NBA China Games #2: Suns vs Nets Sunday game thread, October 12th, 2025: Preseason

[Mainstreet]

Booker is getting hot. He is 3-4 for 9 points.

 

[Mainstreet]

Gillespie from three. He shot that with confidence.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns lead 27-19 going into a timeout.

 

[Mainstreet]

Devin Booker is 3-5 for 11 points. He has a lot of fans that love him in China.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nick Richards is playing like he wants to start if given the opportunity.

 

[Mainstreet]

Grayson Allen looks like a new player this season, playing defense and shooting well.

 

[Mainstreet]

Oso starting to show what he can do given minutes, although making free throws is critical.

 

[Mainstreet]

Claxton went around Maluach like he wasn't there.

 

[Mainstreet]

Man Man looks to be a half-step slow. I hope his basketball IQ can help make up for it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 51 - Nets 49

It's hard to feel right. ASU lost a football game last night.

Going for the trifecta... ASU, Suns and Cardinals games.

Some appropriate music for fans getting up early for the game.

What a great game by Arizona. They came so close to beating BYU.

 

[Mainstreet]

What a defensive effort by Allen to create an over and back.

 

[Mainstreet]

Grayson making a strong statement about not being traded.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker plus 1. Fans enjoy it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Yeah, Porter Jr. jumped into the defender and the referee saw it.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns lead 65-59 heading into a timeout.

 

[Mainstreet]

That's no foul. Brooks got all arm.

 

[Mainstreet]

Eddie half-way joking teams have more coaches than players.

 

[Mainstreet]

Clowney looks good for the Nets.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Suns 88 - Nets 81

 

[Mainstreet]

Jordan Goodwin looks like a good addition. He is a cold-blooded shooter.

 

[Mainstreet]

Gillespie's shot from three... boom.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns backup point guards look solid: Gillespie, Goodwin and Butler.

 

[Mainstreet]

Man Man makes the shot off the glass. He looked good on that play.
