Suns @ Thunder, 12/19/2010

[Proteus]

Whew. Yay!!!! Suns win 113-110. Great win Suns.

 

[Michael]

What a great (and unexpected) win! Grant Hill cannot possibly be 38 years old.

 

[Lefty]

Very nice and unexpected win.

 

[Griffin]

Great win. Great recovery after the dismal end to the third quarter. Hill with one of his best games as a Sun.

Funny how after OKC attempted 46 FT in this game as the refs were "letting them play" but only on one end of the floor for most of the game, the studio "analysts" at NBATV concluded that the refs gave the Suns the win.

What's Brent Barry's beef against the Suns! Nash was fouled! Westbrook didn't even mouth up any peeps against the call on his 6th.

 

[Rats]

Great Win!!!

 

[desertdawg]

Good friggin win tonight. I want to see Gortat with the team, I want to see him and Lopez in at the same time against the lakers.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Great win. Even more impressive when you factor in we were playing shorthanded (no Earl Clark).

Steve

 

[jagu]

Durant gets wayyy too many calls. I don't know how we won without Clark's presence..

 

[sunsfan88]

Clark would have probably done a better job than Dudley did tonight

Dude is just stupid, no wonder is wife wanted to bone Parker

should i quote myself?
hehe

My 4 and 1/2 year old son keeps saying it's opposite day, so I guess you're right.

 

[sunsfan88]

imo, this is the best defensive effort by the Suns so far this season. Turnover is what killed us.

And fouls.

This was easily the most lopsided officiating I've seen all season. It's as though the referees looked at the active rosters and decided before the game started that the Suns couldn't possibly win.

How do you figure? It can't be from the 46 to 30 free throw attempt discrepancy that the Thunder have. OKC was on the line almost once per minute!

Um... I meant lopsided in favor of the Thunder. Sorry if that wasn't overwhelmingly obvious.

Or maybe, it was Nash not Parker, or even both of them, as I heard Nash was divorcing too? Brent must be a really mad husband. That'd explain his attitude.

 

[Ronin]

The third quarter was a doozy for Goran Dragic and the rest team.
Glad he and the rest of the suns got it together in the 4th.


Childress undressing Durant for the steal was sweet!

 

[Mainstreet]

I didn't get to watch the game. What caught my eye is that Dudley did not shoot the ball much and only scored two points in 29 minutes. I can only guess he was a defensive presence. Of course Grant Hill probably played his best game with the Suns. Any thoughts about Dudley?

Your assumptions are correct, i think he did a good job and did those stuffs that dont show up in the stats

I know you're being snarky here, but it was an honest mistake. Sorry about that. The commentators on NBA TV were talking about how the refs were blindingly favoring the Suns at the end, and I mistakenly thought your post was an extension of that. My bad.

He and Grant did a pretty good job on Kevin Durant.

Don't forget Childress.
