Booker always seems to get up for Westbrook and the Thunder. It will be a tough go at OKC. Let's see how long we can hang around in this one.

Go Suns!!!

Already mentally preparing for Westbrook to score 45 with a triple-double and humiliate us. Meanwhile Booker has 35 in a meaningless loss. :-)

Is OKC a dark arena? I can't remember very well. There is plenty of talk that Booker is much better in dark arenas. Something about how well the back of the rim stands out against the lighted crowd versus a dark background. AWA is pretty bright all around. Might explain his significant difference in performance between home and away. He shoots 46% on the road, and under 42% at home.

Agreed. And it looks so much better when it is like a spot light on the court and the crowd fades into the background. But you probably make less on in-arena advertisements... bleh.

I thought the shooting percentage difference was a competition thing. He loves to shut up the away crowds.

Bordow says TJ out (back spasms) so Jackson takes his starting spot.

Is it me see this or is it that Daniels can't hit sh!t anymore?

Got to love Booker. Came over and pulled Benders arm away from helping up Adams.

Take out Booker and we shot 7/32 from the field and 2/15 from 3. Daniels was 1/9 and 1/8 from 3.

JJ with a knee injury. Guess it happened in the 2nd quarter hopefully nothing too serious.

Devon getting the start for second half.
