I hate that Ayton is making every inbounds pass after magic made buckets.

I said that all year last year. It never changed.

And that they have him setting picks 25 feet from the basket.

Book hit that open three, but I think Rubio should have tried to get that alley oop pass to Ayton. The defense had committed to Rubio at the last second. He has to get that pass off. Ayton is the tallest and most athletic guy in the lane at that point. Put it where only he can get it and let hom throw it down

4 guys collapsed on Ayton. Booker was all alone at the 3 point line. Rubio made the right decision.

YES. LIKE THAT.

I didn’t think that was an offensive foul, but it wasn’t a foul on Baynes. Bad challenge though as Birch made the shot anyways.

Couple nice finds by Book and DA making himself available.

Ayton just had a perfect opportunity to take his first 3

Ayton has been pretty good defensively tonight. He’s hard to score against in the post.

1st pick generational talent coming off the bench.

Oubre’s 3 point shot has looked pretty dang good lately.

Yep. I told him to shoot it through the TV, but I guess he didn't hear me. He also didn't even put an eye on the basket when he caught the ball.

Strong end to the half. Up by 10, score of 58-48. Book has 16 and Oubre 13. Rubio has 6 assists and looks frisky. Ayton 6 and 5 off the bench.

I really like Bridges and almost always feel good about his play even if his shot is sometimes off.

Agreed. Book really turned it on towards the end of the half. He's not gonna let this team lose tonight if he can help it.

That was a nice first half of focus and intensity. Lets see if they can do it for 24 minutes.

I hadn't really realized that Markelle Fultz is starting to find his way and is actually having a pretty decent season. Still a big disappointment as a former #1 pick, and he's shooting just 25.4% from 3, but I'm happy to see that he's starting to figure things out. I really felt bad for him given that he seemed to suffer some depression and doubts about himself as an NBA player.

I like Bridges, but he is what he is. He'll be a reliable fourth guy his whole career and that's great if the three guys ahead of him are elite. Right now the Suns have one elite guy ahead of him and three guys who are probably above average.

I thought Bridges was mostly untouchable during the summer, but there shouldn't be any hesitation to move him in a deal for another elite player.

Good finish to the half. We look our best when it’s through booker and ayton.

What was benching him meant to achieve?

Not only did Fournier push off Booker to get the back door but he was not even close to shooting. What a joke of a call.
