Suns @ Jazz Thursday scrimmage game 7-23-20

[Mainstreet]

Cam Payne enters the game. A chance to see him get some minutes.

End of 1st quarter:

Suns 28- Jazz 19

 

[Chaplin]

It’s a weird game but Mikal has been pretty good.

 

[Mainstreet]

Payne looks good hitting a 3-pointer.

Bridges is not settling for outside shots and has nice quickness to the basket.

Some random thoughts at the half:

Ayton, Booker and Bridges all looked good.

Cam Johnson looks bigger and just as quick.

Cam Payne had a few good moments.

Ty Jerome started slow but looked better as time went on. Carter played well in limited minutes.

Saric looked slow.

 

[Mainstreet]

Of course Dario promptly drives it to the basket the minute I said he looked slow. My words have power to make players play better.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton with the 3-pointer. Nice arc on the shot.

 

[Hoop Head]

I like what I've seen in this 2nd half. Ayton draining a 3 and Dario being aggressive inside. Perhaps swapping their offensive roles will help both since neither were that great previously.

 

[Hoop Head]

I like the lower camera angle they're using. I hope they keep that. Seems to be closer to the floor, not as high up.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns not doing a good job getting the ball to Ayton inside. Ayton could get better position down low.

 

[Mainstreet]

Clarkson could help the Suns.

 

[Mainstreet]

Bridges with 5 straight points. A 3-pointer and a dunk.

 

[JerkFace]

Clarkson could help the Suns.

I think we definitely need that “instant offense type of player” off the bench.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Suns 73 - Jazz 66

 

[Hoop Head]

Payne looks heavy. Didn't see the first half so I'm not sure how he's looked but he looks out of shape. I remember him being fairly skinny before.

 

[Hoop Head]

Saric's aggressiveness is really nice to see, even if he picks up a foul down low like that.

 

[Mainstreet]

I really motivated Saric in the second half as he continues to drive it to the basket.

Go ahead and save the post you made that got him going and be ready to repeat it often. If he played like this all season then I'd be driving the "Resign Dario" bus.

It's a gift. As soon as I say something negative about a player they appear intent to prove me wrong.

We’ve all put on some quarantine weight

 

[Mainstreet]

Nice reverse by Cam Payne... impressive. Then a nice assist to Diallo.

 

[Mainstreet]

Jevon Carter with a dagger 3-pointer.
