Pacers @ Suns 1-22-14

[Mainstreet]

This is a game I do not see the Suns winning. The Pacers have the whole arsenal plus they are the best defensive team in the league. Still this should be an interesting game to watch. Also the Suns owe the Pacers big time for making them competitive. The Scola trade gave the Suns Plumlee, Green and a first round pick. See article by Paul Coro at azcentral dated 1-22-14 for more.

Who knows, maybe Plumlee and Green will play out of their minds tonight trying to prove something....

And maybe so will Scola.

This will be an interesting test. I expect Dragic to step up.

This will be an interesting test. I expect Dragic to step up.

Dragic will get suffocated by the Pacers' defense. Pacers will be rotating George, Hill, and Stephenson on Dragic. The only way the Suns win is if they shoot 45% from 3.

Loss...more than likely. Hopefully Suns play well enough to prevent a blow out

 

[Mainstreet]

Wait until the Pacers get a look at our secret weapon, Barbosa playing with our PGs.

we are hanging in there so far

Green playing as if he has something to prove to the Pacers

Interesting the Suns are playing Green and going with Barbosa as the backup PG instead of using two ballhandlers.

Of course Green is playing well.

 

[Folster]

Green is playing out of his mind. The Pacers biggest weakness is their propensity to turnover the ball and the suns are doing a good job taking advantage of them.

 

[ProdigalSun]

The other former Pacer Plumlee on the other hand is thinking way too much...

 

[82CardsGrad]

The lack of a legit, back to the rim center is going to hurt us in the second half when our shooting cools off a bit...

what is going on with Dragic at the FT line? Can't complain about much otherwise with that half

 

[sunsfan88]

Damn we're beating Indy at half? Didn't see that coming. Can't wait to watch the DVRed first half! Watching the 2nd half though

7-10 3pt shooting for PHX in the first half? Dayum! Gonna have to keep that up in the 1st half I'd think.

Indy is 12-4 when trailing at halftime so we can't let up at all really.

Go Suns!

Barbosa cannot play without another PG playing with him.

3 Impressive Quarters Down

Trying to figure out if this beatdown of the Pacers is more impressive than the beatdown of the Clippers on national TV. Also...Ish is a baller

 

[SirStefan32]

Well, I didn't see that coming.

That's right, tonight's game has national coverage.

Why is Christmas in but not Goodwin?

 

[SirStefan32]

Lenforcer is in.

 

[Folster]

Fantastic team effort tonight. It was great to see the Suns show up for a nationally televised game for a change.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ish Smith playing a key role again tonight.

I hate to beat a dead horse...but this team is so fun to watch
