Suns @ Knicks Monday game thread 1-2-2023

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

That’s just terrible effort. Terrible coaching. The Knicks had two separate runs of 14-0 and 18-0 in the first half.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns are 27th in defensive rating since the start of December.

This isn’t talent it’s effort. Monty has lost this team

 

[Mainstreet]

Paul is 0-4 from the field and only 1 assist.

 

[Finito]

Ayton LOVE the 12 points HATE the 2 rebounds

Chris Paul is worthless at this point he brings nothing to the table and Monty will refuse to sit him.

 

[Finito]

At halftime

Paul, Craig and Shamet have a combined 0 points on 0-13

Paul 0 points 1 rebound 1 assist 0/4.

Craig 0 points 3 rebounds 0 assist 0/4

Shamet 0 points 4 rebounds 1 assist 0/5

That’s 3 of your starters HOLY ****

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns need to figure out a way to get the ball to Ayton cutting to the basket. They can't pass the ball inside.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns aren't even bothering to guard 3-point shooters. They are WIDE open.

 

[Mainstreet]

Finally Craig cuts to the basket. Where are the cutters?

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton - 2 rebounds in 22 minutes

Wow. That’s a big deal because we have our supposed good defenders in bridges Ayton Craig and okogie playing.

Yeah, although teams are running off Suns missed shots. Suns aren't rebounding well either.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton got all net on that 3-point attempt, the bottom of the net that is.

This team has just gotten crushed too many times at this point for me to believe Monty can still get them to play hard night in, night out.

Me thinks with new ownership, a new coach is on his way in the off-season where there could be a ton of changes.

People want to keep bringing up GS had bad stretches last year or Boston, but we do NOT have the talent of that Boston team or the title tested resolve of GS… in fact, this team has shown multiple times in the last two years that when squeezed in ultra pressure do or die moments, they completely collapse, losing 4 straight to the Bucks and 4 of 5 to the Mavericks, in humiliating fashion with Dallas.

 

[Finito]

8-0 Knicks run

 

[GatorAZ]

43 points in 32 minutes.

I’ve said it before this isn’t a talent issue it’s an effort issue and that’s on Monty he’s lost this team. They clearly aren’t responding to him anymore.

I don’t want to hear about how Paul brings leadership. At this point he should be a trade chip

 

[Bufalay]

How many picks could the suns get for Ayton? 1 first rounder and 1 second rounder?

 

[Finito]

Next Suns player I see celebrating being down 20 needs to get cut

Lee doing his stupid 3 point thing is unacceptable

James Jones bears some responsibility for not strengthening the team when injuries took their toll.

It gets redundant repeating the Suns obvious weaknesses coming into this season.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Ayton - 3 rebounds in 27 minutes.

 

[Mainstreet]

I wonder why Biz has fallen out of the rotation. He is not on the injury report.

 

[Finito]

Kevin Ray: It’s an 18 point game Suns trying to make a push

Lmao

 

[Finito]

I wonder why Biz has fallen out of the rotation. He is not on the injury report.

They said in PHNX he’s not 100%

 

[Bufalay]

I wonder why Biz has fallen out of the rotation. He is not on the injury report.

Because that’s what Monty Williams does. Just randomly benches players.
