Suns @ Timberwolves Tuesday Playoff game thread 4-23-2024 - Game 2

That’s what Book has to do against KAT. Gotta cook him.

Gotta make your FTs.

 

[nashman]

BS foul on Royce to give them FTs…

 

[Phrazbit]

this team needs a PG so badly. Depending on Durant to initiate offense as much as we do is just stupid.

I don't think Durant knows another way to play. He's been a turnover machine his whole career... I just never noticed.

 

[nashman]

Holy poo a EG dunk!

 

[Cheesebeef]

I don't think Durant knows another way to play. He's been a turnover machine his whole career... I just never noticed.

That’s why he shouldn’t be depended on to initiate that much.

Beal has to start hitting some shots.

 

[nashman]

Towns in foul trouble is a nice outcome of this first qtr

 

[Phrazbit]

How is Towns surprised he got called for a foul there? He flat out bulldozed Booker there.

 

[Phrazbit]

That’s why he shouldn’t be depended on to initiate that much.

Beal has to start hitting some shots.

He isn't really a catch and shoot guy, even if he is open he usually hesitates and then looks to create his own shot... either that or he decides to go on a dribbling adventure.

Agree on Beal, he is alligator arming everything.

At least Booker is showing some fight, even if his shot is still off.

 

[nashman]

God we end qtrs terrible

 

[Cheesebeef]

Jesus. Beal. Really?

 

[nashman]

Can’t miss that dunk Beal freaking 4 point swing!

 

[Covert Rain]

OMG. Missed dunk. We are so lucky to be down only 3 the way we are shooting.

 

[BirdGangThing]

feels like we're playing bad as we did last game but sota's only up by 3

 

[nashman]

Just when we get a little mo we do something stupid like miss a dunk then give up a layup geesh….

 

[Cheesebeef]

I knew I should have made that bet on Book getting over 28.5 points/rebounds.

 

[Vacard]

HOW U MISS THAT DUNK.

 

[Proximo]

This performance just isn’t good enough.

 

[Phrazbit]

Dang... can't believe Beal missed that dunk.

Ending that quarter with a lead despite playing like absolute garbage for about 9 minutes there would have been incredible.

 

[nashman]

I knew I should have made that bet on Book getting over 28.5 points/rebounds.

Feel like he’s gonna go for 30 but we shall see his shot doesn’t look great but I’ll take a bunch of FTs as long as he’s aggressive that will open up other shooters!

 

[BirdGangThing]

how bout the set on vogel? leaving kd in there with 2 fouls - really glad that didn't backfire

 

[nashman]

So far rebounding well that should be huge if we keep it up, huge letdown in game 1 with awful rebounding!

 

[BirdGangThing]

this is what we wanna see from gordon

 

[nashman]

Gotta hit our damn FTs

 

[Vacard]

Gordon doing hsi best Lillard impersonation

 

[BirdGangThing]

First lead of the night? Or the series? Because it feels like the series
