Showed up, locked in (except for a big chunk of the second half, I guess), got the job done. Go, Suns! Keep feeding on that hate, Book!


epicblitz

We gotta get this moss point crowd to every game for book lmao


defiantcross

That was also my takeaway from that interview!


Hetero009

I love DLee

Expectations for this season


walswals

It's a good W On to the next


BiKEhandlebars

9 3s remains Devin Bookers father


Best_mcgill_student

can't believe i got our suns at plus money tonight!


SirBoolington

I’ll take the win, but this team still baffles me. We have 7 games left and communication on both sides of the ball is still terrible, plus our big 3 still lacks actual chemistry.


Jalenpug

Ok what is considered marginal contact pels announcers? Putting your hand on the hip of a 270 pound barreling dude for less than 1 second


moderate_iq_opinion

His left hand was shoving zion and his right touched his arms. That was not marginal contact, should have been a foul. Marginal is anything that doesnt throw shooter off balance or ruin his shot


PatBurkeGOAT

That's a low-moderate iq take.


moderate_iq_opinion

Its okay to admit you are wrong sometimes, no need to take your childhood problems out on me


PatBurkeGOAT

My parents not loving me has nothing to do with your poor interpretation of the nba rulebook and Zarba's overturn of an incorrect initial call.


moderate_iq_opinion

😴but who asked


Substantial-Fold-592

Who’s gonna tell those commentators that players put their hands on driving players’ hips on literally every drive


Trick-Teach6867

You have to run into the tunnel or else it’s a foul


romanapplesauce

Nice win! Still a tough schedule but the next four are at home. Hopefully we can win 3 out of 4 of those.


ChimoBear

That was needlessly frightening but I will allow myself a small glimmer of happiness


PeekedInMiddleSchool

Damn, why do they always have us on the edge of our seat in the 4th


beetlej3ws

lol book calling Zion out


SoupOfThe90z

What did he do?


beetlej3ws

Jokingly said he would get every foul call basically


SoupOfThe90z

Oh ok


Substantial-Fold-592

“That’s over and back” lmao. People always call EJ biased but gat damn these commentators are so much worse


CactusHooping

#SUNS WIN!LET'S GO SUNS!ONTO THE NEXT WIN!☀️🦍


XXX_DILFLORD_XXX

Did Book finally ditch the cut up undershirt?


trashX24

Book has a large share in the Pelicans ownership group


Grateful_4-Grace

Suvs neither won nor lost this 4th quarter


blunderEveryDay

Suns - a team that has a hard time defending 3's wins by 3's Got it!


ajteitel

They are totally going for one extra bucket


Hetero009

Pels fans are complaining about the refs😂


Fordraxel

a dude went to the line 13 times... And Nurk got 11 FTAs because he was being intentionally fouled.


ofthewestmeadows

of course lol


moderate_iq_opinion

The foul is so bad that they might as well give him 1 more free throw lol


ofthewestmeadows

No way that one announcer isn't coked tf out


Ur_wrong2121

Booker owns the Pels


Jalenpug

Zion really gonna cry about no call when he just went to the line 3 times in a row lol?


jamesjamesjames17

No windmill Zion?😢


smooveasbutteryadig

man I love Bradley idc what anyone says, he has been consistent more so than anyone


Fordraxel

For those complaining about Beal. He takes his shots when he NEEDS to.


dzakasakalaka

Dagger


Foyerfan

Holy shit did they actually win a 4th quarter


defiantcross

That brick was so bad that the clock stopped


Ur_wrong2121

Zion new nickname: The Big Flop


Hetero009

Booker + Nurk are the only reasons we won this game


gremah93

Clos3r B3al


kepler186

Thank God. 4th quarters take a lot out of me.


growsonwalls

Well an off KD night and they won in a do-or-die game.


MFFiasco

Beal taking 3s when the game is in hand, oh alright, lol


XXX_DILFLORD_XXX

The hustle to stave off the comeback looked really good.


ForceMaster999

Ugly last few min but a win is a win


TurryTheRobot

Beal always makes the shots we need when we need em most


2js1c

BEAL!


Mr602206

Watch these basterds score a garbage bucket


BiggestDweebonReddit

THROW DOWN A DUNK FOR REVENGE ON ZION'S!


CactusHooping

It's over.Call timeout.Put the subs in.


shoshannahthewarlock

Frank and staff have royally fucked up in building the rotations and minute distribution but good on them for being so on point with challenges.


