Suns @ Timberwolves Saturday game thread 11-23-19

[Finito]

The Kings have done it without Fox and Bagley. I'm sure there are others.

I don't want the team to buy into excuses.

cause all teams are exactly the same right. Smh.

Minnesota tied the score during the 3rd quarter, but
the Suns went on a run to open the lead to 9.

Oubre and sometimes Booker actually played some
basketball and drove to the hoop to make it happen.

 

[BC867]

Booker has a chance at his first triple-double.

 

[Mainstreet]

Oubre and Booker with 25 points each.

 

[Mainstreet]

Cam (1-8) is not hitting shots which lands him on the bench.

 

[BC867]

With 8:26 to go in the game and Booker back in
(with Oubre) they are the Suns.

Booker has 27 points, 7 assists and 9 rebounds.
Oubre has 25 points and 8 rebounds.

 

[BC867]

The Suns go back to popping 3's but the lead is at 6.

Thank you, Minnesota.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns need Diallo back in the game as Wolves are getting easy shots inside.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Cam (1-8) is not hitting shots which lands him on the bench.

Cam and TJ have just killed us. Can’t miss wide open shots. Oh and bridges and okobo too. Yeesh.

 

[Finito]

So is anybody other than Booker going to hit a shot down the stretch

 

[BC867]

Oubre with a great steal.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker needed that shot to fall.

 

[BC867]

Book is one assist short of a triple-double.

 

[Mainstreet]

Cam and TJ have just killed us. Can’t miss wide open shots. Oh and bridges and okobo too. Yeesh.

At least Tyler has played defense but yes, the Suns have needed them.

 

[BC867]

Suns win 100-98. As Kevin Ray said, an ugly win.

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Suns 100 - Wolves 98

Yeah baby... Suns win !!!

 

[RockinDaMike]

Honestly Timberwolves could have easily beat us with an inside game plan.

Too bad Book didn't get a triple double, had his chances but barely anyone was hitting

Wolves must not have read scouting reports. A win is a win. I will take it.

 

[Bufalay]

Okobo guarding Townes in the post and the wolves don’t give him the ball. They should’ve killed the Suns. It’s nice rooting for the team with the superior coach.

Has oubre ever passed after driving the ball? He’s as predictable as warren. At least he plays defense unlike warren.

Anyone know how long Baynes and Rubio are supposed to be out? What about Jerome?

 

[BC867]

Here are the Suns stats for the game.

No one else in double figures. That's all you need to know!

Ugly win, nice effort from the Suns.

Booker secured the win with heavy contribution by Oubre and some by Diallo. All other Suns players had a bad game. After getting back Ayton, Rubio and Baynes the Suns will look like a solid play-off team.

It's unbelievable what total mess is the Wolves. They have no freaking idea how to use Towns, they are full of non-NBA players (like Culver) and they not help each other at all in defense.

It wouldn't be surprising at all, if sooner or later Towns would demand a trade.
