Thunder @ Suns game thread 3-2-18

[Mainstreet]

OKC looks like they didn't plan on playing defense tonight.

Booker is going for 4000 points and he will not be denied.



He has 17 points and 5 assists.

Pretty solid company in league with LeBron and Durant...

 

[Mainstreet]

Jackson with a 3 pointer.

Absolutely.

Stoked to see JJ still flourishing even after getting put back on the bench.

 

[Mainstreet]

Chriss with some Stoudemire type blocks at the rim. This game is exciting.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Oooooohhhh Shiiiiiiiiiitttttt!!!

That was a sick oop pass by Josh and nice flush by Warren.

He’s really starting to come into his own. It’s pretty awesome to watch.

 

[Finito]

This is flat out unacceptable We can't have this guys

Just way to much effort tonight

He really is you can tell he's getting more and more comfortable

Chriss looks like he wants to play tonight. Bender is quiet.

Halftime:

Suns 67 - Thunder 60

Chriss with good defense on Adams right before half.

Really like those white jerseys. They're like slightly updated versions of the late 80's uniforms.

Really hadn't thought about it but you are right.

 

[Finito]

Really good first half by the Suns. Like I said I don't expect them to keep this pace but I love what I see.

Booker is Booker

Jackson is growing right before our eyes. Its like he was overwhelmed by the pace of the NBA early and now you can see he's letting the game come to him and picking his spots. He looks electric.

Chriss looks like he's showing signs of life. Good hopefully he finishes strong and we can package him on draft day

 

[Mainstreet]

If Chriss starts playing well... keep him.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker has 29 points to reach 4000 points... and beyond... now 32.

Suns lead 78 - 65.

Timeout Thunder.

 

[Finito]

Booker is putting on a show keep feeding him. This is why I love Payton he's gonna do the right thing not go rouge like Mike James

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

MAn for whatever reason we just own the thunder.

 

[Mainstreet]

Sweet drive to the basket by Payton.

They don't seem to play defense against the Suns. They plan to outscore them. It's not working thus far.

 

[Hoop Head]

It's interesting how some teams seem to have other teams numbers, especially when it's a bad team like the Suns having the number for the Thunder, who are title contenders this year. On paper the Suns don't have any matchup advantages, really, except maybe Booker against their SG now that Andre Roberson is out. They should be able to slide Paul George onto Booker though but that doesn't seem to be much of a concern for them.

I'm liking Payton a lot.

The Thunder are letting the Suns do whatever they want... even drive to the basket.

 

[Hoop Head]

Westbrook used to have great games against the Suns when we had Bledsoe. He seems uninterested now though.

 

[Finito]

I always watch the other teams broadcast and holy crap the OKC ones are about as bad as it gets.

Everything is a foul.
