the bench.

Tip-off coming up soon.

When Frank Kaminsky started, he showed how good the Suns could be with a prototypical power forward.

Nothing against Jae Crowder but he needs the 3-pointer to fall to be effective.

Ayton hilariously awful in the post

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns have gone to Ayton three times down low without results.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Ayton again a complete waste in the post. 1st attempt gets pushed out and blocked on the jumper. 2nd attempt falls for the Barkley ole and travels

Deandre AyTOn

Crowder came to play
