Go Suns!!!

Dis • cuss

Spoiler alert, he’s not really any different than when he was here…on the court at least.

My hope for this game: CP3 logs less than 25 min in a win, and not due to injury.

Thanks for the specifier.

Remember the game in Detroit last January? The Langston Galloway game. He was 5-8 from 3 for 17 points in 11 minutes and the Suns blew a big first half lead. That wasn't much fun.

I'm sure the TV guys will mention Booker being from Michigan, but let's see if they bring up that he's 0-5 for his career in Detroit. The Suns also haven't won in Detroit since 2014.

Yikes, that’s kinda embarrassing. Need to take care of business. Seems like a troublesome game though…first half of a b2b, Morning tip off, bad team that’s weirdly had our number…I don’t feel great about it.

Wow "FF" coming through with the cold hard facts lol

Now has me looking at this game different as Pistons have had their moments this month beating Bucks, Jazz and the Raptors in their last game on Friday and we know Raptors just gave us a run.
Cade seems to be showing his potential now but their schedule reads like a young team. It's either feast or famine, get a solid win or get blown off the court so ideally as EJ gonna probably say during the broadcast "We don't wanna let these guys hang around cause then they will start to believe they can win"

Still smh at the info from "FF"
Interesting....

Well hopefully the guys do play like they've addressed it

Look sharp so far, shots are falling, better ball movement. Book and Cunningham going at it a bit and Mikal is 4-4 I think. They're locked in to start.

DA hurt. Lovely

Pistons hanging around because everything is falling for them. DA came out after stepping on Book's foot and won't return so JaVale is getting more minutes at the 5 and Stix came in to replace him at the 5 after getting minutes at the 4. Biyombo out there now with most of the starters at the end of the 2nd.

Monty experimenting with some lineups against a smaller Pistons team - had Paul, Payne, Shamet and then Wainright and Javale/Stix out there for a stretch when the Pistons had Lyles at the 5.

Missed the start, looks like Book has that mid range game working today. Payne looking better lately and that was a nice play to end the half, just missed the finish.

Here's the play where he turned his ankle

Ayton's injury looked pretty light. Maybe he'll miss a few games, but I don't see much to worry about.

Cunningham doesn't seem to be bothered by Mikal at all. It's pretty impressive.

Devin Booker is such a special player. He just brings it every night. Makes scoring 30 points look so easy.

Nice to see Payne having a good game. JaVale is also stepping up nicely to fill in for Ayton.

Wow, awful tech on Cade

Great sequence of Booker with the put back dunk followed by a great Cade dunk. Only to be ruined by a dumb official.

Now Booker is telling the crowd, "It's my city."

Book is cooking!

Refs screwed that one up big time.

Book's on a different level today. He knows about that 0-5 record.
