I really fucking hate the Lakers, my friends. The thought of getting swept by them makes me sick.

You need to develop a stronger stomach in order to be a Suns fan in the Sarver era.

Ayton really needs to score 30

last game they blitzed Devin relentlessly when we tried pick n roll so if they really gonna guard Ayton with Kuz he has to abuse him and make them bring in one of the old centers

Igor has Ayton on Lebron and JJ on Javale, deliberately.

I honestly have no problem with this, Lebron has been playing more bully ball than anything since the all star break
I respect Bron but Ayton/Holmes playing a step off giving him the 3 rather than the drive is not the worst plan ever, there are still games when his jumper is an issue so let's see how it plays out

I like it. They even subbed in Moritz and Ayton stills has LeBron.

Most enjoyable first half to watch all year. Love them running the offense through Ayton. They still don’t have a clue how to pass to him but the mentality is there.

Ayton has had some really nice moments on both ends. Doesn’t have many rebounds but I still think this is one of his best games this season.

The last few plays were especially satisfying to watch. This team can be so much better than their record.

I think an engaged Ayton is a phenomenal player that you can build around...just like you could with an engaged Dwight Howard.

like I said yea Bron wil hit some 3s but I think he takes some terrible ones at times
he's at 3/7 which is solid but if Bron is going to take double digit 3pt attempts , I will live with that rather than see him living in the paint running through ppl....

Good idea for anyone having to watch the Suns, let alone anyone losing to the Suns.

I don't understand these calls, were Booker is in the act of shooting but they call it on the ground and then Josh Hart gets an and one when he's on the ground.
