9-0. Good start

Oh wrong team

[TheNewEra]

Team is lazy as hell sometimes. What kind of defense was DJ trying on the pick and roll and soft ass passes all around.

[mkwest]

Bledsoe received a nice ovation from the fans.

1 1/2 mins into the game and the Suns already have 4 fastbreak points. 9-0 hole for the Clips.

[TheNewEra]

this is a damn shame.

[mkwest]

Crawford's FT shooting has been disgraceful this season.

[mttwlsn16]

Got one to fall!

[mttwlsn16]

We are playing like crap

[mttwlsn16]

Is Hollins back tonight? I want no part of mullens getting any minutes again

[mttwlsn16]

I don't like when cp does that swoop up and under thing to draw the foul. Durant does that too.

[TheNewEra]

Wow Paul missed

[Miklo]

Nice game thread! Good luck to all...

[TheNewEra]

Crawford struggling on both ends a needed rest.

[thanumba2clippersfan]

Not playing our best in the 1st. The Suns seems to be playing pretty well to start. Only if we could make some more free throws.

[mkwest]

Nice game thread! Good luck to all...

Same to you

[Sofia]

Dat Griffin jab step

[mttwlsn16]

Gotta give PHX announcers props. Knowing clippers and lakers rent staples to the kings. And complementing us on covering laker banners

Leave it to laker fans to not understand that and to get all butt hurt
