Booker doing his best impersonation of never having seen a basketball before.
Glad I am not the only one noting that Booker is not in the library.
Bad shots, bad passes, fumbling the ball, stupid gambles on D.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

Ayton's D has been flawless early in the 3rd.
It really has. He had a nice play where he showed help then fell back to Alrdige seamlessly and didn't surrender an inch of daylight.
He had a nice play where a Spurs guard drove into the paint and Ayton orbited Aldridge like the moon to prevent the passing lane.

Lol, that was obviously out on the Spurs.
Loving the hustle tonight. LMA is having an off-game.

Devin Booker strikes again. I'm cool with benching him for this game.

Booker really just tried to throw an entry pass into Ayton from halfcourt.

He tries to throw an entry pass from the top of the key and then stands there on defense watching the other team score.

Overall, nice third quarter. Now let's see if they can hold serve.

What a great quarter that was. I cringe every time Booker plays point, expecting the turnover every time.

Guys, I can appreciate bad play as much as the next guy, but the team has only won 2 games, and has a double-digit lead on the Spurs heading into the 4th quarter. Thats exciting. The shot by Crawford at the end of the 3rd was ridiculous.

I'm pumped!!! It's been a really fun game so far.

Ayton needs to learn to come to the ball

Marco is torching Booker on D. Book is just so so bad at navigating screens against a crafty player.

You'd swear we were down 20. I had to work late and just got on to see the score and the comments. Jeesh. You guys are a bunch of ledge jumping negative Nancy's.
We're up 17 on the Spurs for Christ's sakes. We moan about empty stats and then when ones that don't matter occur, we put so much weight in them you'd think Booker is -30 in the +/- tonight.

What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Book is going to finish the game with 10+ assists. But frankly, his passing has been really bad.
