Game Day: Suns (61-14) @ Warriors (48-28), Wed 3/30/22

We can’t hit shit. Warriors missing point blank shots otherwise this would be ugly.

[bajanguy008]

Not a good start at all. I know it’s early but Warriors kinda have the us figured out. Know how to defend us, know how to break down our defense. Some random players always going off. Outside the first game, Suns just play flustered and scared against this Warriors team. To me, the Warriors are the biggest threat to us in the West and there’s a chance we play them in second round. UGH!

Not gonna say scared but can't fault you for this take because I agree with alot of it
We do play somewhat frantic against them as you said because they seem to take away a decent amount of the options in our sets

[Wally_West]

Ayton fucking up but than again so is everybody outside of Mikal.

Ayton has been absolutely dreadful.

[TOO]

Atrocious first half, still leading. Suns good.

[Shabazz]

Feels like one of those games where they are gonna make all their 3s and cause the Suns some trouble. Jordan Poole especially.

Feels like one of those games where Ayton is gonna truck the Warriors.

Yup. You were right an I was very wrong. Ayton playing as soft as he has in a while.

[Wally_West]

It’s a miracle the Suns are up 2. Warriors should feel embarrassed they aren’t up double digits base on how the Suns playing. Warriors are in our heads.

[Flagrant Fowl]

One of those games where Ayton's timing is off. Seems like most times he's reacting too slowly or unnecessarily rushing his shot. Credit the Warriors defense, they're active and doing a good job of playing in space as a collective unit.

At this rate I might have to stay off social media
Suns Twitter been pushing Book hard all month with legit facts and even then haters still would be talking ish so after that first half I can imagine what the chatter like



He gotta get going man 2/10 - (2/6) from 3 is brutal

He used to do the foul baiting stuff on jump shot pump fakes, but that stopped for the most part last season. I think he needs to pull it out against guys like Payton who are very aggressive and handsy. He could've easily drawn a foul late in the 2nd when he was isolated with Payton on the right wing.

[Wally_West]

Ugh. Booker needs to figure it out. I know Ayton is having an absolute shit game but the the whole team is really not that far behind him. Mikal is the only reason why the game is even close.

[bajanguy008]

That is quite the stat there for Warriors v Book
Yikes

One of you guys who resourceful with the stats, when last has Book not scored a 2pt bucket in a half ?

[AmareIsGod]

As a fan of basketball, this is a horrible game. Lots of turnovers and missed shots. Ayton has tried weak ass layups and bunnies at the rim and missed 3 already. DUNK the ball FFS! Booker can't buy a bucket. Klay looks like a guy that hasn't played in 20 months. Bridges has been the lone bright spot. And Crowder.

[Wally_West]

Suns are just getting punked. Shameful.

[djy2j]

Ayton and Booker playing miserable but I think Draymond may have just poked the bear

[AmareIsGod]

Draymond is allowed to run his mouth at our players and act like an asshole. No tech. They had no problem emphatically giving Crowder one though.

[Wally_West]

Draymond straight mocking us right now, talking mad shit. Really hope we have a response after this timeout.

[bajanguy008]

Gotta be honest after seeing that stat for Book v Warriors
I'm watching the game just focused on him

EJ always talks about teams that players look forward too and then there are teams that for whatever reason have your number.
Book body language looks like someone who doesn't enjoy playing this team, probably in his head a little and "hoping", just need to see a couple go down

[bajanguy008]

Well quick timeout by them so yea kinda even if it is just 4 straight points
Draymond will always be the mouth piece and emotional leader for them, I not really phased by that
