Also can we talk about what the hell is going on with TJ? This seems to be more serious than just ankle soreness. You don’t miss a month of games with just ankle soreness. Seems like he’s missed a billion games. Have they done any MRIs? This isn’t good.

He has an ankle bruise.

Cmon man.

I hope Melton being back means we've seen the last of regular rotation minutes for Crawford. There's just no upside to playing him over Melton/Okobo any more.

There’s an upside to playing him over Johnson.

Jackson is being benched for Oubre.

Horrible move. Start Jackson at PG. He's a better shooter than Tyler Johnson, and does not deserve to be benched after playing well. Play your five best players.

[Split T]

I think we need to give Tyler Johnson more of a chance...he’s shot terribly in the two games he’s played for us, but historically he’s a better shooter.

I have no problem with Jackson off the bench. Oubre makes more sense as a 4 as he’s longer.

[carey]

Oubre probably should have been starting before now.

It’s bridges going to the bench, not Jackson

Gambo got it wrong, he said it was Jackson. This makes even less sense. You bench Bridges and still have no scorer off the bench.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Still not pretty, but at least they're playing with energy.

[Split T]

I imagine they’ll make a quick sub, Bridges for Jackson, and bring Jackson back with unit 2. I don’t like taking Bridges out of the starting lineup though

Cavs are real bad, we should win this pretty easily by just playing hard

I mean....you'd think but the Suns are rather counterintuitive sometimes.

Why Ayton’s first instinct isn’t to attack when he gets an offensive board is concerning

I was screaming at him through my TV to take it at Chriss, but instead he turns it over on a pass out to Bender at 30' from the rim.

[LazarusLong]

Absolute crap.
Suns go up, 14-7, Cavs look in disarray.
Then the team eases off the gas pedal and now Cleveland is up 20-16.
Just ridiculous.

A lot of that was due to Booker going into his homeless man's version of Harden once again.

Luckily Oubre's energy kept things under control (relatively) and now it's 28-23 after 1.

[Split T]

Chriss just got blocked by Crawford

[Flagrant Fowl]

Tyler Johnson has had a very nice game so far.
