Game Day: Clippers (41-20) @ Suns (35-24) , Tues 3/4/14

Post by Superbone »

Time: 9:00 pm EST (6:00 pm Pacific, 7:00 pm Arizona)
Place: US Airways Center, Phoenix, AZ
TV: FSAZ, PT, LP

It is Danny Granger's first game with the Clippers tonight and now Plumlee is a game time decision. Hopefully, we'll give them a good battle as they'll be out for revenge after we pummeled them at their place.

Go Suns!!!

We do seem to kind of match of well against this team for some reason, even going back to our matchups last year. I guess because Blake isn't a traditional big PF who bullies his way around the paint - the type who usually beat us up. I've never really feared playing against him. Then again, he'll probably go for 40 tonight and I'll look like an idiot.

I'm very curious to see how well the starting line-up defends to start the game. It's clearly been the weakest link of our past five games.

I think the Suns pull this out in a close one. I'll say 102-98.

Blake has been playing out of his mind lately. Curious to see if Frye continues to defend him well.

I wonder who takes care of Jordan in the middle now that Plums is likely not to play. Either way I hope it's yet another Suns win. GO TEAM!

Bad timing to face the Clips now. They are playing well and we are a little banged up. This one could get ugly.

Wow, from a DNP to the starting line-up? This may get ugly for him. Though it's not like DeAndre Jordan is some kind of offensive juggernaut.

I guess Hornacek wants to keep the bench rotations intact. Probably a wise move considering our bench has been pretty good lately.

Good luck young man.

Jordan is the type of C that Len needs to play against because he doesn't have any real post game and he's a terrible FT shooter so fouls wont be an issue. Len should play the high post and use his jumper offensively to keep Jordan away from the paint.

Fouls will be an issue. I'll be surprised if Len can stay on the floor.

I'm hoping for 25 minutes outta Len, get some boards/blocks. I think LAC goes at him from the tip.
