I'm always amazed by the yelling at the refs Draymond Green is able to get away with.

Royce needs to fucking stop shooting. My God!

Green keeping us in it, and seeing Curry tweak his knee may help us. But our lead still feels very tenuous. Book, Brooks, Royce all shooting poorly.

I didn't mind micro-ball in the first half, Porzingis was -19 and didn't post up. Horford in the 3rd Q was a different story. The Suns would be up 15 now had they played Maluach instead of the silly 3-pg lineup.

Seems like Booker is favoring his left leg a bit.

The big knock on Green was (1) inconsistency; and (2) his disappearing act in the playoffs last year. He's proving that (2) may not have been a concern. At worst, he's improving his trade value. At best -- if he's a playoffs-type player -- could be a keeper. You just need a true distributor and shooter next to him. But we haven't seen him mesh with Gillespie.

If I were GS, I'd pound it in the middle. If I were Ott, I would put the big lineup in just for a couple of minutes to mess them up.

Suns would be out of the game without Goodwin. What a find.
