Suns @ Hornets game thread 3-10-18

Grabbing boards now too, leading the fast break. That's what I like to see.

Suns better not win this....RED ALERT!

 

[Mainstreet]

Bender is the next Dirk!

Perhaps you are underestimating.

 

[SirStefan32]

He’s doing this with literally zero pressure down 25.

I mean, I’m glad he’s doing something but there literally couldn’t be less pressure possible possible in this game.

Man, can you be happy just one time? Do you really have to be negative 100% of the time?

It's how Bender is playing. He rarely does this during any point in a game.

 

[pokerface]

Duds!

 

[Mainstreet]

Reed is playing all out this game. Nice to see him regain confidence after the injury.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nice idea Dragan on the drive even if you lost the ball. You are doing what you are supposed to do.

 

[pokerface]

Take it to the bank

 

[SirStefan32]

Don't even care that he dribbled it off his foot. He took the ball and drove to the hoop with the game on the line. I am fine with that at this point.

I’m happy when Josh and Book have big games while actually playing in live NBA games. I’m happy when we play well, but lose helping push us towards the main goal.

But I’m not going to bend over into a pretzel to ******* the team and myself because a guy who hasn’t shown a pulse in weeks or months finally shows some thing in complete garbage time.

And you make that comment... as if WE’RE NOT THE WORST TEAM IN THE LEAGUE, with the only bright spot being Booker and a couple great months from Jackson, both of whom I repeatedly give props too.

Save your trolling comments literally posted for no other reason than to start a flame war to yourself and just talk basketball.

Careful there Stefan. You keep going this way and you might go blind.

Suns were down 20 missing most their starters in the fourth and came back. Who would have thunk it??

 

[Mainstreet]

Ulis has 11 points and 10 assists today.

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Hornets 122 - Suns 115

 

[Mainstreet]

Very pleased with the PG play of Payton, Harrison and Ulis.

 

[Mainstreet]

I am so happy to see Reed play like he did tonight.

He needed it and deserved it.

He had 16 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists. Reed was 4-4 from 3-point range and 5-8 from the field.

 

[pokerface]

Ok the suns showed some promise and kept the draft dream alive.




TANK U

 

[hsandhu]

All this with bender at the 5 and no chandler or Len out there.

Literally What some of us have been calling for months, at very least it drags defensive big out the paint.

I'm fine with it since it helped our tanking, but it speaks to trkano's incompetance. Get a smarter coach

Wow Reed really showed some stuff. I hope it's not a flash in the pan performance.

 

[Chaplin]

Bender's best showings seem to have ALWAYS been when he's at the 5, not the 4. Unless I'm missing something from early January when he was tearing it up. You'd think the coach would see it, especially one who is supposed to have the pedigree that Triano has.

 

[Carolinacacti]

Can't believe they had that many fans go to this game. Glad I stayed home. Would have been nice if Peters played some.

thankfully Triano will be gone in a month, not sure who I want to replace though

 

[Hoop Head]

Really good game from everyone, while still coming up with the loss. Glad Booker and Jackson were out since everyone else seemed to show up in the 2nd half. Odd to see everything click in the 2nd half when it's usually the opposite.

 

[Chaplin]

I didn't see the game, but in the middle of the 3rd I basically thought the worst, but my #1 thought was that I have been willing to give Bender the benefit of the doubt, but that was going to change. In the PERFECT opportunity for both him and Chriss to show what they have with NO Warren and NO Booker, they were laying eggs. And while I like Shaq, him being the leading scorer up to that point was straight up ridiculous.
