Suns @ 76ers Saturday game thread, 11-4-2023

[Mainstreet]

Vogel appears to be a what have you done for me lately type of coach when it comes to starting line ups - and honestly I'm good with that

Yeah, keep shuffling the cards until they find a winning hand.

I'm hoping he's a card counter!

 

[Mainstreet]

Tip-off.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Nurk gets a bucket right away on a designed play

 

[Mainstreet]

Nurkic scores on the first possession.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns jump off to a quick 4-0 lead.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Nurk with a stop on the defensive end and an assist to Gordon on the other

 

[Mainstreet]

I'm not sure what kind of shot that was by Nurkic.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Embiid backing Nurk down - Grayson comes from behind to help but called for foul

 

[BirdGangThing]

Gordon for 3 and the lead

 

[Mainstreet]

Gordon with the long three. Suns lead 12-7.

 

[Mainstreet]

Durant has missed some good looks.

 

[BirdGangThing]

KD is more than happy to shoot this morning - shot is a little off but we've seen him start out like that before

 

[Chaplin]

Are they really not going to give kd continuation?

 

[Mainstreet]

Durant flips the ball up there, scores and is fouled. IMO, it should count.

Durant has missed some good looks.

Seems to be pressing a bit and even the FTs are in his head. These guys don’t like to lose and have to be frustrated that things aren’t going the best yet. I mean poop they haven’t even fielded the whole team yet and dealing with injuries. Not to mention ridiculous hot shooting from the spurs, I mean they lost that game imo because the Spurs knocked down 8 or 9 3s in the first quarter and boom 19 point lead…

 

[BirdGangThing]

6 minutes in and Diop hasn't done shiot - goose eggs across the stat sheet

 

[BirdGangThing]

KD and Nurk only remaining starters still on the court

 

[BirdGangThing]

Yuta quickly figuring out rebounds and defense = minutes

 

[BirdGangThing]

Nurkmeister for 3

 

[Mainstreet]

Nurkic says I can hit a shot.

 

[95pro]

Nurkmeister for 3

Stop trying to make fetch happen!

 

[nashman]

These guys have got to I mean HAVE to make the wide open looks! Gotta make teams pay if they want to double…

 

[BirdGangThing]

Nurk with 5 points 2 rebounds 2 assists
Embiid with 6 points 3 rebounds 1 assist

 

[BirdGangThing]

Stop trying to make fetch happen!

It's on now lol
