Credit to DA, he's locked down the paint this quarter

DA and Cam leading this impressive defensive effort in the 4th. Promising stuff. Bridges been good too.

Ayton has played his ass off for the last 7-8 minutes and this game went from looking like a loss to nearly a blowout win.

That's why I get so pissed off when he doesn't show up.

DA usually seems to provide lockdown defense in crunch time. Imagine if he could do that all game!

Cam has kinda taken a Booker development pattern. Obviously not to the same level, but he was billed as the best shooter in the draft that couldn’t do much else. He’s shown he has some off the bounce ability and I think his defense is quite good. If his shot was actually as good as expected, he’d be an absolute stud. Just imagine all Cam is combined with being a 42-43% 3pt shooter.
I have no prob at all with this post
You know I always trying to highlight the other stuff he's doing and like I say I get those that might focus mainly on if his shot is falling.
I would have been more concerned if he just seemed to be a one dimensional player as I have no doubt the shooting corrects itself

Oh can't leave out Frank
He did his thing, maybe a couple heat check shots in the 3rd that had me like oh wow but can't blame him for feeling himself a little lol

Great job by the bench guys tonight Moore, Cam, Frank, Nader. This turned into a bit of a grind and they broke it open in the 3rd. Cam and DA were really good in the 4th on defense. Just didn't seem like Jae had it tonight but Frank and Cam were big in the 2nd half. Also got some good minutes from Nader I thought.

Ya his other stuff has been a pleasant surprise...and it’s not like he’s a bad shooter, he’s still above average...it would just be nice if he was a great one...it’s one thing our team doesn’t have.

Game ball to Frank. If he didn’t have the second half he did, we’re not coming away with this W.

Cam with a huge 3 and some great D in the fourth. CP3 did CP3 things.

The un descended testicle every so slightly lowered tonight in the fourth quarter although it was mostly jumpers and open layins. The 3 blocks helped him find his path to the scrotum but the pathetic 2 ftas kept him in the abdomen.

Good comeback win against a decent bulls team

CP3 was a +28, Cam Payne a -21. We need to get Cam going again

Only caught the last quarter of this one, so not sure how/why we got nine down at 3/4 time, but we just ramped up the d and got what we wanted at the other end and put the game away in half a quarter, which is pretty promising. Like others have said, I thought Ayton was very good in the 4th. Also agree that a statement dunk every now and again would be nice!

I’m giving the game ball to the bench and to Ayton. Also, if that’s what it takes, I’m going to start talking shit about him before every game. We looked like a mediocre team for 2 and a half quarters.

They pissed away that 11 point lead pretty fast.
Been a trend early lately.

I just don’t understand why DA seems to go out of his way to not dunk
I’m telling you, he’s punking us. No joke.

If only the Suns had a big guy who could get the ball 5 feet from the rim and make a move to score.

(Besides Frank Kaminksy.)
Gotta give it up to Frank too. He looked pretty good tonight off the bench.

As ugly as it's been, this is a winnable game.
We won it going away. We really locked in on defense to end the game.
