Part of that is Booker gets fouled more than most stars.

I don't buy that.

 

[GatorAZ]

So glad we got Dillon over Jabari

 

[Mainstreet]

One thing for sure, the Pelicans do not like losing to the Suns.

suns win back to back in new orleans despite the pelicans recent rise - they flopped their way to a loss in the 1st and lost playing us straight up in the second game - we're just the better team but they got some unstoppable bulldozers to go with murphy's 3s...

anyways funk them and that little chumpa loompa - won't be seeing them again anytime soon - swept that pelican ish off the boat dock baby- i love how we're pissing coaches off to the point of technicals btw

Without the fouls being called

 

[Mainstreet]

Oso with a team high +16.

He had 8 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists and a steal.

 

[GatorAZ]

20 wins before 1/1 would be crazy.

Actually, I was a big Dr. J fan, and he had some loose handles.

 

[Proximo]

Well, I’m glad we are done with the pelicans for awhile. They aren’t that good but I hate the way they pound the paint.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

I wonder how far dildorado has gotten by now - maybe baton rouge? he was running pretty fast

 

[Mainstreet]

Without the fouls being called

Yes, Booker doesn't get the calls or respect from the referees many stars get as evidenced as him being manhandled by Zion at halfcourt in plain sight of the referees.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

are the lukas losing tonight

 

[Mainstreet]

Actually, I was a big Dr. J fan, and he had some loose handles.

What I'm trying to say, a lot of Booker's turnovers are caused by the physical contact of the defender.

 

[Yuma]

What I'm trying to say, a lot of Booker's turnovers are caused by the physical contact of the defender.

I have been saying for a couple seasons he needs to call up Crawford and have him teach booker all those great crossovers, etc.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

our wins hinge on so many players - all trusting eachother and doing the right thing on defense - not the ayton thing - the 3s might not fall and the fouls might not be called but we hang our freakin hats on our defense

A look at some final stats.

7 suns in double figures holy ish

 

[Mainstreet]

IMO, Jose Alvarado should be suspended for this fight. He initiated it.

Mark Williams had no place to go.
