Phoenix Suns vs Portland Trail Blazers Full Highlights 1st QTR | Jan 14 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

Lost three in a row their last three losses by a combined 113 points second worst three game stretch in NBA history and now they’re dealing with even more injuries no DeAndre Aton he’s missing his 11th straight game for the Blazers Bradley Beal inside nerk lost the handle

On the way up right-handed hook for Nerf to get things started I think Nerf tried to get rebounds early Moses Malone should do he should get plenty of rebounds tonight he like I mentioned Portland without four centers Baseline jumper nail there by scoot Henderson well because of that

Goal they’re going to play faster uh they’re going to spread the floor better so it’s still a different animal that you have to deal with defensively starting in a Zone against the Suns and Suns will probably see a lot of that KD straight away for three rebounded by Jabari Walker the

21-year-old second-year player out of Colorado getting the start here tonight be careful of dwap reef Sons know all about him he flourished against Phoenix in the preseason has played very well all year a foul call that will send Walker and in deflections very active on the defensive

End sun’s trying to find a seam against that zone book two dribble pull up off glass got it well I think they’ll destroy this Zone uh because I don’t think anybody in the areas can stop KD and Devon if they get the one-on-one coverage against the Zone

I think they’ll get shots all game long well that looked like a travel on scoot Henderson no call he misfires I mean you know these Euro steps that’s a double Euro can you have a Euro Step if you’re not from Europe I guess you can emulate it yeah James Capers Brent barck and

Veny Sun spreading that floor johy said they were definitely going to implement that zone switch like you want that guy to get stuck on you because now you can rooll to the post and you got a distinct Advantage scoot Henderson for three rebounded by Walker

Puts it back up and in yeah and those are the things I’m talking about right there uh yeah they’re small but they cat quick too they’re going to get to those balls hungry to get an off defensive rebound 64 early lead for Portland Bradley Beal lines up a three and knocks

It down Big Shot Beal yeah it’s just human nature too knowing going in how many players are missing for Portland you just don’t want to see the Suns take their foot off the gas pedal at any point right now yeah but your mindset should be to put them away like

That that should be your mindset good defense Inside by Nerf on wreath books setting up fi straight and sweep for three another big shot for Bradley that’s that old school mentality man you get hot it carries forward those are those threes that g Bogle wants launched and the rebuttal

Coming from Anthony Simons well this is a 30-point game for Simons I mean he’s even when they’re healthy he’s a potential 30o go-getter but now he’s going to take a ton of shots he’s coming off a game in which he went over for 10 in soda against the Wolves Anthony

Simons Baseline J straight but strong for Kevin Durant crossy Simons forgot about that yeah actually last three games he’s shooting only eight of 37 from the field averaging 10 points for Simons scoop shot and trying to tip the Miss was Henderson third o the twin of Keegan Murray who the Suns will see

Tuesday when the Sacramento Kings are in Phoenix left hand pretty fade away on the Baseline by Simons he’s averaging 24 points this season Beal feeds Grayson Allen Corner Pocket three down it goes great ball movement here by the suns in the first quarter those open Shooters two of the best three-point

Shooters in the game in KD and Grayson Allen when they’re open it’s just money KD stepping into a three too much Chas the offensive rebound was booked back comes Simons for Portland Anderson cut off there by Booker reath can shoot he makes it he was knocking that warm-ups yeah he’s had

Good games against the Suns this year KD whips it into the corner Booker head fake cut off on the Baseline by Murray and still sticks it both teams are finding the net they are heating up here in the first quarter in Chile Portland even the arena

Is cold not the players 5 minutes into this first quarter scoot Henderson has been more of a playmaker but he’s been launching threes and hits another six points for scoot six for Simons three-point lead for Portland Booker behind the line rattles off Baseline j a three but he’s such a

Tremendous mid-range player the balance of it all will always make him highly productive now the Suns need to stop the Blazers from drilling threes they start out five of seven from behind the line Beal perfect three of three from far away yeah so the Blazers have knocked

Down five so far Scoot and Simons each with two Justin manah has come in out of that break and there’s wreath at the cup he’s going to have to play a ton of minutes easier not a lot of backup centers on the roster right now he’s having fun KD chasing down his own

Miss deflected yeah yeah Bradley should have taken that right there 15 footer right there the pain that’s the part we talked about in the pregame shows you know you’re hot like he is look at that R and the decision by the Celtics to draft chony bips Grayson Allen will go to the line

Be the lead assistant he was doing TV at the time but for family reasons decided not to take that job with vogle and the Orlando Magic but vogle continued by saying he has more respect for Chanty bips than he’s got to respect him I mean he has a tremendous three-point stroke

11 points for Reed downloaded two threes Eubanks inside chasing his miss out of the pack comes Anthony Simons Simons whips it inside reath the running right-hander and then we need to find a way to get some stops here in Portland this group is getting all the shots that they

Need too deep for book Eric Gordon gingerly backpedaling as he limped back to the sun’s huddle during that timeout still grasping that left leg Murray loses it out of bounds Suns will have [Applause] it in the back court he thought obviously it was a foul on Murray as

Well he’s uh Eric Gordon is grimacing on the court right now beel thought he was filed on the release and here come the Blazers leading by seven here in the first quarter Booker tried to reach around to poke it three of wreath it did look clean New Year’s night in

Phoenix already with 30 here in the quarter Simons shooting over Eubanks the former teammates and here comes book yeah s need layup they need to get to the free throw line they they’re getting a lot of jumpers meu knocks that one down I want to see them start to try to attack the

Rim they don’t have anybody in there that they should fear in regards to blocking the shot that two draining the three a beautiful Arch on that shot and back comes Ryan ruper 19-year-old out of France ruper comes in Off the Bench and immediately deposits a [Applause]

Three Portland seven of 12 from far away here in the first quarter in and out for book suns are now five of 12 from Deep seven three-point hits for the Blazers inside of a minute to go ruper fake dribble handoff and now finds wreath shot clock is down to

Five Simons trying to create on metu spins Fades Away swatted by metu fantastic defense by chimzi Booker draws the contact bucket and one chance at a three-point play yeah that’s it sometimes when you are playing a team that is I say second quarter coming up here Sons got to be

More aggressive than get to the paint seven points for book nine for Bradley Beal to lead the Suns 9 seconds separating the game clock from the shot clock Simon pass over the outstretched arms now he brings it up into the front Court Suns five Out book going to work Rises up and

Buries it five quick points by Devin Booker Simons that’s too late would not have counted from midcourt
