if those fall all game for CJ we won't win.
He shouldn’t even be in the game.

Are you sure they didn't use IVF?

Nance killing us on the glass again after a couple of quiet games. Our bigs aren't a great matchup for him since he's an undersized hustle big.

Not sure about the closing lineup
And we've had the Should we give DA post ups debate but I think he's showed enough in his bag recently that we could have tried giving him some touches against Nance

1. Nance was killing us
2. Jonas already had 3 fouls

Yep, but Ayton was closing out and switching on guys and Jae was under the hoop with Nance a few times and didn't even touch him. That isn't like Jae at all.

The whole run started when the Suns decided to watch rebounds and jog back on defense. That really pisses me off because they're just getting out worked.

Cam Payne should pay a fine for every missed layup.

Take advantage of Ayton. Take advantage of Ayton. Take advantage of Ayton! How many times does he have to show he's almost unstoppable on the offensive before we feed the beast? He should have 30+ points every game this series. Unreal.

I feel like this team (as a whole anyway) seems to be less hungry than last year. And coming off of a Finals choke, I don't get it.

As for Book
He's more out there so they can't just lock in on CP3
Not sure if he gonna try exert himself in the 2nd half but as this point I still rather him thinking he needs go Hero Mode

As others have said and I've listed as my pet peeve all year long
Getting outworked is just No Bueno
If we gotta see a Monty "they just played harder" quote later I'm gonna be tripping

First half thoughts...

Suns being outworked, period.
Transition Defense has been horrific.
CP with 2 assists? WTF?
Ayton with 2 Rebs? Again...WTF?

If Booker only takes 3 shots and isn't used for ball handling when CP is off, why is he even playing?

Base on how Pels play in the 3rd, we’re either about to be fucking murder, blown own by the most embarrassing margins and be on the brink of being a total joke OR we about stage a fantastic comeback. Yikes.

He hasn't been very active in the 2nd quarter. He was doing a lot of standing around on both offense and defense.
