Phoenix Suns vs Boston Celtics 1st-QTR Highlights | March 9 | NBA Season 2024

Off the back of the rim ball batted by Horford Celtics obviously been a terrific Road Team all season 19 and 11 but they lost in Cleveland and lost in Denver this week as their net rating is exceptional they’re out scoring teams by 10 almost 11 best differential in the

League I know the Boston fans are a little nervous about quality opponents the Denver Nuggets in particular I’m not I’m not nervous for them I feel like their comportment their demeanor is very relaxing and settled Durant gets a nice friendly bounce gets his first bucket suns have been terrific at home

Recently they’ve won 10 of their last 12 they were 11 and 11 at one point at home as Horford misses Derek white the rebound finds Tatum cutting to the basket in the lay in and there’s two plays there from Derek white first the drive to create an open three and then

The hustle play to get Tatum the dunk he does so much on both ends of the floor it’s been a special season for White and the Celtics of course but white really starting to get the notice he deserves Brown stutter dribble goes right at Grayson Allen comes up

Short look like a travel to me I’ll cosign that dorsis I will coign that so here’s where I read who the officials are to point out that perhaps they missed first call already good crew tonight James Williams Shan Corbin Bren barck as JF nerkish throws it up and in

Again the big three for Phoenix only 23 games Booker missing his 14th game of the season and his fourth in a row Tatum can’t get it the fall had a couple of layups just wouldn’t go down early stolen by Brown I don’t think he’s going to miss this

One that has been a big time issue for this Phoenix Suns team throughout the course of the entire year yeah they’re 26th in the NBA in turnovers as Grayson Allen quickly scores down the other end kayen Brown he was magnificent in that lost to Denver had 41 and he’s

Already off to a good start here he’s been outstanding since the allstar break over 28 points a game shooting 42% from three playing like an all NBA type player like we’ve seen in the past speaking of all NBA type players Durant with four in the early going he’s had

Backto back 35 Point games again with Booker out need him to score a little bit more Derek white nice shot was defended well still put it in Phoenix has the toughest remaining schedule of all NBA teams with 19 to go nurkic threw the foul Horford didn’t

Quite agree he’s been a really good fit you know they they traded DeAndre eight in the former number one pick he fits nicely with this group well Frank vogle talked pregame with us about his improved defense just a steady Improvement throughout the season what I really love about him is on the

Offensive end facilitating as a hub uh at the high post playing in dh’s dribble handoffs with Kevin Durant just does so many good things for this team Celtics have started one for four from three Brown trying to stay with nerkach just overpowers and brown has one strong D but nerkach just too big

There and Jaylen Brown was grimacing after that transition dunk and there on that post defense after nerkish scored also grimacing looked like he was grabbing his hip or his back oh that back made him questionable prior to one game so you wonder and a little pelvic issue apparently is Bei

Lines up shot back of the rim won’t go Durant off the tip gets it shuffles it inside deflected and stolen nice pass holiday to White ahead of the pack side step layup and that layup goes down that was some pass from holiday I know but we’ve seen two Miss chippies and the

Buckets that have gone in for the Celtics in the paint are like rolling around the rim Durant deflected by holl on Kevin Durant guarding a shooter Bradley Beal in the strong side quarter and recovers to get the deflection it’s the two-way stunt he does it as well as

Anyone Bradley with the connection from three three-point range and the Phoenix goes up one brown looking frisky there drives inside had a good look just wouldn’t go down again that’s that’s now three doors white went for the steel and Beal foul by holiday that’s a smart Scout and a large

Father Brown appears to be okay now and off white Luke cornette Sam Hower in the game for the Celtics white throws it up cornette that almost went in well that was a pass Royce O’Neal throws it ahead to Beal Beal nice move can’t finish well defended by cornette here comes Brown floaters up

Shot no good nkuch another rebound Hower guarding Durant on the pullup shot nkit grabs his four port already Grayson Allen Way outside shot won’t go Allen the leading three-point shooter in the NBA percentage wise he has been on a tear recently Brown looking to post him up comes up short again cornette keeps

It alive and brown is fouled I like the initial challenge wish Devin Booker were here because with three Elite scores well he’s here but he’s not playing um would they at some point if if they got real hot one of the three would they have to send two to the ball and what

Would that mean well I think what’s interesting is Kevin Durant as he shoots right over Derk white on a tough contest Kevin Durant had Sam Hower isolated on the wing on the previous possession for the Phoenix Suns and they didn’t send a double team right so Joe Missoula is

Going to trust his guys and he’s also going to recognize time and score for when to send those doubles white scoop layup lays it up and in Zula talking earlier everybody knows about their top six but he was talking about cornet and Hower and Pritchard and that’s the word

To use JJ I trust those guys that they’ll be ready for the playoffs Durant Line Drive won’t go white gets inside beautiful look for cornette white already six points and two assists Durant back door and foul onepoint Phoenix lead Eric Gordon’s come in for the first time

White throws it up nkic deflects it but white goes right back there sticks with a play Houser off the bounce Jaylen Brown looking for an opening three-pointer way off rebound Royce O’Neal they’re now one of six from three-point range and only down by one the Celtics are on the mark from

Three-point range they’re pretty much unbeatable be scoop layup wouldn’t go white is everywhere here in the first eight minutes round nice side step gets inside backs that one home this is him in the first quarter he’s Uber aggressive we’re going to get a technical foul who on he

Is a foul 100% well you’re a shooter I mean that’s
