That Chiozza offensive rebound is on Book.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Every rebound is an adventure.

[ShelC]

Book back in the lockerroom, could be a hamstring.

[Flagrant Fowl]

This is as close to a playoff game we'll ever see in November. The energy in the crowd is high and both coaches are being very liberal with calling timeous.

[SunsRIt]

Great. Booker out the rest of the game. Hamstring.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Well, there goes the win streak.

[Uncle_Gene]

Booker out with left hamstring injury.

DAMN !!

[pickle]

Time for Cam J and Shamet to step up.

[pickle]

3 straight possessions of more than credible defense by Ayton on Steph before that last blow by.

[ShelC]

A very fast game, faster than we're used to which may play into the Ws' hands. Some uncharacteristic TOs, GS has thrown us off a bit with their pace and some zone. Poole and Porter have really hurt us and I wouldn't expect Curry to be as quiet in the 2nd half.

Being reported Book is out for the game so more Shamet and Payne.

[Mori Chu]

Exciting first half. Loved the defense at the end of the half by our Suns; back to back, Ayton blocks Curry and then Bridges blocks him again. Beautiful. Also, Cam Johnson came to play tonight; he has the F-U edge to his game and I love seeing him play this way. I like the way the team has looked for Ayton. He has a size advantage and has made some nice layups from good inside position.

TNT says Booker hurt his hamstring; uh oh. I think we still can win this game, but hopefully the injury doesn't keep Book out of future games. Gulp.

Poole is really torching us. Seems like every shot he puts up is going in. Porter feels the same way; he's been great. Love our defense on Curry, limiting him to 8 points on 3-13 shooting. That part of our defensive plan has worked out great, mostly thanks to the Bridges jail.

[pickle]

Frankly I don't really mind Booker taking some maintenance days. We can use the time to give reps to Cam J and Shamet. Maybe Wainright will get some burn?

[Flagrant Fowl]

The 3rd quarter is when the Warriors typically bury teams. It's gonna be tough for the Suns to keep pace without Booker.

[Uncle_Gene]

Time for Cam J and Shamet to step up.

Exactly.

[Flagrant Fowl]

I like Cam Johnson replacing Booker as opposed to Cam Payne or Shammet to start the 3rd.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Does Monty McCutchen not own a mirror?

[Uncle_Gene]

Damn, Crowder misses both free throws.

[ShelC]

Crowder's still seeing triple out there. CP starting to get warm off the PnRs with DA. He'll need to be more aggressive knowing Book is out. I like Cam Johnson with the starters here - he just fits with them and gives more length on the switches.

[Flagrant Fowl]

The Warriors aren't going to let Paul keep beating them with the mid range jumper. I'm guessing they'll start doubling him, the wings have to be ready to swing and shoot.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Feels like Mikal has the yips on offense. He needs to attack the rim.
