Suns Win!!!

Holidays are a bitch to my BSOTS activity, but this win was a good one. Markieff is looking good.. Steve is hitting crunch time shots again.. Grant BAMFing on D.. Channing with 10 boards. Good times.

BAMF goes HAM.

21-9 for Steve with just 2 TOs.

That is our man.

I think Keef is doing pretty well in that role.

And it will probably be better for him trying to find his shot alongside Nash rather than Price.

if we still had Dragic, yes

Price isnt that good a playmaker to take advantage of Frye’s tool

Steve went into beast mode and everyone started hitting their shots in the 4th quarter.

We also got ripped off by the refs. Nash hit a 3, they called it a 2, and refused t review it.

Sure

Nash would make a difference even hurt. He’s such a legend that old or hurt wouldn’t make him bad. He could be better younger, but like wine, he won’t get worse with the age

Mark Jackson is one of my least favorite players of all time. I want him to fail hard.

Then he played total homer calling the game when the Knicks destroyed the Suns last year and I grew to hate him. Then he defended Kevin Garnett for punching Channing Frye in the junk and I came to completely despise him.

The Garnett thing is what did it for me.

I don’t pay a whole lot of attention to the commentators anyway, and the fact that he was always teamed up with Jeff Van Gundy (who I like) meant I didn’t really have much of a problem. But there is no way to defend that play.
