Game Day: Suns (21-15) @ Grizzlies (16-20), Wed 1/7/25

Post by Superbone »

Time: 6:00 pm AZ (5:00 pm PT/8:00 pm ET)
Place: FedExForum, Memphis, TN
TV: AZ Family 3TV/NBALP

I just watched Cam Spenser score the final 5 Grizzlies points to beat the Spurs by 1 Tuesday night. Morant was doubtful and didn't play. Jamaree Bouyea remains out for the Suns due to concussion protocol. Hopefully, Allen's shot returns. The Suns owe these guys as we lost to them by 1 on our home floor back in October.

That’s crazy. No excuses, we need to take care of business and beat these dudes into the ground. Tired of this moral victory cope we keep saying after these loses.


Anyways, we gonna lose by 31.

126-54 grizzlies win.

As always, thanks for making the Game Day thread. Memphis is a team we "should" beat, but after the last two epic battles, I could see it being kind of a trap game. Hope the guys come prepared and give a good effort. Curious to see whether Grayson shows signs of de-rusting; he had such a strong early season and it's been rough watching him since then.

Other than not shooting the ball well, Grayson looked pretty good last time. I mean, yeah, his offense is important to us but he got his hands on a couple steals and he looked good defensively and handled the ball well.

Memphis did play last night, so on 2nd night of a b2b. That should help.

Ty Jerome is still out, so we just have to keep a lid on Jock Landale.

It is promising to see Oso consistently cook bum Centers.

Strong close to the half 65-47, a lot of good ball movement and shooting and hustling on defense. Still giving up too many offensive rebounds tho which may be why Fleming saw some minutes. Real good minutes from our bench again.

Can someone explain the step through rule to me and how that’s not a travel? Hate it even when we get away with it.

It feels like Royce O'Neale has bricked ten 3s tonight. (He is actually 2-7.) He keeps taking these 3s from WAY behind the line, which I would not do if I were bricking all my 3s. Just a thought.

We are also getting Bad Booker tonight, shooting just 6-15 and 1-5 from 3. Grayson Allen and Brooks playing well though.

We are only up by 20 something. Better figure out who’s to blame.

Booker is playing fine, making good passes, playing good defense…it’s just the 3s lol smh. I’m past “this is a fluke”, until he shows otherwise, his three is completely gone and I have accepted it. Maybe next year…or the playoffs?
