Around SBN: Miikka Kiprusoff Wins 300th Game, Buffalo Crushes Boston

No tacos for you, Lakers fans!

Staples Center was on fire. People were happy with the shellacking the Suns were receiving. There was just one problem:

They didn't count on Louis Amundson

With a layup from Sweet Lou with 2:23 in the game, the Young Suns
made it to 100 points, completing a feat nobody in the Staples center that night thought possible:

Denying the Lakers fans free tacos.

This caused a huge uproar, and was the most exciting part of the 4th quarter, with the game long since settled around an average 20pt deficit.

-Young Suns Warming up.

 

Star-divide

We made it for the end of the d-league game, and the Young Suns started showing up early to practice before the game. They looked psyched out already.

Live game observations:

  • I think Grant Hill's foot is hurting more than he lets on.
  • Our team is completely undersized.
  • LB Has improved a lot this season. Way more active on defense and involved in the game.
  • At separate points, I heard Laker fans wonder who Tucker, Dragic, and Dudley were and why the "mighty lakers" had trouble stopping them.
  • The Young Suns play pretty well together. I hope we keep them.
  • Dragic shoots his first free throw too fast for the crowd to make noise. It amused me.
  • Shaqovic making his free throws drove them mad.
  • Dragic and Tucker are a lot better when they don't hesitate.
  • Lakers are doing a great job disrupting the Suns offense.
  • The Laker Fan's most hated Sun? Leandro Barbosa. They hate him with all the fire of Hell. It's pretty funny.
  • This loss was easier in person than the Miami game.

Staples is a weird place to watch a game. Everything is centered around the perceived majesty of the lakers, while the psyche of the Lakers fan is a mix between Hollywood self consciousness and a frat boy's sense of entitlement.

Too bad they are playing so well.

And justifies Louis Amundson contract totally!

In Nash we trust - for better and for worse...
