echoing my same msg from last game, Suns ain't the team you want to be facing at less than 100%
Let's Go !

Suns ain't the team you want to be facing at less than 100%

You’d much rather face them at 100%, when Chandler and Ariza are available.

[ShelC]

We better win.

I'm just all in on the Defense
Some of you guys mentioned potential mismatches we have on offense and I think we should be able to have success there but I just focus on who we have to stop. I expect our wing trio to do a good job again this time on Beal leaving their supporting cast Green ? Sato ? M****f ? to hurt us and I like our chances. Igor focus has been trying to keep teams under 100 iirc

Defense is what has keyed the win streak so far, and defense will be the key to making it 5.

[bajanguy008]

well the announcer just butchered Igor's name

[Split T]

So Satoransky/Beal/Ariza/Green/Bryant is what Washington is starting? We should win this game

[Xylus]

Defense not impressive so far

[bajanguy008]

Defense not impressive so far

true they came out like a young team.....
We have won 4 in a row and they don't have Wall , we are suppose to think like that not them lol but early days

[ShelC]

Ugly start. We're choppy on offense, too many guys picking up their dribbles and trying to make tougher passes than they should be. Booker's the main culprit. Teams are waiting for him to make the pass over the top on the PnR with Atyon and they get it nearly every time. I also think he needs to look to be more of a scorer and really turn the turn with some burst and get to the rim. He has to be that off the dribble threat for us. He trying to pass off screens every time.

TJ had a great poke away steal and finish at the rim. Melton's looked solid on both ends and is gaining confidence but has his rookie moments.

[Maldonado]

Ayton showing some effort

[Xylus]

Ayton with 8 and 6 already

[In2ition]

Ayton with 8 and 6 already

Honestly, he hasn't even played that well so far. Better as of late though.

[Xylus]

Please guard the 3-point line..

[Flagrant Fowl]

That's a dangerous foul by Baker.

[bajanguy008]

well I still seeing us as being a little "too cool for school" so far tonight
not many deflections so far or making Wizards uncomfortable on offense, 34 pts not good

Ayton was hustling more than anyone else that quarter which is a change

[Flagrant Fowl]

This is the Oubre I was expecting. He's been getting burned off the ball all game. It's almost like the Wiz know something about him.

[Xylus]

Crawford needs to cut it out with these passes in heavy traffic..

well I don't expect him to be bad for us but yes too many off ball lapses probably getting caught cheating on their sets