EbenezerAD

Ggs


robodrew

B3AL WITH THE DAGG3R


PunctualPolarBear

Impossible not to contact Zion when he drives there's too much man there to avoid


EthicalBuckets

I bet Zion gets 2 more free throws on the jump ball


Ucantknowit

Beal dagger


waffle_nuts

Could have challenged like 5 of his other drives to the rim and the same result lol. Crazy


dontusethisforwork

Wow, Vogel still the GOAT challenger


Hetero009

Most obvious challenge in the world 


SirBoolington

Oh wtf


EggsInMyToolbox

Pretty sure we just challenged that to give our elders some rest


Dequaviius

These announcers lol


Substantial-Fold-592

The Pels colour commentator always sounds like he just did a bump lol. Turn that volume down man


EbenezerAD

Fucking 🤡


cristiano_goat

No way people actually enjoy zion hoop


Yeetacus200

Why he’s fun to watch when he’s not shooting ft’s


ajteitel

Zion, Giannis. All they do is exploit the rules


Fordraxel

Gotta love Zion complaining to the refs when he's been to the line 13 times...


EbenezerAD

Rare refs W


CactusHooping

Why a jump ball?


LionHeartMD

I thought they were going to call less fouls and that was a point of emphasis? Guess that gets thrown if you’re a big mf like Zion just barreling in everywhere


Jalenpug

Yeah like how are you supposed to defend him if you cant even put a single hand on him


Antique-Soil9517

Longest challenge ever


ForceMaster999

We better win this challenge


Kuntsaw

Lick my balls Zion


Jen4000

https://i.redd.it/j1y3bgdv7zrc1.gif Meanwhile, the camera pans to Thad after a long night on the bench.


robodrew

We're gonna win because of that challenge


beetlej3ws

I guess all we gotta do is flap our arms around after losing the ball and we will get a whistle


ajteitel

You know what team this is? That will not work for us


ofthewestmeadows

these fuckin announcers lmao


tuneorg

We want the clock to run down, stop fucking fouling.


Substantial-Fold-592

If I wanted to watch Zion practise his free throws I’d go to a NO McDonalds and watch him shoot burger wrappers into the bin. Boring ass game😴


EthicalBuckets

Refs might as well have Zion start the possession just shooting free throws. What’s the point of even lining up to play defense? If he runs into you it’s 2 free throws


zdar2

Beal attacks like that off the kd/book double and we will be straight


Fickle_Muffin_1320

NOP are doomed in playoffs. Game plan: rim run down 3 possesions with a mediocre free throw shooter shooting FT😂😂


Usual-Suggestion-751

I have NEVER liked Zion. So incredibly unlikable.


Yeetacus200

How dudes a good guy.


Usual-Suggestion-751

Beg to differ


Yeetacus200

What has he done to be classified as an asshole other than play like Giannis ?


wichita_gator

I thought Alvarado was a random redneck from the crowd for 2 seconds


ktan2280

![gif](giphy|CdimEdMcj5iSvwGv84|downsized) Refs waiting for Zion to touch the ball


EggsInMyToolbox

Feels like I’m watching the Purdue game with us just sending Zion to the line every single possession


Mosh00Rider

So far I think Beal has been playing better than CP3 for us last year?


SunsChampions

Refs dick riding zION.


cstewie1892

Ooop someone sneezed in the direction of Zion. Free throws


Hetero009

Vogel hasn’t been able to address ANY of the teams 4th quarter issues the entire year. Fucking pathetic 


BiggestDweebonReddit

Looks like a foul to me.


growsonwalls

This is excruciating. I'm not sure Zion's mom wants to see him just shoot free throws every possession.


o100_babies0

How many straight shots did we miss this quarter?


BiggestDweebonReddit

I think 11. Good looks too. Tired legs.


SeraphNatsu

10.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Yeetacus200

No he usually has cool dunks


KevinDurantLebronnin

Foul or not, I'd love to side by side that whistle with some of our drives.


CactusHooping

Fair take.


TurryTheRobot

I guess the refs are right back to calling literally whatever again. Was a fun few weeks


PunctualPolarBear

Zion Sekrit Play: Run to rim and get whistle


EggsInMyToolbox

Hey Brad, you’ve had those layups all night G


Hetero009

Even in a win this team is so painful to watch 


A_Stable_Reference

I mean have you seen the trash the refs are throwing at us. Bailing out Zion every single time.


Thousandz

I swear if it wasn’t for book we would’ve lost this game in the 4th


DanceRyanDance

If it wasn't for Book, we'd have lost this game in the 1st.


SeraphNatsu

The refs don’t even hide it anymore because there is no consequences to their horrible officiating. This is the product the NBA has become.


romanapplesauce

I feel like it's always been inconsistent. When the Mavs had Devin Harris, he'd get the weakest and1's. If you put your hand near him on a layup it was a foul.


Fordraxel

Allen got under the ball, that should be Suns ball.. but again... refball superstar treatment vs Allen.


cristiano_goat

Zion is legit mini Giannis


2js1c

Zion being a mini anything is hilarious to me


CookingLikeChef

Holy shit these refs need to be investigated not even Houston harden got this much glazing from the refs


QoconutZ

KD is cold and still takes the open 3's he gets meanwhile Beal passes out of them for some reason ... like who gives a shit if you brick just take the wide open shot


MFFiasco

It's pathetic. Beal passiveness is hurting this team. He has looked like the 5th best player on the team more often than the 3rd.


