I have been very much for letting Oubre walk during free agency but the dude is growing on me.
Can we just let him take over TJ's contract and let him walk instead?
Can’t walk dude. Sore ankle

More of that Ayton please...nice and-1 finish over Mirotic
Without that 3-point play by Ayton we probably lose the game. We were down 7 and it cut it to 4.

Ayton defers to Booker too much. I hope the things he did tonight give him the confidence to stop doing it next season.

Two exciting games in a row! Glad Ayton is finally getting a pulse. Now just pass him the damn ball!
Love the heart shown out there tonight. Not sure why they have rarely played hard all season.
Igor coached well the first 3 quarters. The 4th was shaky as hell but he got a win. Good for him and the team

Ayton and the suns are putting it together on D. Offense will get better with improving the roster. Any chsnce we can dump TJ and keep Oubre?

Two best games of the year were both against the Bucks.
And the Bucks' fans are in total disbelief.

Pretty sure I’ve traded away all our players in game threads, haha.

They’ve had it coming to them since the Coin Flip.
First back-to-back losses for the Bucks all season also.

Jackson just said on the radio postgame show that he is still trying to figure out what type of player he is going to be.

If we can keep Booker, Bridges, Ayton, Melton, Oubre, and Holmes, while adding a starting pg, pf, and backup sg, I’d be very happy this summer.

Booker fully expected to get that handoff.
If I was Booker I would have expected Ayton to hand it off too because Ayton almost never drives with the ball. This was an awesome play that we all want from Ayton and he seems quite capable of but rarely goes to. We get on him a lot because of his lack of defense and being too nice, too much finesse, not fouling. He seems to be taking his rookie season cautiously and I think I am ok with that. He has seen all the other Centers in the league now and is figuring it out. He is actually posting great numbers and his talent is obvious. If he starts getting the Amare in his prime drives to the hoop he will be scary. If we can only figure out how to get him the ball.
I went with my sort of boss and he isn’t a basketball fan so, I was giving him the low down during the game. Who were the stars and telling him what I expected to happen.
“The Suns will keep it close until midway through the fourth where the other team will wake up and the Suns will choke.”
I said the same thing about the Lakers and the Suns made me look dumb. I don’t know the stats but it just seems like the Suns are choking less in the fourth quarter lately.
The game started out kind of bad for the Suns and the home crowd was tamer than the Bucks fans. Being down 10 or so to the league leaders and being fans of the last place team certainly took it’s toll on enthusiasm. Then there was that Suns blitz at the end of the half and the fans came alive. The last 1:30 of the game lasted forever because of all the time outs. The entire crowd at the arena stood up on their feet the entire time even through all the time outs. The crowd got real fired up. I was slapping fives with this huge guy next to me I never met. The Suns fans got their money’s worth on this noght. There were quite a few Bucks fans there and I saw about six really nice matching busses outside the arena I figure were bucks fans bussed in in some sort of road trip. Bummer for them.

Just got finished with this one. As others have said, Ayton has been terrific on both ends for 2 straight games.
Also, if the contracts are close to equal, games like this are why Oubre is probably a better keeper than TJ. He doesn't quite have TJ's offensive upside, but TJ never impacted the game defensively like Oubre has the ability to. Also, from a culture-building perspective, I'll take Oubre's energy over TJ's somnambulist disposition.
