Russ'

On the road
And vs. Durant on the same floor?
Phoenix, y'all gonna have a problem tonight
Feel like Coffey or Boston will also have a fun game tonight.

26-4 start.
It was Brodie who volunteered to come off the bench after Beard was handed a starting job. Never tried it the other way around. As previously posted, Harden's plus/minus over the last 10 games have been fairly hideous--35%/23.5 and worst plus/minus except for Tucker.

Or Bones! I think Russ' has gotten to Bones recently coming into this.
Russ' on his way to a triple double, Bones on his way to a double-double...
Durant/Booker/Beal, so far... combined 2-21 FGs...
Oh Boy...

Three steals in a row by Suns. Are Clippers getting too confident and cocky?
We've seen this before. Lead big, lose big.

The Bones Highland squad looks very sketchy. I mean it's still a 33 point lead at the half. If they can maintain in the 3rd, it should be enough.

Only this team makes me nervous to go to bed before the buzzer sounds.

Tactics vs strategy. Win the battle or win the war? B2B tomorrow at The Crypt.
Sometimes you have to retreat from a losing battle to win the war later. Vogel doesn't know whether to spit or go blind. But the Suns need every game. Clippers need just any game of the next 4 to clinch the #4 seed, and have little hope of the #3.
I don't know what I'd do if I'm Vogel, down by 30+ at halftime. If I'm Ty, I keep doing what we're doing, including leaving PG in until Vogel waves the white flag and takes Durant out, who looks totally shellshocked.

PG going soft. Dude needs to stop playing for a foul. And he should not ever be a point guard. EVER. Hyland is so frustrating to watch
PG melting down

Even if we hold on and win the mental collapse is embarrassing.
