    for the most part, Ant looked like a willing passer. He had some MeJ stretches, but not as much as other games. He shouldn't have shot 8 more times than Grant though, because Grant had it going

    and, Portland's defense was good, but my gawd the Suns were chucking a lot of bricks tonight

    That was not a nice comment on my part. I am sure my Sponsor would want me to make amends for that but he is OOT.

    I missed the first half — what happened to Sharpe?

    He came in with an adductor injury and probably wasn't feeling right so I'm guessing they just pulled the plug.

    Gordon & Goodwin shot 2-14.

    Ant plays Booker to a draw tonight while getting continually trapped and doubled. The same Booker that is a Top 3 SG in the league.

    Has it ever been more blatant that this boner is trying to recruit Simons over to his garbage ass boss?

    Billups said he "liked everything about DA's game tonight."

    Might be a bit generous. I didn't realize he played 40+ minutes!

    This was a quality win and in the end Ayton won the Nurk matchup on pts and rebounds and +/-
    Simons finally hit an endgame sealer...seems like a long time since he has...could be wrong but still..good to see.

    Over 40% on the year. 39% last year. Not exactly a guy you want to leave open.

    Much better team ball from him tonight. Makes me wonder if Billups was in his ear about it
