Game Day: Suns (1-0) @ Nuggets (1-0), Sat 10/20/18

[Flagrant Fowl]

Jokic is a below average defender, and like bajanguy said, he's not the type of player to put up 40. This is the type of matchup where Ayton should excel.

Getting those misses out of the way.

Its funny how shooting changes from the pregame to the actual game. During the game Aytons jumper has a higher release with more extension everywhere in his frame. He jumps higher, releases higher, leans back just slightly. That warm up jumper looked ugly.

Ok , all systems go. This will be a good test as it is never easy playing in Denver , I'm hoping for a decent defensive effort

Murray and Harris could put 50 on us, though. Let's play some D tonight, guys.

[Flagrant Fowl]

WTF is going on with Leander's hair?

[n4th4n]

Is it just me or does DeAndre walk a little pigeon-toed?

[bajanguy008]

I'm digging the Black warmups

[n4th4n]

Devin totally falls asleep on D and gets beat back door. Luckily Harris misses the layup. Before that, Ayton did a good job corralling Jokic off the dribble.

Teams are gladly going to let Ryan Anderson chuck. Gotta get his ass out of there.

[n4th4n]

Jokic scores 7 easy points against Ayton already.

[TOO]

Jokic scores 7 easy points against Ayton already.

To be fair, he's pretty unguardable.

[EDC]

So have we ditched anything that resembles an offensive system and instead decided to go with Booker/Ayton pick and roll the whole game?

[O_Gardino]

We look terrible, but are only down 4. If we can clean it up just a little we can make a run on these guys.

[bajanguy008]

Yea not much movement so far
We're walking the ball alot too like the plan is not to try run with the Nuggets in altitude which is understandable but I don't like us playing so slow

I really hate that he floats like 3 feet behind the line. Get in position and ready to catch the damn ball. lol

[EDC]

Is Ayton gassed already?

[n4th4n]

It's nice that we can replace Ayton with a defensive stalwart like Chandler.

[TOO]

We look flat and tired.

Ugly game so far. Jokic the only person who's showed up
