Trail Blazers @ Suns Wednesday game thread 11-10-2021

[Muggz]

Maybe a revisit of a Frank and DA tandem? Slide DA to PF see what happens.

 

[Chaplin]

He’s had like 7 seasons to prove this and hasn’t

And half those were on a terrible team and he still couldn’t consistently do it.

 

[Evil Ash]

It’s bizarre. I remember seeing rumors and that people here wanted him during the draft and just the thought made me want to puke.

But the guy is a productive player, especially for your 10th guy in the rotation. Doesn’t mean he’s always going to be productive (and likely never has a night like tonight again this season), but he’s always going to give effort and has a modicum of skill that can really help throughout the season.

Yup, he's perfect where he is. 3rd center with very little pressure and can be a spark off the bench

Monty has a problem. Frank has earned minutes so what does he do when DA is back?

In situations... sure.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Anyone remember that guy who used to play for us, I think his name was Devin Booker?

 

[Mainstreet]

Five fouls on McGee. Frank is back in game.

 

[Chaplin]

Crowder is money on that mid range runner.

 

[Mainstreet]

Wow. Frank with the up and under.

 

[Muggz]

Maybe on offense, but ayton is a far far superior defender and rebounder.

Obviously I'm not saying Frank and DA are equal.
But with DA sitting on his butt I have no complaints with the way Frank has stepped up.
When was the last time DA scored 27? I cant remember without looking it up.

 

[Yuma]

Book is our primary rebounder lately....

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns lead 103-92 with 5:28 left.

 

[Finito]

Oh don’t hurt em Frank!

 

[Muggz]

Crowder falls down every time he shoots a three and it works alot.

 

[Chaplin]

Oh for sure. McGee and Frank have made up for DAs absence for sure. We have the luxury of letting DA get 100% healthy. Never had that before, even when Dario played well.

 

[Vacard]

damn Frank, I wish Ayton had those moves. How unstoppable he would be with a few post moves

 

[Proximo]

This stretch from frank is reminding me of that batch of games where Baynes went nuts.

 

[Yuma]

Booker another 8 rebound game.... so far.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

To be fair looked like legit contact from Nance.

 

[Proximo]

Booker another 8 rebound game.... so far.

Nice to see him contributing in some way.

 

[Mainstreet]

Frank with 31 points!

 

[Chaplin]

Nice to see him contributing in some way.

I will take this team winning without Book having to score 30 ANY DAY.

 

[Lefty]

The Frank haters will be quiet tonight.

 

[Chaplin]

Frank is Nurkic kryptonite.

 

[Yuma]

Booker 9,6,8 line so far
