Thunder @ Suns

[Andrew]

we would have had the lead without some luck on the Thunder's side...we played a lot better in the 3rd.

That play was a sum of the whole season thus far.

[Andrew]

Dudley is hustling too...

 

[cly2tw]

Like what we saw with the subs. They play with energy and fight!

 

[cly2tw]

With that 3pt stroke, Dudley could become our version of Bowen with experience! Play him often with specific assignment!

Wow, Dudley with smaret defensive plays! Block and then cover Durant at 3pt calmly. That's fresh to see.

 

[AceP]

Typical Nash. Careless turnover at crutch time ...

 

[Andrew]

LB with back to back 3s

 

[Hat]

KABOOM!

Back 2 back 3's by Barbs. NICE!

Dudley plays damn good defense too.

 

[cly2tw]

Wow, Shaq even got that soft touch on the FTs, has nailed 4/4.

 

[Andrew]

I hope Nash's shoulder is okay.

[Andrew]

The streak is over, even if it was against the Thunder.

The bench played great and Barnes and Dudley were truly hustling tonight....

I am just happy we got a win.

 

[Proteus]

Yay!!! We won a game.
The Suns had 17 fast break points to the the Thunder's 10. The Suns had 42 points in the paint to the Thunder's 38.The Suns had 44 bench points to the Thunder's 10.

 

[dodie53]

thank you GOD

 

[dodie53]

is Swift still out of shape?
he didn't play tonight based on the box scores.

and why is LB still not playing 30mins a game?

 

[cly2tw]

Nash and Barbosa always comes through against the lottery teams. Yet, our aspiration gotta be higher.
Dudley is smart hustle player with a nice stroke out to 3pt line. Dragic has the talent too.

 

[DeAnna]

Dudley had a pretty good game - Barnes didn't even sniff the court in the 4th qtr.

Maybe there is still hope for the playoffs!

It's good to see that coach rewards performance and stuck to Dudley with JRich and Barnes on the bench to end the game. If we get this kind of game often from Dudley and Dragic, we might have a chance.

 

[AceP]

J.Rich and Barnes has been very inconsistent ...

 

[Andrew]

Barnes is more consistent than Richardson though...

I thought Barnes played his ass off tonight...

what about those new jerseys with "los Suns" on it?

That was the second time, i have seen em with it. I believe the first was last season.

so its like an extra jersey when all the others are in the laundry

 

[Mainstreet]

Maybe it's a typo. Perhaps Lost Suns would be more appropriate.
