OKC came out on fire as they came downhill on the Suns and Suns Nation testing that new Suns Engine. These new Suns though are a different animal as their exciting new back court goes off versus the Thunder handing them another "L".
The Thunder leading 65-61 at the break came out flat as the Suns took full advantage of them and moving out to a 101-98 lead after three. The Suns then close the deal after the game went nip and tuck all the way to the zeroes behind the Morris Twins, El Dragic, and Gerald Green. This Green Character a former Slam Dunk Champion had a night as he goes for a carer-high 41 pints on just 22 shots including 24 of that 41 from the "Land of Plenty". The Suns shoot an amazing 15 of 27 from the Arc as Suns Point God Goran Dragic goes for 22 points with the Morris Twins combining for 39 points, nine boards, and five helpers.
OKC just could not stop Green or the Twins or even Dragic and if they want to get a Chip it has to start at the defensive end. Russ led the Regulators OKC with 36 points and had nine helpers and nine assists. KD added 34 points and seven boards as he and Russ combined to shoot 7 for 18 from 23 feet 9 inches. The Free Throw Line put OKC in harm's way as the Suns shot 39 to OKC's 19. Suns were also +10 in made Free Throws and that was the deciding factor in the Suns "W"!
Phoenix at 36-25 holds serve in the Pacific and OKC falls to 46-16 as the Spurs are 45-16...imagine that!
