THIs win is all on Kyrie. He put the team on his back offensively and got a key contest on Bookers layup that was huge

Kyrie: Defensive stopper!

Also got two key steaks, one in the 4th and another one in OT

Medium rare?

Kyrie was huge including defense. Morris was no slouch either. JB was big at times but two important missed rebounds. Luckily we outlasted. Hopefully we take the momentum into Utah.

Games like tonight are why I’m a fan. That was a gutty, do not quit, come from way behind sweet victory. I know, the Suns, but doesn’t matter. Love it.

The nearly impossible almost happened. A team that never led for 4 quarters won the game. If Kyrie didn’t start the game with a 3, they would have done it.

So after Stevens got so much blame for the first half does he get some love for the comeback win?
Yep. He did a lot better riding Kyrie in this game compared to against Denver

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)

PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

Is there any doubt who the best player on this team is?  The unselfish-to-a-fault mindset of the starting five needs to end.  This is Kyrie's team and everything needs to flow through him until somebody else proves that they deserve a share of that responsibility.

Talk about Jekyll and Hyde shooting!

Maybe they just needed the first 3 quarters to loosen up. Thankfully we were playing the Suns.

Glad they pulled this one out, I can't imagine the morale would've been great if we lost.

Shows how strong a team you are when you play that bad for 3 quarters and can still pull out a win.

I’ve said this about them all season - to be 7-4 not playing that well is great. When this team puts it together for 48 minutes they’re going to take some stopping.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Hot mess of a game with a little creeping back for the first 10.5 of the 4th then a LOT of coming back after that.

We've got problems that need addressing fast. But Kyrie was an absolute beast, Brown and Morris played hard and well, and we got there. I'll take it.

Ribeye steaks?  I would have enjoyed that, but regretted in the morning.   :)

Kyrie giving away his jersey and sneakers to Celtics fans in Phoenix.

How awesome is that.
