Didn't the Pelicans have a timeout left? Why wouldn't they take it there? Unless the on-screen scoreboard was incorrect.

think the onscreen scoreboard was off, heard a commentator (could only find a NO stream so not sure who it was) said they took their last timeout before evans shot

Marcus and Bledsoe 3/26 FG, Hahaha. This win will keep some dreamers thinking we have a shot at the 8 seed

A win is a win is a win is a win... This next 5 games is the season for us. I fully expect us to 5-0 over that stretch. Every game is winnable for us. If we can get Knight back to give us some better outside shooting I think we make the 8 seed.

They didn't. Missed 2nd FT would have been better though.

Great game by Wright, I think he is a keeper for the next few years.
Suns Win!

It's possible. You're free to think we're doomed like the rest of the pessimistic bunch, though.

Hell yeah it gives us a shot at the 8 seed. Bled and Marcus don't shoot that poorly every game. We played one of our worst games of the season and we beat the team ahead of us. We have a great shot at the playoffs.

Instead of focusing on anything good that the Suns did, I expect all the complainers to complain about their shooting. Teams have off nights. It happens. I expect no one will point out that the Suns played well defensively and grabbed 57 rebounds to NO's 45. Or Bledsoe's 4 steals and Wright's SEVEN blocks. Just focus on the negatives.

The ball movement was great in the first half, but I doubt many of you watched. I don't know what happened in the 2nd half, but they're a young team. They'll figure out consistency. Bring on the 3-5 pages of complaining even though the Suns won. I won't be reading it.

EDIT: Not to mention 3 players with 10+ rebounds. Mook with 13

We have no shot at the playoffs. Don't get your hopes up.

Worst *offensive* games of the season. They were pretty great defensively.

Good catch, a win is a win though, and we should hopefully be getting healthier before OKC and NO.

We have to know that Pelicans and Thunder will play against GSW and Hawks tomorrow. They can lose both.
This win is HUGE.

They were also Missing the best big in the game, There starting PG and Ryan Anderson.
We were missing Len and Knight, we should of won this game easily.

We are not doomed, we just wont make the playoffs. Im just not to get all giddy and happy about some meaningless wins and kidd myself into thnking this team is doing anything. Hopefully a bunch of them are traded in the off season so we can move forward

I don't get what you're trying to say? We won the game. Who cares if it's by 2 or by 20. I could care less if AD was out.
