[Strenuus]

Lmao. I'm still tempering expectations but this is fun.

 

[Strenuus]

Also, this is why you don't overract after one game or a preseason. Either way.

 

[MickZagger]

Where’s Tripiani? Always has a shit ton to talk but silent now

 

[HailBlazers]

Lmao. I'm still tempering expectations but this is fun.

Are the Suns on a B2B or do we actually have a defense?

 

[FlashWad]

It's been a while since we have seen a win. It feels good.

 

[Driew]

Are the Suns on a B2B or do we actually have a defense?

Both?

 

[Strenuus]

Lmaaaaaaao WE LOBBIN FOOLS NOW.

 

[wizenheimer]

Holy Crap, I could make a lot of money off this game.made a bet with a friend I’ve never made before. Friend kept trying to get me to bet and finally offered — I owe $1 for every point the Blazes lose by, but he owes me$20 for every point the Suns lose by.offer was too good so I agreed. If Blazers hold their lead I’ll snag $400 and bragging rights Still half to play.

34 point lead now....$680 for you....buy a round for the guys here

 

[Strenuus]

Greg brown NBA debut!

 

[Strenuus]

Hahahahaha. Ben doin it

 

[julius]

For a guy who's going to be out of the league shortly, Simons sure seems to be playing well.

 

[DDolla]

We are blowing teams now without Dame heroics?

 

[Strenuus]

First nba game. Gets a tech. Brown is gonna be alright.

 

[HailBlazers]

Steal to a fastbreak ally oop dunk who is this team!?

 

[Strenuus]

We are blowing teams now without Dame heroics?

Woah woah woah...

 

[DDolla]

DSJ with some great dimes

 

[Hoopguru]

Nice to have a legit bu pg.
Geez…Brown & Little could be a fun duel to watch!

 

[TBpup]

Liking both Little and Simons. Both seem to be much better under Billups. What a difference!

What Stotts did to Nas last year (3 minute runs over and over) was the last straw. It was ridiculously stupid and flat disrespectful. Glad to see some actual coaching, a little faith, and no immediate dog collar yank is having a positive result.

There will still be ups and downs, but Nas has tools. Develop them.

 

[B-Roy]

Dame looks happy.

 

[wizenheimer]

We are blowing teams now without Dame heroics?

something is wrong with that sentence

 

[Freshtown]

This is fun. But I hate that I’m worried about Norm.

 

[TBpup]

The bench looking good....except for Elleby.

 

[riverman]

This is fun.....fans needed this one!

 

[wizenheimer]

did anybody see what happened to Powell?

 

[Hoopguru]

Thanks Neil for some nice acquisitions!

 

[Eastoff]

something is wrong with that sentence

How can anything that feels so great be wrong?

 

[Idog1976]

We are blowing teams now without Dame heroics?

Well that's speculative, but what the players do on their own time is up to them.

 

[blazerkor]

Helluva game from the whole team but CJ led the way... lets hope Norm is fine.

 

[Idog1976]

Did Norm get hurt? I missed that. I wasn't watching the first half closely sadly.
