Ayton really doesn't look all that great in the post. Hopefully next season with some added strength and a summer of practice he might become a threat down there. He has a ton of potential hopefully he puts in the work.

Is this the garbage time lineup? In the 1st?

Last game: 36-9 after one.

Tonight: 34-9 after one.

Almost an exact repeat. Ugh.

To be fair, every game the Suns play is garbage time.

I don't know what is going to happen tomorrow, but something will. Sarver will not be able to take any more of this.

I just turned it off. 1 Quarter was enough for me. I fully expect Igor to be fired tomorrow.
Go Suns!

Very real possibility. Like I said, something will happen tomorrow.

Although that rebound was because Collins contained Ayton and made him take this horrible off balanced turn around jumper.

Maybe if we get to their third string guys Ayton will be able to make some post moves.

Ayton is shooting all lol
No looking to kick out to shooters tonight , he has to get stronger tho as defenders have him fading away and off balanced

Along with the rest of the coaching staff, none of whom will be replaced. We’re going to go the rest of the season with nobody on the bench but players and trainers.

I also don't understand why we avoid taking open three pointers. The confidence of the guys is so low that they hesitate even when they have a good shot.

Bender didn't want to let go of the rim after that dunk - he hasn't been getting a lot of positive photo ops!
