Pistons @ Suns Wednesday game thread 2-14-2024

[Mainstreet]

Good pass out to Roddy by Lee once he penetrated inside.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

Uh oh - not sure turn around jumpshots are supposed on Bol Bol's goal list

 

[Mainstreet]

Lee and Roddy have a thing going. They must practice together.

 

[95pro]

Those two last Saben passes are what I want to see from him.

 

[Mainstreet]

Now we get to see Udoka.

 

[95pro]

Little looks bigger

 

[Hoop Head]

I was slightly worried when Booker was tossed. Glad Detroit decided to take mercy on us and just quit trying at that point. Can't hate the W. Now to get Beal healthy and some continuity.


And Royce is a great addition. I was surprised so many doubted he'd be a quality addition. I didn't think he'd be as good as he's been but he's right there with Nurk, EG, and Grayson as far as quality talent behind the big 3.

Man… if Curry doesn’t hit that shot, we’d only be 2 games back of Denver for the 4 spot after their loss to Sac tonight.

 

[Sunburn]

Very impressed with Saban this game

 

[95pro]

That’s the Saben that gets to me right there although he drew a foul

Royce has been more active than I thought. Could be the honeymoon phase. We shall see as we get more reps with him. But the eye test is happy with him.

 

[Mainstreet]

Lee is a blur. I like the energy.

Elfrid Payton could get to the rim but he couldn't finish.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Man… Fox for Sacramento is so good.

 

[Mainstreet]

Maledon is tentative, like he doesn't want to make a mistake.

It's hard to blame him with the lack of playing time.

 

[Mainstreet]

Good to see Maledon score plus he is fouled.

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Suns 116 - Pistons 100

 

[Mainstreet]

Some final stats.

[Joe Mama]

Good whipping for the first three of the quarters but that fourth is not going to help our abysmal fourth-quarter season stats any.

 

[Mainstreet]

Royce O'Neal is +54 in his first 65 minutes with Phoenix.

[Germz249]

What the hell Booker.. Good win! Lets move on to the next.

 

[Mainstreet]

Royce O'Neale had a +37 for the game.

 

[Suns_fan69]

Solid win given the circumstances. Just about the only disappointing thing was Nasir Little's play. O'Neale is a keeper for sure, love his play so far.

 

[Weenus O'Baggins]

Sophie on commentary is great. Glad she's sort of drowns out Annie.

100% agree on Sophie but I don't hate Anne. She is a bit dry but super knowledgeable.

 

[Mainstreet]

The Kings beat the Nuggets in Denver tonight. Every little bit helps.

 

[Vacard]

Didnt watch but 31-17 forth quarter for a garbage team like Detroit is appalling. Whst happened?? Starters were rested?

7 points for Book. Did he get hurt?
