Game Day: Blazers (28-36) @ Suns (22-44), Sun 3/12/17

Post by Superbone »

Time: 6:00 pm AZ (6:00 pm PT/9:00 pm ET)
Place: Talking Stick Resort Arena, Phoenix, AZ
TV: FSAZ, NBALP

Two teams who had opposite results last night. Suns of course won on Booker's buzzer beater as he took over the game down the stretch while the Blazers blew a 21 point lead and lost in OT on a controversial non-call as Markieff Morris stepped out of bounds before hitting the game winner.

Go Suns!!!

At the game tonight with some awesome seats. Bender is dressed out and warming up. He just splashed home 9 3s in a row from the top of the arc.

No mention of him playing from anywhere. We probably won't see him play tonight but good to see he is almost back.

Why would he dress for the game if they're not planning for him to play at least a little?

McCollum is torching EB so far. If you go under the screen he's going to kill you all night and EB isn't in a fighting mood.
Go Suns!

Not as much ball movement or player movement tonight. I'd like to see them work to get each other easy shots.

The Suns could offer a promotion like a free steak dinner for every fan whenever we hold an opponent to less than 30 points in a quarter. They'd never have to pay up.

Bender ended up waking back into the tunnel 20 minutes before the game started and changed into street clothes. Sorry for the false alarm : (

Yeah, but Bledsoe is almost an all-star.
