What a difference a PG makes.

What a difference a PG makes.

Yeah like holy cow!

I like that Payton doesn't try to be flashy or over the top in any way. Simple passes, basic drives.

Yes, and I like that he wasn't quick to score. He identified himself as a Point Guard and a passer. Then when he lulled the Nuggets into backing off, he starting driving to the hoop. One of his initial drives was with his left hand. 'Looking' good.

 

[Mainstreet]

A win doesn't help the Suns but I'm really enjoying this game. They are fun to watch tonight.

Imagine how good Payton would be if could actually see what he's doing.

Chriss is awful tonight.

 

[Finito]

Chriss might be the dumbest basketball player I've ever seen.

What on earth was that

 

[Mainstreet]

Reed gets the 3 with a friendly bounce. He will take it.

 

[SirStefan32]

Reed!

It's looking like Bender was the better choice between the two. At least Bender gets it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Reed is finally getting a comfort level. He has 4 points.

End of 3rd quarter:

Nuggets 94 - Suns 89

Warren down on the floor.

 

[SirStefan32]

Looking at the past few games, it may be safe to assume Jackson and Bender are not going to be busts.

 

[Mainstreet]

Apparently Warren is alright. Maybe the wind was knocked out of him.

Missing SO many free throws...

 

[pokerface]

Loss Suns!

 

[SirStefan32]

Let's get Bender and Payton back in, just to make it interesting.

 

[Mainstreet]

Missing SO many free throws...

I didn't think it was that bad but the Suns are 10-21 from the FT line.

 

[Mainstreet]

Bender backs down Harris for 2. He has 21 points.

 

[Finito]

Great game tonight from

Warren, Bender, Jackson and Payton. I really like what I see tonight from these guys. When Bender is agresive good things happen

However noooo defense.

 

[Mainstreet]

I'm so liking Payton. It's only one game with the Suns but he looks like a keeper.

 

[Hoop Head]

This is one of those games I'd like to see them pull out. They can't lose them all, or they can but it wouldn't be good for the players to lose out at this point.

 

[Hoop Head]

I'm so liking Payton. It's only one game with the Suns but he looks like a keeper.

This is the first game the Suns have played this season with an NBA quality PG.

I know you could say Bledsoe was here but he was loafing it.

I'm so liking Payton. It's only one game with the Suns but he looks like a keeper.

You read my mind. I'm already sold on Payton despite playing with a mop on his head!

 

[Finito]

Chandler just on fire can't do nothing about that
