Again, Paul over waits for Ayton and takes a bad shot.

They are letting Ayton shoot ft jumpers and crashing everyone else, same thing the Mavs did. Bah, Suns gotta adjust.
Love, Hurts.

Scott Foster called the rip-thru. Now I've seen it all.

Yup. They're letting Ayton try to beat them.

We really need to do better on D. Too many east shots and second chance points.
Also CP needs to aim at the backboard - a lot of shots short

That place sounds dead or scared. Probably both.

Props to Ayton he’s hitting that shot…that 3pt field goals vs 2pt field goals chart was telling though.

Lue is coaching circles around Monty right now. Why is he playing 12 guys? The suns have no depth but just pick Okogie/Bismack and 2 other guys and get it over with. Not much of a difference between 8-12.

This team needs to pop them in the mouth. The Clippers are overly aggressive and the Suns are just taking it

So many missed shots with guys looking at Ayton too long while he's thinking about the rebound and not catching to shoot this quarter.

Everybody is lost.
We will be lucky if we don't get swept in the first round.

Ayton's scoring is a plus, but our offense is all out of sorts. KD and Book not getting any clean looks; so many deflected balls, steals, blocks, tough shots. Clips doing a great job defending us. They seem so deep, like they have an endless fleet of athletic strong wings to throw at us. Bad matchup I suppose. Suns lack of depth and talent past the top-4 is really showing. And Chris Paul again is not really showing up.

Great strategy tbh. Suns are by far the less aggressive team and CP is playing like ass

Is he in the game turning the ball over and missing 10-footers?

We are cooked man, they can match the KD/Book with Kawhi and literally anyone else, just not enough bench to have a real shot imo.
Love, Hurts.

Really confused why the suns thought they could roll into the playoffs with nothing at backup loint
