Suns @ Knicks Monday game thread 4-26-2021

[Cheesebeef]

Well, this isn’t the best start.

another wide open missed three for Bridges.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns can't go through the motions if they hope to win.

 

[Mainstreet]

Payne like lightning to the basket.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Our defense has been really bad this entire trip.

 

[Cheesebeef]

I mean, we’re getting boat raced.

 

[az240zz]

Back to one on one basketball. Not a lot of ball movement

 

[Mainstreet]

Knicks are not missing shots but a lot of that is the Suns giving up open looks.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Not liking suns poff odds if they go in playing like this ugh

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton scoreless in 9 minutes while he was in the game. Noel had 4.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Ayton scoreless in 9 minutes while he was in the game.

God he is sooooo inconsistent

 

[Cheesebeef]

Ayton scoreless in 9 minutes while he was in the game.

he was useless.

I like Booker’s game so far.

come on Cam. Every point counts when you start the game down 15.

 

[Cheesebeef]

God he is sooooo inconsistent

he played well for 3 quarter last game, but other than that and the Milwaukee game, he’s again fallen way back of what we needed against the Spurs, Celtics, Sixers and now Knicks.

chipping away here though...

 

[Mainstreet]

Cam Payne with a 4 point play.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Let's make a run suns

 

[Mainstreet]

he was useless.

I like Booker’s game so far.

come on Cam. Every point counts when you start the game down 15.

It's sad when Noel outplays Ayton.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Knicks 36 - Suns 29

Well could be worse... keep it close suns

 

[Cheesebeef]

Stupid freaking Booker ball ISO at the end as usual gets us nothing.

come on Monty. You HAVE to adjust there. At least vary the final possession strategy. Booker is not LeBron, Kobe, Jordan, or any of the best ISO guys who can beat anyone including double teams at the end of quarters.

 

[Mainstreet]

Well could be worse... keep it close suns

If the Suns are any good, they have to play like it.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Just settling for 3s. I’d get a TO immediately and read this team the riot act.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns can't hit open shots. They have to take it inside.

 

[Cheesebeef]

I’ve got an idea, let’s shoot more threes.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Ayton isn’t even trying out there.

and instead
Of calling TO immediately when it looked like we came out flat in the quarter Monty let’s the lead balloon all the way back to 15.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton looking like an ornament on offense and defense.

 

[az240zz]

Let's just stand and hold the ball. The Suns won by moving the ball,it seems they get a little defense thrown at them and it's one on one.
