We could really use some games against Atlanta, Chicago, and cleveland

8 rebounds for the Suns halfway through the 2nd. Clips shooting 66%.
Re: Game Day: Clippers (21-16) @ Suns (9-30), Fri 1/4/19
Suns aren’t getting offensive rebounds or playing good transition defense, so basically they aren’t playing hard.

If you're giving up 70 every game in the first half it's not hard to figure out what the problem is...

We nearly have as many turnovers (8) as rebounds (9) with 4 minutes to play in the 2nd

You let a team feel good about themselves by getting easy buckets and they’ll keep hitting the tougher ones too. Come out with some energy and our defense will look a lot better.

Also, how on earth can Ayton have just 1 FG attempt (which he made) closing in on half time???
Re: Game Day: Clippers (21-16) @ Suns (9-30), Fri 1/4/19
We need a playmaker in the worst way
Re: Game Day: Clippers (21-16) @ Suns (9-30), Fri 1/4/19
Good news: Ayton is shooting 100% from the field.
Bad news: he has 2 points.

Clippers have as many offensive rebounds as we do defensive (6 apiece) - so basically it's 50/50 who gets it after they miss a shot. That's pretty indicative of our effort and intensity in the first half.

Hey Sarver, how's that "no GM" working out for you?

interested to see if they change the starting 5 for the 2nd half (they wont).
We keep playing into the clips hands by forcing everything through booker. We need to run more stuff off ball for him.
That and we cant shoot or defend.
Can we just force feed Ayton in the 2nd half and see what happens. We are already down 30ish

Just wait until 2019-20 when he tries out his new “no coach” strategy!

We could...if we had someone on the roster who was capable of getting a clean pass into him.Danimal wrote: ↑Fri Jan 04, 2019 8:10 pminterested to see if they change the starting 5 for the 2nd half (they wont).

I think I might start Oubre instead of TJ. Love TJ offensively, but I think we need Oubre defensively in that lineup. He’s also a better rebounder. Let warren come in and be the the go to 6th man.
Re: Game Day: Clippers (21-16) @ Suns (9-30), Fri 1/4/19
I think ultimately TJ is a sixth man, but I'm not sure I would start Oubre over him.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

We need a real PF.
