Just letting Portland shoot straight away uncontested 3s is not working out so great Frank. Do something.
This has been a trend for most of the season.

“Personal foul on Number 20 Phoenix Suns”
Was hoping the Suns would get a kinder whistle now that Sarver and Paul are gone, they have not.

Metu should take Okogie’s minutes.

Did you see how badly DA wanted the ball posting up Book at the end there, and they wouldn't give it to him? So typical. :lol:

I bet the refs are keeping it tight because it's a Tourney game.

Different roles and positions. Metu would be more likely to take minutes from Yuta or Little, but as we just saw, he's really the 3rd Center.

Maybe he shouldn't have tried to post up 15-feet away from the ball handler with off-ball defenders waiting to knock away a pass. That was very typical of Ayton.

Umm, the paint is typically the best place to post up.

Glad we traded Camara because I hate those cupping marks.
I respect this take. Idk if I agree but I respect.
Who is on the all-cupping team? Camara, Doncic,…

I mostly mean Okogie shouldn’t play anymore.

Up 56-51 at the half. DA playing an inspired game, clearly putting his best out on the floor with 14 pts, 6 rebs, 3 ast. (0-0 FT!!!). This fuckin guy Reath I never heard of before somehow has 10 on us because we just let a random guy put up a career night on us on the regular.

KD having a great half with 14 and 4 but he kind of cooled off as things wore on. Book has quietly gotten 12 pts and 5 ast, though he still looks a little off to me. I really like the minutes Little is giving us.

Appreciate that folks are being mostly civil about all the DA stuff. I just want the family to get along! *sniff*
