Brown just wouldn't flag...so I had to take out more than half of his holdings. He then proceeded to cuss at me after he'd flagged to surrender. Another juicy little tid-bit is that Nicole Blackford (married to Chris Blackford, one of my all-time best friends) is also a player of kdice. Below is a picture of one of her latest dominating wins. I'll definitely be looking to beat "signingtime" whenever I see her on kdice. Muahahahahaha...ah-ha?
The Suns (57 - 19) took on a sub-par team tonight and let them stay in the game the whole way...again. It seems that the Suns cannot just give themselves an easy night: each match-up has to be a hard one. In Oklahoma City, the Suns scored 37 points in the opening quarter (they way it should be done) to the Hornets (35 - 41) 23. Then the Suns lost the next three quarters, but only by two points each quarter, so the Suns ended up winning by 8 points, 103 - 95. Both Marion and Nash earned double doubles; 20 pts, 11 boards, and 15 pts, 12 dimes, respectively. Stat went 5 of 7, but got in foul trouble fast, so only played 21 minutes. All starters, other than Diaw, scored in double figures, and so did Barbosa and James Jones. Overall, it was a good game, but the Suns should have put it away much earlier, and won by many more points. It's alright: we still got a win. The next game is Sunday in LA against the Lakers (39 - 36) on ABC at 12:30m AZ time. Only six more games to go, and we play the Lakers twice in those games. We just need to get it done. Gotta stay ahead of San Antonio (2.5 games right now). GO SUNS!
