Suns @ Trail Blazers Monday game thread 2-3-2025

[95pro]

Defense to offense for us.

 

[BirdGangThing]

suns getting down court on offense tonight

 

[Mainstreet]

Maybe time to start Beal.

 

[BirdGangThing]

He changes his predetermined rotation, but he will not deviate from it in game.

yeah im not gonna argue about this imma watch the game - but bud be free balling all the time

 

[95pro]

Book in with 7 seconds smh

 

[Mainstreet]

All they’re doing is extending the defense and playing the gaps.

That means the inside should be open.

 

[95pro]

yeah im not gonna argue about this imma watch the game - but bud be free balling all the time

Yep the rotations are never set. Just confusing for everyone

 

[Yuma]

OK. survived the slow start again.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Trail Blazers 31 - Suns 31

 

[BirdGangThing]

beal and book keeping us alive in the first quarter - bud better get book his minutes cuz it looked like someone stole his bike

 

[95pro]

That means the inside should be open.

It should be but we just never attack it.

Credit where it's due, Beal is playing well right now. Key for the team is just taking care of the ball. They are getting good shots when they don't cough it up.

 

[Mainstreet]

It should be but we just never attack it.

That's why I mentioned it might be time to start Beal.

Trading Durant to the Warriors for Kuminga and their 2029/2031 pick plus whatever contract filler’s necessary is such a no brained if offered to us. Their run is done even with those two guys and by 2029, they’ll be awful.

 

[BirdGangThing]

beal³³

 

[Mainstreet]

It's frustrating when the Suns leave open shooters.

 

[95pro]

The offense is so much better/faster without KD

 

[BirdGangThing]

greyson³

at least the deep ball is dropping tonight

 

[95pro]

Allen has to shoot that.

 

[Mainstreet]

Allen is too slow getting his shot off.

 

[BirdGangThing]

suns contesting passing lanes now

 

[BirdGangThing]

book forcing it now - needs to chill

 

[Mainstreet]

I'm not sure why Grayson is driving the ball when he can't get his shot off when he does.

Wrong thread bud

Maybe time to start Beal.

He should start over Tyus but they made the handshake deal with Tyus to sign for the minimum to be the starter.

Beal is a better defender than Tyus and Point Book has been on a roll as of late. Tyus can still be first guard in but I don't think Ishbia wants to create more issues. We are depending on signing guys like Tyus at a discount so walking back an agreement doesn't reflect well.
