How long does it take to recover from a bruised nutmeg?

#Suns-Celtics about to tip:
Boston starters: Walker-Smart-Brown-Tatum-Theis
Phoenix starters: Carter-Booker-Oubre-Saric-Baynes
Ricky Rubio is in uniform, but doubtful to play due to back spasms.

Booker gets the Suns on the scoreboard for a 2-0 lead.

 

[Mainstreet]

Kanter is entering game for Celtics. One thing he can do well is score.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns are getting good looks but not running smooth without Rubio.

 

[Proximo]

Rubio absence is killing the team. Offense is grinding to a halt.

 

[Mainstreet]

And this. Smart walked and no call.

Wow. Bridges with the long arms reaches around the defender for the basket.

 

[Mainstreet]

Okobo getting some minutes in the 1st quarter.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Celtics 26 - Suns 22

Some ugly basketball.

[Mainstreet]

Back spasms is the report.

 

[Mainstreet]

How important is Rubio? We are finding out.

 

[Mainstreet]

Oubre (3-5) is the Suns leading scorer with 8 points.

 

[Mainstreet]

If the referees are not going to call fouls don't start now. Oubre has been fouled with some no calls.

 

[Mainstreet]

Monty won a challenge. Jump ball.

 

[RockinDaMike]

Wow we actually got a challenge. I honestly didn't think we would get that.

How bad is Ty Jerome's injury? We seriously need a playmaker if Rubio is out.

It's going to be awhile from reports.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns are being out hustled right now.

 

[RockinDaMike]

We usually come back hard in the 3rd, let's see if coach can get these guys in going

This is what I hate about having so much time off. Always seems like teams come out flat when they do.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Celtics 57 - Suns 42

Suns are rattled by Celtics defense.

 

[Proximo]

This has been painfully bad.
