Vogel said it’s a bit of a surprise that L.A.’s 5th-most used line up (Westbrook, Bradley, Monk, Johnson, LeBron) has played only 36 min. together (13.5 net rating), but not really. Injuries/absences been story of season. Huge diff. compared to GSW PHX and UTA’s top lineups: pic.twitter.com/BOfYU1LeOG – 8:50 PM

Jalen Smith is slow to make his way off the floor after catching an inadvertent elbow from JV. Smith is headed to the locker room.
Kind of surprised the refs didn’t review that one. – 8:50 PM

Oh man. Jalen Smith took a shot from Jonas Valanciunas’ free arm. Unintentional but basically hit him right in the face. Timeout called as Stix stays down. – 8:50 PM

Sometimes if you just stand in front of a big guy and lean on him a little bit, he’ll not go nearly as hard on the offensive glass.
Looks like that’s what happened with Payton on Valanciunas.

I hope the “Feed DA” crowd has noticed how productive McGee, Stix, Biyombo, etc. have been — not as a knock on Ayton in any way, shape or form, but as a refutation of the idea that the Suns don’t run offense for him.
The system puts centers in positions to succeed – 8:33 PM

Wishing Julie Fie nothing but the best in her new role with the Suns and Mercury. She’s a living legend, gave me the chance to start pursuing my dreams covering the NBA seven years ago and is a world-class human being – 3:21 PM

Suns announced a shuffle in their communications team, which includes the legend Julie Fie moving into a role w/ the alumni program after 23 years as VP of basketball communications. She could not have been more respected by the media, players, coaches, etc. and will be missed. – 3:09 PM

Greg Oden played in a total of 82 games over his first three NBA seasons.
Zion Williamson, now in his third NBA season, has played in a total of 85 games.
Let’s hope Zion can add some games to his resume sooner rather than later. – 2:28 PM
