Terrific defense by the Suns in the 3rd period

 

[95pro]

And THATS why ya don't use your challenge in the first quarter. I think Crowder played it well but he did pull the guy into him.

You can’t even tell on the slow mo replays.

 

[Mainstreet]

Oh yes, Jae Crowder.

 

[Absolute Zero]

What say ye now Randle?

What say ye now Randle?

Probably how sorrow thy feeling lol

 

[Finito]

Get the starters out of the game

 

[Mainstreet]

What say ye now Randle?

Randle is so good though.

Was a nice veteran move but the ref was right there and has been around the block before.

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

Great game. That scrappy defense and overall hustle in the 3rd/4th was amazing. Suns will be hard to beat playing like that.

 

[Finito]

Randle is so good though.

he’s worked his butt off and turned into a hell of a player. Not really athletic but he’s kind of like a slim Z-Bo

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Suns 128 - Knicks 105

Suns turned up the defense big time in the 2nd half.

 

[Chaplin]

Is this with Saric not playing at all?

 

[95pro]

No minutes for stix, he’s been awful


Suns win!

Agree. Julius Randle has turned into one heck of a player.

 

[Finito]

Is this with Saric not playing at all?

he played 5 minutes

 

[Absolute Zero]

Randle is so good though.

Not so good on his predictions though.

 

[Finito]

Suns win!

he’s not physically ready for prime time

 

[Muggz]

Payne looks ok.

 

[Finito]

Agree. Julius Randle has turned into one heck of a player.

I 100% did not want him even there was talk. I seen nothing special in LA. Just a solid NBA player at best

but could you imagine if he our PF

It looks like Kaminsky has moved up in the rotation.

I thought it was curious Saric came in the other night when it was already over.

Stop it, i just got wood.

 

[Sunburn]

Nice to see a Suns team that doesn’t back down. We haven’t had a team like that since Barkley.

Imagine what would happen with this team if Taj Gibson cheap shot CP against the boards like Horry did to Nash.

Didn't like half our team get suspended for coming to Nash's defense?

 

[Mainstreet]

Not so good on his predictions though.

I like confident players. If Randle wasn't confident he wouldn't be so good.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Mid season Defense returned and they brought an ass-kicking with it!

 

[GatorAZ]

Payne is the guy that scientists created in a lab to be the perfect backup PG.... Long, pesky and hits open shots.
