Wow, that rebound-the-airball-and-beat-the-shot-clock by Dragic could not come at a better time.

Lead just went down to 4. From 23...I hope Hornacek yanks everyone in there that gave up this run.

Very impressive ball movement culminating with the triple by Green.

Another triple by Dragic, and just like that the lead is back to double digits.

What a steal by Bledsoe and Dragic with the finish! What a fun team to watch.

Dragic is the man.


And welcome back Tony!

What they just let John Wall do was fucking embarrassing.

Once they got that 25 point lead they pretty much decided to coast.

This was much more dramatic in the end than it should have been.

In their defense, they haven't exactly been in that situation, especially on the road much if at all this year.

Hopefully they learned something tonight.

Great win. Hated to see them give up the lead like that. But Bledsoe was clutch. Geez you'd think they would guard Wall a little tighter after he had like 10 pts in a row for them. Oh well. Suns win! And keep our playoff hopes alive.

That game had the very best and the very worst moments of the season. In the third quarter the ball movement, shot selection and defense were superb as the Suns built the lead to 25.

In the last 4 minutes or so, there were three Washington possessions where Phoenix played very little defense, especially when Wall rolled the ball all the way past midcourt, picked it up about 10 feet from the top of the key, and leisurely drove to the hoop unabated. That was pathetic.

What's frustrating me is that I've still yet to see that "Bledsoe defense" everyone was talking about when he was traded here. Tucker was on Wall a couple times and did well, but he absolutely burnt Eric like toast in the 4th quarter.

If we play defense like that in the playoffs it will not matter if we make it as we'll get steam rolled by San Antonio (as much as I'd like to feed them a shit burger.)

Kind of odd that Miami only has 5 more wins than we do.

And if we would have won the two games we played them, it would only be one game.
