I just finished he first quarter. Ayton making Valencunous look like a star with a near double double already.

That was not a good shot from Book...I know 2 for 1, but a 35 foot shot isn’t the answer.

Dammit Book
That's an easy 3 to end the half

Ya solid stuff. If we can keep Valunciunas off the glass, this is a win.

It was more a case of him going to help on defense and nobody else being able to keep Steel City 128, Univ. City 127 off the offensive board.

He had a good 5 minute stretch to end the half after pussyfooting his way through the first quarter and a half of the game. Really, the whole team did. Chris should just take the night off, not playing well again tonight

Was not just that. DA had plenty of time to come back and crash the boards. Instead he was content just watching from the perimeter

If you're expecting your center to go and help defensively and then get back and block out somebody that big, you're not going to find anybody in the league who'll do that consistently. Valanciunas is just too big.

I just watched four Suns battle Valanciunas under the hoop as he got another put back. I was thinking, where is Ayton?! Then the camera pulled back and Ayton was the only Sun hanging out on the perimeter.

Why isn't there a dissection of Booker's defense every time he makes a mistake? Every time he can't keep a player out of the lane?

That’s fair...I think it’s mostly about expectation. For the record, I’m not gonna get after Ayton for not crashing the boards when he switches onto a perimeter guy. I think the Valunciunas boards are on the suns other defenders.

Good D by Clarke on that lob. Book probably should have shovel passed that to Ayton...though Ayton catches lobs better than other passes.
