Game Day: Cavaliers (25-15) @ Suns (20-20), Sun 1/8/23

[Flagrant Fowl]

Imagine your reaction two months ago if I told you the Suns hadn't made a single roster move and Landry Shamet was starting at point guard. Oh, and some people think Monty Williams is the biggest problem with the team.

[Shabazz]

I don't think ownership has much to do with it. I think we have a tight knit group and aren't going to just bring in a rando just because he's a guard. They're either going to bring in someone they're familiar with who they think can help or go with what they've got.

I know you’re speculating on what the Suns are thinking, but this is nonsense. We’re trying to protect the sensitive chemistry or a team that’s won like 4 of its last 20 games? There are zero active PGs on the roster. This is insane.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Yeah, this is essentially negligence at this point without knowing of the transaction limitations, if any, placed on Jones.

[Shabazz]

I thought Saric did really well as a starter a few games ago. I approve.

He was just OK, but the team got off to a brutal start with that lineup.

[Wally_West]

Wow nice pass from DA to Craig

[Wally_West]

Shamet just should’ve went to the rim instead of trying to force it Mikal

[Flagrant Fowl]

It's weird how no one has an issue with Monty's offense when the players actually make their open shots.

[The Bobster]

I've seen enough of the turquoise uniforms.

[The Bobster]

So it's going to be a "No-Defense Night" apparently.

[Superbone]

Seriously, though. Why are we not signing a guard to a 10-day? we’re missing our starting backcourt and our backup PG.

You’re right, it’s Ronnie Price time!

Let’s go, Ronnie!

Marcus Banks anybody? I just started watching. Very aggressive Ayton to start. Love it!

[ShelC]

Impressed with Mikal's shotmaking tonight. Creating a bit more off the PnR than usual.

[ShelC]

I really wish Monty would let DWJ bang one of his daughters instead of Landry.

[Mori Chu]

It's about that time where we give the game away.

[ShelC]

Yea we keep hanging tough but don't have the horses to really make the push and build/keep a lead.

[ShelC]

Just gonna leave this here

[The Bobster]

Nobody is going to convince me that Damian Lee is a rotation player for a playoff team.

[The Bobster]

And this quarter has been like watching NBA vs G-League.

[LazarusLong]

Played well for three quarters.
But fourth quarter ...

[The Bobster]

Who were we bidding against when we signed Landry Shamet to that contract?


Ungh.

[The Bobster]

I have to disagree with EJ - you're not looking to sign a player to replace Booker or Paul, you're looking to sign a player who can help you more than the stiffs they're running out there every night.
