It has to be 35 feet out.

Nice IQ bledsoe...thanks for the extra time
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

I wish Booker would get half the calls Harden does.
Go Suns!

Not a great possession for the Suns there. Booker wasn't the first option, he was the only option.

Suns played like a$$ tonight....probabaly should of never of been in it with the way they played. Dissapointed with the play tonight.

Agreed. All of OT, they just seem like their whole offense was Book thats it

why don't we have any effective plays to free Booker, like GS has for Curry?

Well, they were lucky to even be in it with 29 turnovers and so many second chance points. Those two Bender turnovers in OT killed them.

I'm not sure why we didn't try to get the ball to TJ at the end. Booker was exhausted from being mauled all night.

so, for fear of him fouling out, the coach voluntarily took Booker out (for way too long)
it's a self-fulfilling prophecy
i know i'm alone on this, but i've always believed in letting key players play with fouls
if they play tentatively, then yes, take them out
but coach them to be aggressive always

if Booker had not been out, the Suns would have most likely not been in the position to need him to be there in the end for a clutch shot!

Ulis knows how to pass the ball
often, the Sun's don't know how to receive it

i will not be pleased if we're planning on trading our best center, Monroe, without getting significant value in return

I think he needed the rest. Liggins beat him up all night long and he was clearly gassed in OT where he missed 5 shots.
Go Suns!

Yeah, liked the way we were flowing with Monroe.
It will be tough to develop chemistry if they really are rotating all 3 big men. I imagine Alex gets the short end of the stick more often than not if we keep the 3 centers together.
We need to trade Chandler. Len didn't even get in tonight. Monroe was so much better on the court than Chandler. We need to move him and start Monroe with Len coming off the bench.
