Suns @ Clippers Wednesday game thread, October 23rd, 2024: Season Opener

[Germz249]

Its going to be this kind of a year huh..

 

[Covert Rain]

In February or beyond, sure. It's literally game 1. A rigid system isn't established and won't be for a while. These are the times where it can help.

They need more time together not less but yes it’s one game.

 

[TJ]

James Harden is the most worthless “star” in this league

 

[Chaplin]

We limit the turnovers and this is a laugher.

 

[95pro]

Why bring in a PG if you are just going to have him dribble down then throw down into an iso play? The Suns did that way to often tonight. Annoying.

Yeah he got rid of the ball too soon.

 

[GatorAZ]

Don’t often feel bad for billionaires but kinda do for Ballmer. Builds a new arena with his own funds and it’s 70% full for the grand opening.

 

[Mainstreet]

Good teams win ugly games and this was ugly.

 

[Yuma]

Anyone got tips to rapidly lower blood pressure?

Cripes..

gummies?

KD?

 

[Covert Rain]

That arena is pretty bad A. That LED screen is beyond cool.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Road opening night W is a W.

Good enough for Game 1, with a ton left on the table to work on.

He still almost beat us. If he drops 15lbs he could be a lot better. As bad as he looked he still controlled the pace of the game.

Go back to your hole!

Harden has needed to drop 15 lbs for ages. It isn’t happening.

did I not tell you all a pg would do is dribble the ball up and give to one of the big 3?

It’s not the 90’s, that’s all PG’s do now.

Suns win the first NBA game in the Clippers arena. That's history. Love it. F LA!

I don’t feel bad for anyone dumb enough to give Kawhi a huge extension with a bone on bone knee.

To he fair, isn't that what most game 1's are?

 

[Hoop Head]

I don’t feel bad for anyone dumb enough to give Kawhi a huge extension with a bone on bone knee.

And closed their window also by letting PG walk.

Not saying they were favorites but if they could get Kawhi and PG in the playoffs then they could beat anyone. They couldn't so I get it but why pay one and not the other.

 

[TJ]

KD?

Wut

 

[TJ]

We 100% get run by 10+ last season.

I missed the mjb weed updates to celebrate wins or cope with losses almost as much as I missed basketball. Glad you're still high sir.

 

[Mainstreet]

Seven points for Bradley Beal in overtime.
