Suns @ Pelicans Thursday game thread, December 5th, 2024

[Mainstreet]

Bud gets a T for an uncalled foul against Booker.

 

[Yuma]

I like that Bud took the T. Beal should not.

 

[Mainstreet]

He altered several shots while in there.

He at least gives the Pelicans another big body to navigate and allows other Suns a better opportunity to rebound.

Plus he can score over all their guys.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Pelicans are more physical than the Suns and they are taking advantage.

 

[Mainstreet]

Pelicans lead 90-85.

Can the Suns respond to a more physical and athletic team?

 

[nashman]

Of course these ******* get players back to play us more healthy… we get all the good breaks lol…

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Pelicans 99 - Suns 93

[Yuma]

That was a HORRIBLE 3rd quarter!

 

[nashman]

Better wake the hell up or they gonna steal this one, just a putrid 3rd and let them get hot and catch the mo…..

 

[Mainstreet]

That was a HORRIBLE 3rd quarter!

It's almost inevitable that the more physical team will take it inside for easy baskets. The Suns are like a donut in the middle.

 

[Yuma]

I can't wait to see Oso next year after the training staff has him bulking up in the off season!

 

[Mainstreet]

Four fouls on Oso. Bol Bol is also in the game.

 

[Mainstreet]

Bol Bol cleans up a miss.

 

[Mainstreet]

Plumlee comes into the game for Oso.

 

[Yuma]

Seems like momentum is slowly switching with Bol in there.

The Suns have to have his size.

Tie game just like that.

 

[Mainstreet]

Beal ties the game at 101.

 

[Mainstreet]

Pelicans pull ahead by 7.

 

[Hoop Head]

Bol² gets too excited when he touches the ball. It's like he's still playing in the .5 offense. He doesn't need to rush things.

 

[Mainstreet]

Pelicans appear intent on breaking their 9 game losing streak.

 

[Hoop Head]

If this doesn't say we need size then the front office will never learn. Being outsized, outrebounded, and bullied by the Pelicans, of all teams.

 

[Mainstreet]

Royce pulls the Suns to within 1 point.

1 million +

Royce O'Neale is a godsend
