It’s great having a center who can pass and rebound like a man.

Suns playing out of their minds. Maybe they know a trade is coming soon and are super excited. :/

Eric Gordon sure has a lot of 1-8..1-11 type 3pt shooting lately.Could really be devastating the Pels if he was on tonight.

Oh yeah...It's starting to come together.

Don’t worry he normally saves the best for playoffs.

Valentunis would have pushed Ayton inside with just his pinky. Meanwhile, Nurkic played him well didn’t lose any ground whatsoever.

Incoming GB: “ why is Booker still in the game with Suns blowing Pels out by 30” “ such a stadpaddler” etc

He shoots over 39% on 6.6 attempts per game.

He scored 2 HUGE triples in the last game, the guy is clutch.

Looking like 2006 Kobe out there.

Our 2nd stringers are so bad it’s difficult to watch.

Missed the game.

So did they finally run more of the offensive sets thru him? Earlier in the year I mentioned I felt he should/could easily average 7-8 dimes a game once the Big 3 were healthy. It helps those guys do what they do best i.e. play off-ball.

Nice performance, much better on defense.
9W-3L in the last twelve games.

That's why I said lately.He did hit two big ones last game.I'm greedy.I want everyone to get in sync & start clicking at the same time.

Nurk really neutralized Valanciunas tonight.That guy used to look like Hercules vs Ayton.

No doubt. Nurkic is a space eater and a solid counter to a guy who is in the same mold. Ayton, despite being far more athletically gifted, couldn't hold his ground against a player like that. Too much finesse when brute force is required.
