Game Day: Suns (48-19) @ Lakers (37-30), Sun 5/9/21

I’m not sure going big will help LA against us....allows us to put Drummond in the pnr...I’ll take CP3 eviscerating Drummond. Craig vs AD obviously isn’t ideal, but we don’t really have another option.

[Mori Chu]

So their plan is to go big, eh? We'll see how that works out. Personally I love it for us. Just try to keep up with us for 4 quarters playing Drummond and Davis, go ahead.

Ugly start.

Welcome to Pound Town.

Aaaaand this is everyone's nightmare. 2 fouls on Ayton 4 minutes into the game.

[The Bobster]

Second foul on Ayton, so now they'll be trying to find an answer for Davis and Drummond with Kaminsky, Crowder, Craig and Saric.

[Split T]

Maybe we are throwing this game, haha

[Split T]

The refs seem to be getting ready for a Lakers first round matchup...letting LA be very physical

I was listening on the radio. Were they legit fouls or just “let’s get Ayton out of the game for Lakers sake”?

Nice technical foul on Payne after Harrell tells the ref to call it...

[Mori Chu]

Super chippy game already. Lakers getting a lot of open looks from 3 and good passes to big men under the basket. All of our shots are clanging out. What we're doing isn't working so far.

The first was legit. Drummond pump faked him into a foul. The second was a pretty soft slight touch in the back on an offensive rebound. That kind of stuff happens on nearly every missed shot.

For yelling all ball? And they called it after Payne had already turned and walked away...stupid

[virtual9mm]

Anyone else see the obvious offensive foul (forearm shiver on Booker) that wasn't called?

[djy2j]

Suns look confused on offense. Lakers double team with f Booker working to perfection

Torrey Craigs shot has not been there the last few games

[Flagrant Fowl]

I'll buy a beer for the next Suns player who shoots a layup.

[Shabazz]

Really don’t know why James Jones didn’t prioritize getting another big. It could be our (early) undoing. Frank’s not gonna cut it against the Lakers.

[Split T]

Yeesh, the Lakers D is completely confusing us

I was like WTF with Torrey Craig guarding AD

[djy2j]

Might have to throw Galloway out there. Craig is an absolute liability out there
