Suns @ 76ers Tuesday game thread 2-8-2022

[Phrazbit]

Don't know what triggered it but this light that flipped for Mikel has been a revelation.

7 game stretch averaging 20 points per game.

Might be that he knew he needed to step up with Payne and Shamet out, hopefully he keeps this mindset when they return.

Him as a consistent scorer, with his defense, would be a top 20 player in the league.

Got em

Man this one feels good

Agreed!

 

[Chaplin]

I will say I love Joel Embiid. Such a great player.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns grind out wins. It's what they do.

 

[Finito]

Cam and Crowder combined for 1/14

 

[Cheesebeef]

Devin has been so damn impressive the last 10 games. Just playing like a freaking BOSS.

 

[Finito]

I will say I love Joel Embiid. Such a great player.

He’s insane and there going to waste his MVP year by being stubborn

I will say I love Joel Embiid. Such a great player.

He’s a load out there... and the Sixers are just wasting him away.

Great W. CP3 mightve been tired tonight. Once again leads the team in minutes.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns play the Bucks on Thursday. Nothing coming easy.

Jumped on the Suns when the 76ers went on that big run. Suns won me close to $500 in two days

It's just a guess but I'm sticking with the dislocated finger explanation. He was playing pretty well until that happened (Dec 3rd) and the internet says it take 4 to 6 weeks of rest for it to heal. About 6 weeks after the injury, he's back to being the up and coming star many of us believed him to be. So, coincidence? I think not!

Wow, that’s a pretty good night. Ayton screwed me not getting 8 boards.

 

[Mainstreet]

Mikal Bridges becoming that guy. His complete game is coming together.

More Legos!

Yeah, we got a steal with his contract.

I either bet the under or stay away.

You can make a lot of money right now waiting for the Suns to be behind and then bet the Moneyline.

TNT had Boston / NJ over Suns / Sixers. Dumb

Suns have an 83% win percentage when he plays per Arizona sports

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

Takes a special team to beat the scheduled loss

 

[Finito]

Boston jumped out to a 28-2 lead how does that even happen

 

[Weenus O'Baggins]

On TNT Shaq has a bright pink nose. It has to be makeup

Gutsy win, on a tail end of a back to back on the road against one of the best teams in the east with rest advantage on their side. Embiid got his, but I liked the Suns' gameplan and even though there were a couple of easy ones, I thought DA played a solid game. Didn't give up too many FTs, and was able to mostly stay 1 on 1 against him so that the team could stay home on defense.

Early in the game the Suns gave Embiid too much respect including Ayton.
