Suns @ Raptors Sunday game thread 2-23-2025

[Mainstreet]

The Suns win the challenge, but couldn't the referees make the obvious call?

 

[Mainstreet]

Bradley (27) likes starting a lot.

 

[Yuma]

time to go enjoy this weather - work on my latest klunker

The Suns?

 

[Mainstreet]

The foul called on Booker leaves me shaking my head.

 

[BirdGangThing]

yeah i can't watch this ish - i can listen to it in the background but I got better things to do with my life man - geez

 

[Yuma]

I was just telling my wife, literally the first thing they teach you in basketball is to not leave your feet unless you are shooting. Never jump up and then look to pass. IDK, how many times the past few seasons I see the Suns do this. It's crazy.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns having trouble turning the corner.

 

[Mainstreet]

Raptor's 3-pointers (19-34) are destroying the Suns.

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Suns are trash. So hard to watch.

 

[BirdGangThing]

worst part about all this - I bet even drake is laughing at us - like "damn it sucks to be them"

 

[Yuma]

That is utter destruction! Was that 5 or 6 threes in a row?

 

[Yuma]

SIX made threes in a row! Smoked us.

 

[BirdGangThing]

we should charge teams for coming in and building their confidence and beer sales - we're like that team that plays the globetrotters

 

[Yuma]

They are putting MORE time back on the clock? Can we just give up at this point and concede?

 

[Mainstreet]

[Yuma]

This was a tip your hat to them game. 7 straight threes. Sad.

this was a get your shoes coat and hat tooken game - they're probably throwing our sneakers on the telephone wires as we speak - blazers - spurs - raptors - all whooped our ass - I have a way with words but this patheticness is beyond illustration

 

[Hoop Head]

Leander is awful. He's saying Toronto can celebrate being the talk of the basketball world after beating the Suns. The 13th team in the East beating the 11th team in the West isn't anything to celebrate or talk about. Two lottery teams facing off means there isn't a favorite or a surprise win.

I can’t do this.. how did we not blow this thing up at the trade deadline..

 

[BirdGangThing]

beal turned into butler and we still suck

These Suns were huge Eric Bledsoe fans. I don't know if he ever had an assist without jumping. To his credit he was super athletic but he was so frustrating to watch at PG. I think his time here helped me learn to ignore those moves.

Too much Waffle House. They spent the trade deadline in the bathroom thinking the queasy feeling was from the cook not washing his hands instead of the team they assembled.

 

[Mainstreet]

As a fan, it feels a lot like punishment, as the Suns didn't even replace Nurkic at center.

We didn't create this team.

Lunacy and stubborn leadership
