Phoenix Suns having optional shootaround this morning at UCLA: Bradley Beal, Jusuf Nurkic, Tyus Jones and Damion Lee with first group.Beal said his elbow feels "better" as he'll likely be a game-time decision.Suns at Clippers tonight

Excited to see how Dunn does on Harden. Harden is sneaky so he has to look out for early foul trouble. We have O'Neale as well. Going to be a good one (i.e. I think we have a chance).

It was amazing to me to see how Dunn is being respected as a defender by the refs. Usually that whistle blow at any defensive effort. Harden is on another level though regarding getting calls. I think this idea will be tested tonight.

I don’t want a good one, i want to pound their ass into the ground and move on to the next game

I like that Dunn doesn’t beech and moan about the bad calls on him. He just takes it and moves on. He’s got poise.

Harden doesn’t get the calls anymore. He did finally get one at the end of the first matchup when he missed his free throw.

Stupid Halloween precluding me from attending this one

I used to volunteer to hand out candy at my house. Come game time, lights go out, candy all handed out, sign on door, sorry out of candy!

Bradley Beal is OUT tonight, as is Josh Okogie.

The rules for seating in the Clippers, The Wall, behind the basket are crazy.

Some of the fans have to remain standing behind the basket, maybe the first 13 rows? I missed part of it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ryan Dunn will start for the Suns with Bradley Beal out.

 

[Mainstreet]

Tip-off.

Devin Booker ties the game at 2.
