Blazers looked to go through Ayton when they trailed by two.
Missed two jumpers.
#Suns up eight after Durant hits FTs.
There are the moments, for this #Blazers team, they need Ayton to hit those to keep the pressure on the other team.

Blazers up 23-9 in the 2nd quarter and it’s a 2-point game. Shots stopped falling for this KD-less group outside of Book, and the drop-off in defensive effort injected some life in the building – 11:00 PM

Defense has kinda slacked off to start this 2Q. Blazers are 27th in 3P%, but they get up a lot of attempts. Booker conceded a pair, and the Blazers are 5-for-10 from deep so far. 3P defense needs to lock back in – 10:53 PM

Might see more of that moving forward with someone else bringing the ball up.

Ball is MOVING so far, and the defense is locked in. Quality of opponent obviously plays a factor, but this looks like a much-needed “get right” game for the Suns so far – 10:26 PM

Much better defensive effort to start and it’s allowing the Suns to run, which they have more intention with.
Two very good things! – 10:20 PM

Bucks don’t have the ammo for a major trade, but I’m not sure why people are acting like they have *nothing*…your mileage may vary on Bobby and Pat, but they also have the ’24 Blazers second (#35), MarJon, and (gasp) AJax if they REALLY wanted to make a play for a vet wing. – 8:38 PM
