Suns @Timberwolves 1-20-18

[Mainstreet]

Acy is now in the game.

 

[Mainstreet]

Acy is earning his contracts with defense.

 

[Mainstreet]

Timeout at 4:10 mark of the 1st quarter:

Suns 21 - Wolves 14

 

[SirStefan32]

Acy is earning his contracts with defense.

Absolutely! That's what he always does. Plays hard, never takes a play off. Honestly, that's the type of a player this team needs.

 

[Mainstreet]

Acy misses a 3 pointer but he had a better opportunity earlier but passed.

 

[SirStefan32]

ACY!

 

[Mainstreet]

Great to see Acy get his first basket of the season.

 

[SirStefan32]

Okobo has so much potential, it's crazy! He can easily become a Barbosa/ Dragic type, but with solid defense.

 

[SirStefan32]

But that was a stupid foul by Mr. Okobo. I must have jinxed him.

 

[SirStefan32]

JJ misses two free throws.

I agree Okobo should develop into a nice point guard given time. If I were the Suns I would be hesitant to trade him.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Suns 31 -Wolves 29

 

[SirStefan32]

Suns up by 2 at the end of the first quarter. 31-29.

 

[Mainstreet]

Jackson had the open 3 but was indecisive and travels.

 

[SirStefan32]

Bender with a put-back +1. Blocks Rose on the other end and then dunks.

 

[Mainstreet]

Bender!!!

 

[SirStefan32]

Um, can we have this Bender every game? Please?

 

[SirStefan32]

Bender draws an offensive foul on KAT.

 

[Mainstreet]

Um, can we have this Bender every game? Please?

If Bender suddenly develops I hope the Suns can keep him.

 

[SirStefan32]

Another dunk by Bender!

 

[Proximo]

Ok I’m going to say something crazy.

I think if bender had smart shot selection, he can be 80 percent of ayton on offense, and he is better than him defensively.

He will make a very good center for somebody, if they get him to play like he has this half.

The Suns give up on players too quickly.

 

[Mainstreet]

Acy has 4 personal fouls. This will hurt.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Will Acy foul out during half time?

 

[SirStefan32]

Well, I don't think they gave up on Bender. They just didn't pick up his option. Instead of guaranteeing him $4M or so, they are making him earn his contract.
