Keep the pedal to the metal in the third quarter on these guys. No mercy.

Looked to me he was saying just swing it in for the two handed dunk rather than bring it down a little to then go up soft - he easily could have done the former.Wally_West wrote: ↑Sat Feb 20, 2021 8:07 pmHe was telling him to let Morant hit him and then go up after so he can get the and 1.
He’s playing well otherwise, think people forget he’s only played 137 games, 25 games short of two normal length seasons.

Book just had words with Ayton when Book got trapped along the baseline. Looks like he wanted Ayton to flash and come to him, ended it with "trust me!". Ayton sulked a bit, then there seemed to be a miscommunication on defense for a Grizz score and Bridges and DA had words over it.
Suns still up 30, Paul with a nice lob to DA and then a Grizz TO.

Yea funny enough they have started the quarter a little on edgeShelC wrote: ↑Sat Feb 20, 2021 8:24 pmBook just had words with Ayton when Book got trapped along the baseline.

Clearly they are trying to lock in on details and adjustments, like they are obviously not wanting the slightest reminder of the debacle last time they were up big

I like the edgy-ness the the suns have. Caring about details when up big is a good sign, as long as players use it to grow. Good game and effort tonight though. The only thing annoying to me at the moment is how the game/shotclock on the screen is 4-5 seconds behind the actual game right now. Weird.

Yes that shot clock/game clock issue has been bugging me too

Book had a nice rhythm on his 3pt tonight
Felt like most were going in when he released it

Safe to say the Suns took care of business tonight. Up 121-87 and the Suns just set a franchise record with 23 threes in a game.

Usually I ask if we are legitimately good after a few wins. Now we should start discussion just how good we are. Are we in the discussion with Portland & Denver? I think that's definitive. Plus we're only 2 games behind the Clippers & Lakers.
Go Suns!

That was a total shellacking! The first half set a record for largest road lead in a half or something. They set a record for that fourth quarter come back last night. They set a franchise record for threes tonight. To say they are operating on all cylinders would be an understatement.
I have no comments other than Good Job! Keep it going!

Took care of business indeed. Did exactly what I asked in my original post for tonight’s game.
