Nuggets making us look like the Warriors. Good win nonetheless. Anybody else seeing bledsoe looking like hes winded at the start of the game?

Eric Bledsoe is top 10 in scoring :o

When's the last time the Suns had two blowout wins in a row? I feel like it's been a while.

Top 10 in PER too. Among some VERY good company.

The only starting guards with a higher TS% are Steph, Redick and Korver :D

Bledsoe is killing it.

There were previously times in the game he didn't look like he wanted or could score, now he's taking and creating those chances.

Always can work on his ball handling a little.

Now that I watched the game:

- Bledsoe is just on fire... he's estabilishing his sweet spots and just hitting them like crazy.
- Teletovic played ok, good hustle on boards and he's actually making the offense works with some nice passes.
- I'm really sorry for Len. He's playing in a really bad level right now, cant defend the rim, cant score, cant get boards.
- A little sight of relief for Goodwin... good minutes with great production... running hard to the rim, hitting shots and making smart passes.
- Tucker did a fantastic work on Gallinari. When he's defending like this and hitting corner 3's, he's SO valuable for this team.

Didn't get to watch the game last night but looks like we put together 2 great games back to back. Don't care that the clippers had nobody playing and the nuggets are young. This team needs some confidence and blowing out teams they should hopefully builds some

What are you talking about? I saw the Pistons-Clippers game and Blake Griffin played the whole game in that. Griffin makes a pretty big difference. The Pistons lost that game because they couldn't guard Griffin to save their life at the end and left him open time and time again for wide open mid range jumpers like the Suns did in their first meeting with the Clippers.

No. They've lost the game because they couldn't score for like 10 mins or so.

That and Blake Griffin. He had almost a triple double. 34 pts, 8 assists and 9 rebounds on pretty good efficiency.

Man, I wish we could play Houston and New Orleans sometime soon before they perhaps start clicking. Would like to get those games out of the way now.

He didn't say without Griffin. He said without CP3-Redick. Griffin played against us too but fouled out with two techs.

And of course Crawford going for 37 and Marcus Morris shooting 2-10.

Pelicans will probably get the #1 pick and take Ben Simmons to pair with AD. Then everyone will talk about how we need to have that great strategy like they did.

I wonder how much their fans are liking Gentry about now.

Of course the Suns would win in blowout fashion without me watching it....at least NBA TV is having a rerun of the game at midnight :D


Where's your dedication? :nonono:

New rule: SF88 is not allowed to watch the Suns live. He must watch the repeat until we lose a game, then he will be permitted back to live watching privileges.


Agreed.

Yea but he said same Clippers. The Clippers without Blake Griffin for more than a half and with him for a whole game game are two completely different teams.

Well, we were also missing our starting PF for longer than Griffin was gone. They can at least plug in Josh Smith, Mbah a Moute and Paul Pierce....all more established than Leuer, but the bigger thing is that we had to play Telly a lot, and all those guys for the Clips are FAR better than him. Leuer was 4-13 also. Telly was 2-7 but those two three were at the very end in real garbage time. Those three guys for the Clips were 8-18.

Griffin is obviously better than Kieff, but the drop off to our backups hurts big time as you well know since you compared Telly to point shaving.
