I don't really feel good about this win. Our offense was great, but our defense is still garbage. The Suns had all the open 3's they wanted. What is the deal? And I counted at least 5 times Bledsoe or Dragic would drive in and everyone just stood there watching them. Biz is going to foul out trying to overcompensate for all his teammates. Clifford can't blame Biz at all.

Good game but remember we were without Warren if he plays game over.

We need to trade Kemba for a legit shooting PG who strokes the 3 ball.

just try him with Neal

After losing a couple we should have won, it helps to win one I expected us to lose. Good win.

Phoenix is averaging 105 ppg and we held them to 95. They are a relatively poor three point shooting team so maybe inviting them to shoot was part of that game plan.

If you can't feel good about a road win against a west playoff team with MKG injured, then I think that's on you.

Like I've stated previously, Biyombo needs between 5 to 10+ minutes EVERY game.

I thought Biz was the guy who really got us going. He was getting rebounds, put backs and he played tough defense. Cody and Al together makes us a bigger and better defensive unit and they compliment each other well. I think Kemba stepped up to the challenge vs Bledsoe in the second half and he made big plays for us. Very good win for the guys.

Would love to have a clip of that inbounds give and go between Biz and Lance at the 8" mark Q2. Biz does a little hop and skip he's so excited.

Plays I loved and want to see repeated in future games: (!)
Neal extra pass to Brian Roberts wide open in corner for 3. 11" Q2
Lance entry to Biz for the dunk. 10" Q2
Al pass to backdoor Zeller for easy hoop 7 secs left Q2.
Biz putback on a Kemba miss. 2:45 Q3
Hendo takes (and makes) a 3! 11" Q3
Biz sets beautiful screen for Neal make. 10" Q3
Kemba finishing a breakaway vs. Bledsoe 5:50" Q4 (second breakaway finish of night for Kemba!)
Lance drop off to cutting Cody for lay in 1:30" Q4
Cody's backdoor pass to Lance from hi post 40secs Q4

I don't disagree but you could say the same, and plenty more about MKG.

He didn't give Biyombo much credit during the postgame interview, citing Neal & Roberts mostly for the spark & the comeback, but I wouldn't say that he ducked the Biyombo questions. He obviously looked a little uncomfortable answering them though. Nobody likes to eat crow or to appear as if they were wrong :lol:
