I have to give it to Ott…. Drawing up that play for green to take that shot when he’d been struggling was a pretty gutsy move to trust him after struggling so bad.

Brooks with a broken hand per Shams. This team has some sort of bad juju this year.
Damn…. Prob a 6 week min recovery I’m betting. Hopefully green can get that shot going.
At least he won’t get any technicals for the next few weeks.

I missed most of the game (kid's birthday party) but watched the box score on my phone and the highlights. The clip of Green's game winner (and the play before it) are must-watch. Jevon Carter hits a wild 3 to tie it in 2OT with 1.1 seconds left. Suns draw up an inbound play to Green, he turns and hurls a 3 that goes right in at the buzzer. Good for him. He was having a mostly dreadful shooting night, but he made the one that counted. A bright spot on an otherwise rough night for Suns news.

I was all ready to come on and give a different perspective on Jalen's game.....

Like "Krypt" said, it was cool of Ott to still go to him at the end but I kept saying man we keep calling Jalen's number although he's struggling

Plus I felt Grayson and Collin were deferring to him too much. It's good to see how much they believe in him but he got the ball with under 6secs left in the shot clock way too much.

I was also shocked at how many minutes he played and again felt like asking him to create wasn't the best call but hey

The box score wouldn't show it but he did make some good unselfish decisions in the 4th and OT that led to Grayson clutch baskets but his pick and roll reads still has to improve.
If he doesn't have the first option he pulls the ball out probably saying he has to create 1v1 while other guards might try a re-screen and do the action again

Anyways glad such a "terrible" game could end in a win because the post game chatter might have been ugly...
