They didn't see this coming but the Phoenix Suns did as it was billed ex-Clips Back Up PG Eric "Birmingham Baron" Bledsoe vs Clips Starting PG CP3 and unfortunately for the Clips it never got to that match up.
Behind a 61-40 halftime lead and leading by 29 points in the 3rd frame the Phoenix Suns go into Staples Center "LA Sports Arena" Set Up and smack the Clips. This is a reminder that Teams should never worry about New Year's plans and preparations until and they should let other worry about that if this was the case. The Suns get 26 points from Combo G Goran Dragic along with eight helpers as his partner in crime E-Bledsoe only had seven points. It was also Suns 6th Man and possible NBA Sixth-Man of the Year Award Winner Gerald Green who has 21 points off the bench including a memorable 14 points in the 2nd frame.
The Clips on the other hand looked spent as they couldn't buy a bucket let alone make one. Point God CP3 had just 11 points and seven assists as the Blake Show muscled up 15 points with DeAndre Jordan grabbing 19 Oranges but only two points. The Clips after a home-cooked meal shoot under 40 % from the field and the Arc. While they turn the Orange over 20 times and were -15 with the Money Ball. The Suns Bench outscored the Clips Bench 44-36 but the score would have been worse if Clips Reserves Matt Barnes (13 pts) and Darren Collison (11 pts) didn't come to play.
Suns making moves move to an impressive 19-11 before the new year and the Clips at 21-11 and all of a sudden its not the Warriors fighting the Clips in the Pacific but its the Jeff Hornacek led Suns in the Passenger Seat...Yikes!