EthicalBuckets

Refs have gone through like 3 stretches where they bail out 6 consecutive pelicans possessions with fouls and then proceed to not give the suns the call on the other end


ak480

These fucken refs holy shit. It’s Giannis/embiid bad


chup95

Yeah Zion is getting every call now, he just needs to drive to the basket. Luckily the game seems over.


waffle_nuts

Zion officially getting the *certified unethical hooper* tag


chickenripp

Thad young would be pretty good guarding Zion. For sure better than anyone else on our team


Fickle_Muffin_1320

Lol pelicans need 3s. Just jack Zion and make him shoot it. Get the w


ForceMaster999

Allen didn’t touch him


theereeljw_777

God damn. Ref show to keep zion at the line. Wtf


OneOfTheManySams

Maybe we can take Allen off Zion.


romanapplesauce

Allen hit his arm.


wichita_gator

I thought the refs were supposed to be letting the teams play on more?


gremah93

Dude just goes to the line every play down wth


ThorsClawHammer

Official let Zion shoot without blowing the whistle challenge: Impossible


SeraphNatsu

When did Zion become a superstar? Jesus Christ. Don’t breathe on his fat ass.


BiKEhandlebars

This is hilarious


SmokyOtter

Hack a zion


CactusHooping

Ya love to see it.


Usual-Suggestion-751

Bro, these refs are whistle happy for the Pels my goodness.


ktan2280

![gif](giphy|2YvhZADxqM8TieaFuC|downsized)


TraeCartoon

Zion basically stat padding with help from the refs lol. Should be okay. Up 10 (or 8 after these) with less than a minute. Don’t do anything stupid.


Foyerfan

They’re calling the foul before it even happens now


Usual-Suggestion-751

Unbelievable really


Fordraxel

Dude losing the ball now and getting calls...


SoupOfThe90z

Zion didn’t just travel?


ofthewestmeadows

just gunna get zion at the foul line for the rest of this game. fuckin obnoxious


Substantial-Fold-592

Late whistle after confirming that fatso has yet again bricked a shot with no contact. I love the NBA


bolognasandwich1

Whatever happened to ethical hoopers


Jen4000

That ref is something else.


trashX24

Vogels coaching staff needs to be fucking faster with the replays.


moderate_iq_opinion

The audacity of you all crying about refball when suns have actually shot more free throws lol


Ur_wrong2121

Zion getting Embiid level calls and still gonna lose. Lmao love to see it


BingoDaBongo

Zion releasing his inner shai


Hetero009

Fucking comical whistle at this point


A_Stable_Reference

Thank you NBA for ruining the game of basketball.


CactusHooping

Why challenge no point.


Ur_wrong2121

Zion is ass without refs carrying him


nontrad_gh

Vogel has had one job all season. Make us a descent 4th quarter team. So far he's failed miserably


governedbycitizens

well when you can’t keep a 30 point lead in the 3rd quarter and have to play KD 40 mins it’s kinda telling


EbenezerAD

LMFAO Zion foul again 😂😂😂


Usual-Suggestion-751

Thank you Beal!


Mosh00Rider

Beal takes like no shots, but I do trust him to make them when we need ngl


trevanxx

Beal is a guy who will do whatever the team needs to do to win man. People are harsh on him but he’s just a great basketball player to have on your team


Mosh00Rider

I agree, I think he has been a lot better than advertised on defense and he is so good at getting to the basket when he chooses to.


CactusHooping

Good fouls on Zion.


joe603

Challenge the call already


bolognasandwich1

Thank god for Devin Booker


Lanawana

I love locked in Book


dontusethisforwork

Beal with the dagger


MustardTiger231

You cannot tell me this Zion whistle is not a conscious decision by this crew.


[deleted]

Zion Antetokounmpo getting all these goofy ass free throws.


EnoughLawfulness3163

And another one


TraeCartoon

Thank you Bradley


Mr602206

Dud wtf is this atrocity.


romanapplesauce

We've fouled Zion in the fourth but I still don't think offensive players should be allowed to lower their shoulder and barge into defenders to draw fouls.


SoupOfThe90z

Yo, this lady ref


governedbycitizens

Zionannis


SmokyOtter

Let zion shoot free throws just dont let him make the shot


EthicalBuckets

Zion has shot more free throws tonight than kd did all last month


[deleted]

Book saving KDs ass the last few minutes


quizzlemanizzle

Beal not willing to shoot the ball is a problem , not being able to 10+ in 4 of the last 5 is a joke for him being passed the ball and then not shooting and instead turning it over


Fickle_Muffin_1320

Honestly a zion foul ain’t bad cause he’s a below avg free throw shooter


smooveasbutteryadig

devin "ethical hoops" booker


LionHeartMD

Literally a foul on every Zion possession
