At least the Lakers are playing the Kings, which is a team they should beat. I'm glad the Kings waited to trade Cousins because they'd be a team that could probably out tank everyone.

I hope we keep Williams.


Len even looked ok for a few seconds...Then he went back to being Len.

I haven't watched much of the Suns since the All Star break but it seems like Eddie Johnson is rooting for the tank on commentary, calling for the Suns to slow down their play despite that being why they're kicking the Thunder around tonight.

I hate rooting against this team, especially after they played such a great first half...but we really need to lose this game!

Alan Williams' arm takes out Westbrook on the drive.

It's a flagrant 1. There was no intent.

Westbrook got his 6 assists tonight which is all he needed in order to guarantee a triple double average for the year, he had 814 coming into the game tonight through 78 games. He's already hit the mark on rebounds, coming into tonight with 831 boards.

I've been rooting for Westbrook. He played so poorly in that first half that he had to come to life here in the 2nd, he has and has gotten OKC back within striking distance.

Jared Dudley has been playing well of late. I can't help but wonder if it took him all season to get in shape. He is playing much better than I thought he could.

Warren has his fifth double double of the season, all of them happening within the last month. 5 out of the last 14 games. Averaging 17.8 ppg, 7.9 rpg, and shooting 52% from the field.

Warren is like...Jackson who??

I think the Suns are in position to draft BPA. They need a shooter and an upgrade at any position with the exception of SG.

Well...The good news is whoever the Suns get in the draft will be icing on the cake

I really think this whole triple double thing really messed with everyones minds. Suns were like..."Not in my house!"

Booker getting hot is not a good sign for Suns fans hoping for a loss.

It looks like turn out the lights time in this game. This will be the second time the Suns have beat the Thunder this season.

That's why I wanted Booker benched all along. Tanking is a dirty business...We don't have enough dirt on our hands!

Booker has finally given me a reason to at least be interested to watch a couple minutes of a game. Get one more young stud next to him in this draft and I might actually give a damn whether they win or lose again!
