Suns have won four of their last five games including taking down two of the best teams in the NBA in the Bucks and Warriors in this stretch.
I think Rubio is the type point guard the Suns need although I'm weary of overpaying for him.
The sideline reporter is super cute.
Good defense for the most part aside from Gobert being too big.
F Joe Ingles and everyone who likes him!
Ayton is big but he’s dwarfed by Golbert he’s huge
Ayton is clueless in pick and roll defense. He consistently does the exact wrong thing.
Suns are playing well. Utah is just playing better. Suns just have to keep attacking Gobert. TJ and Oubre both did it the right way a couple of times. Jump into him!
I don't want to say it but Ayton was intimidated by Gobert inside plain and simple.
The Suns should get him an easy shot cutting to the basket to get his confidence going.
Like how Mitchell gets called for traveling and he doesn't make a peep.
11 of 28 from two, Gobert having a big effect.
Korver pisses me off
him and Reddick, both just push off defenders every play.
Gobert rebounding advantage is real.
I like coming into games thinking we can win rather than hoping we can at least keep it close. Let's fkn get it fellas
I’m at the game. Seen a few Jazz jerseys but haven’t heard anything racist yet. Will continue to report.
We're the scariest team in the NBA right now.
Wow, they're only up 4 but the Jazz are really impressive - run some great sets and execute them well. They've forced us into a lot of bad shots. Let's see if Igor can use that inside intel and get us sharper on D
All I can see is when he gets the ball, defense just stops playing.
Ingles takes his own time and makes a bucket.
Jazz are so good
We are still a year away from being a year away.
Ingles is awesome. He’s one of my favorites just looks like an average guy out there
Ingles is on my list of least favorites
Ayton should’ve just faked an injury and not played in this one...yes Gobert is the best defensive C in tha game but damn this is humiliating, I’m embarrassed for him.
Gobert is a tough matchup for most bigs. He's about to be a 3 time first team All Defense and is likely to win his second DPOY in just a few months. He's a little taller, a little stronger, a little older and a lot longer than Deandre so I'm not too worried about it. Especially since he didn't just give up, he came back and did some good things defensively.
Whats Goberts post defense like, feel like DA could go to work on that flimsy body
uhhhh I got some bad news for you
Gobert is a perennial DPOY candidate. Ayton isn’t going to be able to handle him. Hopefully he can at least keeps him off the boards. That’ll be a success.
can't let gobert beat you on both ends of the court.
God damn the Jazz have gotten so many open looks - Snyder is a wizard
Gobert is having a five course meal in the paint jesus
is that gobert or shaq?
Gobert 18 & 20
Ayton 2 & 9
Gobert is a monster
Ayton plays like he has low testosterone
35 to 52 rebounds. How much longer until we can safely say pf is our biggest hole on the team?
Rudy Gobert and Deandre Jordan are just one of a kind players. They’re so intimidating. Suns had a lot of easy shots in the paint where they simply missed. Gobert didn’t even attempt to block a lot of the shots, but when you have in the back of your mind that Rudy Gobert is around, just forget it.
The Jazz set a ridiculous number of screens on offense - getting too many open looks so far
I can't believe I'm saying this, but our 3 pt shooting is keeping us in it
It's crazy that this is the same team that lost 17 straight.
we play so much better when gobert is off the court
Mitchell gets more attention, but Gobert is clearly their best player, or at the very least their most impactful one.
Seeing these Jazz sets gives me more confidence of what our offence can be if Igor has more time to settle and work with a roster
This Utah team is not that talented but their coach is a genius.
Quin Snyder looks like an evil mastermind
He is the villain in this story.
It is true. Outside of Mitchell and Gobert its 13 average role players. Quins system works. Hopefully Igor can bring that to Phoenix.
A made layup this century would be nice
Man **** Ingles lol. That shot got me heated
How are these gobert screens legal lol
Gobert has completely ****ed us
Gobert has an apartment complex in Ayton's head right now.
God damn Gobert can get a board from anywhere
Jazz played real tight defense all game and it really got under our skin. We lost our composure in the 4th. Unfortunate.
this just in: rudy gobert is really ****ing good at defense
Imagine if Booker played with a defensive god like Gobert they Mitchell gets to do so... maybe Ayton will get there some day
I lost some respect for Ayton tonight. Gobert will shut down every center that’s understandable. He killed jokic the other week. But you have to show some fight on the other end doing the little things atleast. He was out of it from the get go
looks like Ayton got a hit of whatever Bill Walton takes.
Stupid sexy rubio
Allow me to preface this by saying I get Gobert is the best defensive center in the league and Ayton is a rookie.
But Ayton can't allow opponents' to get in his head like that. It's happened a few times this season and it's got to stop if he wants to be a franchise player.
Hope Ayton isn't too hard on himself. You could tell by his shots late that he had his previous misses in his head. He went against possibly the best defensive C in the game in Gobert. Ayton still did some things well grabbing 9 boards, 2 steals, and a big block on Gobert. Ayton has been lights out shooting all year, he's bound to have a bad night. On to the tough road trip.
The Jazz are annoying
Suns made a lot of fun plays tonight but Gobert controlled tonight
The Jazz didn’t come in taking us lightly
Gobert is Lord Business with a full bottle of Kraggle.
Deandre Ayton was very down on himself after the game. Gave himself an F- grade. Said it was the worst game of his career. He told us he won't sleep tonight and he's gonna be dissecting film immediately.
Gobert the world beater
Or just the Deandre rookie eater. Ayton should go into magic. Haven’t seen a disappearance act like that in a long time. That’s what happens when you have a boy play a man’s game. Kid has a lot to learn about maximizing his assets.
Gobert
Should be an all star, no one can dominate a game from Defense like he does. Having 2 bigs was our best lineup, idk why we didn’t go back to it during the 4th quarter. Upsetting, just like the last game against the jazz, we get blown out in the 4th
