Im conflicted.

I want them to win every game. But the team needs more talent! We need a high draft pick.

One of the most difficult and clutch game winners I've ever seen from a Suns player. Incredible.
Great question. Barkley's put back against the Blazers was just luck. Majerle's 40 footer vs the Lakers was sort of the same thing.

Tim Thomas' three was to tie the game.

Greatest game winner ever by a Sun?

.... ?

After that amazing game and 3 and 0 in the bubble? There's nothing to be conflicted about. We have Devin Booker and a pretty solid core. We aren't a high draft pick away from contending.

I wonder which Clippers highlights ESPN will show after this game.
Do you think it's POSSIBLE they might show Booker's final shot?

Nothing brings me greater joy than hearing EJ laughing about someone's performance on the broadcast.
Oh, man. I wish I didn't have to listen to the Clippers' broadcast.

It's just that subtle EJ laugh that he does when someone does something unreal. Imagine it in your mind and you'll be really close I promise...

I went with Al on radio and synced it up with the video stream. Worth the extra effort.

When Book's shot went in, I hollered so loudly that I made my 1-year-old son cry. Sorry, little buddy!

Upon rewatching the replay of the last possession some 20-odd times, it's really a spectacular shot by Booker. He had *both* Kawhi and George right next to him, arms up, trying to block his shot, but he faded back over both of them and swished it. Just a spectacular game-winner. Maybe the best win of his career, or certainly one of them. So proud of the dude.
You see how he gives it that extra oomf with the flick of the wrist? Amazing.

ShelC: That @Suns tweet is such an adrenaline rush. Love seeing the guys cheer him on like that. What a special moment. Amazing how the excitement of a basketball game can be such an emotional lift; made my whole day.

Pacers next, it’s only fair that TJ sits out with a mysterious injury...he can come back the next game...actually screw that, let’s stomp them with TJ in.
On the Clippers' broadcast, they said Morris loves playing the Suns. I hope he enjoyed that.

Luckily I got to hear some of it in the tweet above.
