Suns @ Trail Blazers Sunday game thread 1-14-2024

[Yuma]

Of course, the Suns let Scoot Henderson drive the court and score at the buzzer. It's so Suns like.

Needed one more guy to step in front of him and make him go around one more time.

 

[Yuma]

Yep, they came out with more effort than us.

 

[Mainstreet]

Here come the Trail Blazers.

 

[Mainstreet]

We need to come out this quarter with our foot on the gas! We tend to wait and see what happens at the start of the fourth and the other teams come out with more effort!

The Trail Blazers came out playing intense. Suns were like ho-hum.

 

[elindholm]

Come on, Fourth Quarter Suns, not again.

 

[Mainstreet]

Beal called for at least two offensive fouls.

 

[Yuma]

Boy everything that can go wrong is going wrong.

 

[Chaplin]

Yep 4th quarter meltdown.

 

[Mainstreet]

It's pitiful to watch as opponents drive the lane for easy shots.

 

[Chaplin]

Is Vogel even coaching this group? This guy is INCOMPETENT.

 

[Dback Jon]

Yep 4th quarter meltdown.

Perfect example there. No need to slow it down

 

[Yuma]

Here we go!! Their crowd is in it now!

 

[nashman]

Ridiculous slow getting into offensive sets wtf Vogel coach you moron how hard is it to run push the pace tell them speed the fudge up!

 

[Mainstreet]

Portland moves the ball for open shots. It's that easy. Suns play individual basketball.

 

[Proximo]

This is pathetic. Super undermanned blazers should not be a threat.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

yay 4th quarter Suns lol - I don't think we're in any real danger it just sucks when we always burn the sauce at the end

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Geezus, what a joke.

 

[nashman]

Portland moves the ball for open shots. It's that easy. Suns play individual basketball.

Not really but they are just slow as molasses trying to run this offense. Trying to pass it around but everyone just looks out of it so slow and afraid to be aggressive and shoot the damn ball!

 

[GatorAZ]

I’m rooting strongly against Pacific Northwest teams right now.

Suns seem to have picked up the tempo and intensity - whatever was said during the timeout may be resonating

Scratch that

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker double-teamed in the corner up top. Hmm.

Sound familiar?

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

The sorry ass teams like the blazers and spurs balling out on us with supreme confidence is a real problem

 

[Proximo]

Suns are going to lose.

 

[Chaplin]

SAME EXACT THING EVERT 4TH QUARTER! Isolation ball and Book getting stuck in double teams because a) they aren't bringing the ball up quickly and b) NOBODY freaking moves without the ball!!

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

Suns are going to lose.

I'll take that wager - signature for a week?
