I think starting Frank might mean they are putting Ayton on Zion. Frank on Hernangomez...of course we’ll probably actually see Frank on Zion, which feels like a disaster waiting to happen, but somehow Frank defended Simmons well.

Because you can only hope to contain Frank Kaminsky ... the Third

In looking up Frank's full name, I just realized he's seven feet. How have I not noticed this before?🤯

Gonna be interesting to see what we decide
I was leaning towards what Indy said to play him straight up and let him get his if anything

Some cross matching going on with Frank guarding Hernangomez and DA on Zion. DA had a nice block on a Zion drive so maybe his size can affect Zion's game. Also had a nice dunk off a CP feed in the lane. We're playing faster too which is good to see. DA and Frank have missed some chip shots inside so we need to clean that up.

Turnovers a problem right now. They're a long, rangy team and getting into the passing lanes. Gotta work harder on offense to get open, can't pick the ball up to make a pass.

The Pelicans TV analyst guy is pretty bad. Makes me grateful to have EJ. The play-by-play guy is good and sounds familiar, but I can't recall his name.

It looked like a foul to me. Pretty sure Ingram hit him with his body, which changed Bookers direction in the air.

Why does Lonzo Ball always play better than his usual self against the Suns?

Feels like this game has some playoff intensity to it.

These Pelicans uniforms have Zion looking like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

Ayton needs to stay on Zion...his defense has been good. As soon as Zion sees someone like Cam on him, he just bullies him to the rim. Zion can’t bully Ayton

Didn’t realize Frank hit 3. Frank, Crowder, Moore and Payne are 7/7. Cam, Booker and Bridges are 0/4
