Game Day: Suns (22-11) @ Lakers (24-11), Tues 3/2/21

Basically no Paul, Ayton, or Booker in the 4th and we still win!

Great win. A little bittersweet without Book but great team win. Dario's best game of the year, Bridges with a ton of big plays, Nader with some big 3s, Ayton gave us a good first half but the Lakers weren't a great matchup for him.

I love watching Saric play. My goodness, he put the team on his back in the 4th.

Not sure is it was a message or just riding what was working. Ayton was playing well before he went out for the most part.

Weird to interview DA after this game...though I’m sure that was set up before the game.

The Lakers kept Harrell out late to force the Suns to match up small, which they were happy to do because the Suns' smalls > the Laker's smalls.

fivethirtyeight.com now projects the Suns to finish with the second-best record in the league behind Utah.

Suns are deep and dangerous. So satisfying imagining the Lakers "fans" trying to figure out who the Suns had playing in the fourth.

He was on the bench because it was winning time and they needed someone with basketball IQ to be on the court.

Don’t mean to offend, just a popular nickname for Saric on Twitter and Reddit. I’ll tone it down going forward.SunsRIt wrote: ↑Tue Mar 02, 2021 10:58 pmCan we stop with this please.Wally_West wrote: ↑Tue Mar 02, 2021 10:38 pmPraise the AntichristFlagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Tue Mar 02, 2021 10:37 pmI don't want to hear any Saric slander around here ever again.
