Did the suns really take 52 free throws in a single game or did I just have a weird fever dream for 3 hours?


LeanMike1

Durant is so good man, ggs


MrBrownCat

The Lakers Mavs game started like 30 mins after this one and they ended at the same time. Scott Foster masterclass tonight, 81 FTs, 5 technicals, 1 ejection, 3 hour game. Put him in the MVP conversation!


morcic

Warriors got no game, so Kerr puts in his enforcers to hack and bruise the Suns until they quit attacking the paint, and then all of you bitch about 52 FTs? Take that L.


Killuaaaaaaa1

2nd quarter is close until the Refs help the Suns lmfao took 20 FT in the 1st half is ridiculous


morcic

Don't foul and there won't be any FT. CP3 quit on the team, just like Draymond did. Sore losers!

Smokey_Jah

"He might tweet some things" From which burner acct is the question


wonnage

this one's definitely going into the scott foster career highlight reel


rediraim

damn, thought the extender had a few more game extensions techniques left. guess he's keeping some more in the bag for the playoffs. can't wait.


bolognasandwich1

Longer than a baseball game


CatataFishSticks

NBA gotta have some sketchy ass agreement with all these betting sponsors, and use the refs to deliver


LongjumpingTomorrow

Any explanation why the warriors never brought their starters back? This game was never out of reach but they were all sat with 7 mins left in the 4th


Airhammer

Because everytime the starters came out so did Scott's whistle


LongjumpingTomorrow

Didn’t get to watch but judging by both sets of fans in the thread sounds about right


BorisTheBlade04

THANK YOU GSW!!! WHAT A SHIT SHOW!! LOVED WATCHING THE IMPLOSION, JUST DONT BE SO DIRTY NEXT TIME!!


[deleted]

Imagine being in the crowd and going home after that


EnoughLawfulness3163

Fosters gotta go. I legit turned the game off


Complete-Speed-8825

What happened in this game, why was curry cp3 klay and wiggs out on the last 20 seconds? lmao


imaginaryResources

All ejected for technical fouls


Str82daDOME25

Cause our bench got it within 10 then the starters came back built the Suns lead back up to 17. Bench checked back in and Kerr said fuck off starters you’re not ruining this again


Complete-Speed-8825

Oh that explains it, going by the comments I thought some mass ejection happened.


jknuts1377

Man Podemzski, or however you spell his name, is going to be one of those players I can't stand for a long time. Fits with the rest of the Warriors I guess.


Str82daDOME25

Plays with the same energy as GP2 and can actually shoot


Vallerie_09

81 FTs for the game.. This is Foster's tribute to Kobe


KevinDurantLebronnin

3 hour game.


nullstellensatz1

Two minutes off the 3 hour mark


bolognasandwich1

Scott Foster is insane


KevinDurantLebronnin

GG GSW. Dumb as hell game. Tough with the absences and Scotty F at the helm. Glad Klay is hitting the groove.


Z3PHYR-

GG, that was a weird game


KabirC

52 FTs for the Suns


Str82daDOME25

And Warriors missed more :/


machinich_phylum

Joke.


Otaku_Instinct

Scott Foster was putting up Wilt Chamberlain numbers tonight


JaylenBrownsChakras

Booker stretching his arms into a hoop like you would do to a little kid lmao


xxxIAmTheSenatexxx

What a masterclass by Scott Foster. 3 hour game! 80 ft attempts??? What a God.


alexjimithing

Foster gets the game ball LETS GOOOOOOO


Vallerie_09

52 FTs for Phx


[deleted]

Golden State needs to be better in the paint. Clearly an issue. The only guy who can do this is Looney, and expecting him to be consistent at it for every possession he's on the floor is unfair


chuckercarlson

Back to back for phoenix


morcic

Well, stop fauling! Lol!


machinich_phylum

Inconsistent whistle.


Random0cassions

50 FREE THROWS holy fuck


iAmTheRealLange

Why is Bill S. Preston talking to KD


Rich-Positive8941

lmfao


McSkittlez_

Missed the whole game. Glad I got to see the end of it. Crazy.


scaredspoon

it was just free throws for 3 hours


TheSouthNeverRises

KD is Steph Curry father.


Airhammer

KD must be proud then considering his son has been so much more successful


moneyman259

Except in 2016?


816kc

And curry is lebrons father


[deleted]

Let's keep it respectful. They're both incredible players. These are two teams figuring out the process, and the Suns did an incredible job at it tonight.


hezzanity247

Let it end already lol


The_Nutz16

This is real deal one of the weirdest, worst basketball games I have ever watched.


thorjustice1

Podz looking like Carmy from The Bear lowkey


growsonwalls

I LOVE THE BEAR!!!


jonsnowKITN

50 FREE THROWS???


[deleted]

Brandin Podziemski and Kevin Durant are gonna be pals. Man was having a networking session


multiple4

So a player can visibly shove your with their forearm, and if the ref thinks you shouldn't have lost your balance it's a technical on you for flopping, and no foul on the player who literally pushed? Joke of a league.


livejamie

I refuse to believe you're not trolling rn


SelfinvolvedNate

Bro have you ever been touched by a other human being before


morcic

Lmao!!!!


FoxglitterFlier

No shot you're arguing that wasn't a flop


multiple4

It probably was. It was also a foul, probably a technical, for blatantly pushing a dude.


Airhammer

If that was flop then the Okagie/CP foul was a flop and they reviewed that shit


howmanyballs

"Shove" is doing heavy lifting there buddy


ShoeBabyBurntToast

SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED!


infomusic

What a majestic dumpster fire this has been. GG y'all. Happy Thanksgiving


SeekerSpock32

The endings of NBA games need to be better.


Rowdy_Bull

Ref triple double


gbassman5

I dunno why, but the hands on the hips as KD bends over makes it hilarious


bmk0

What’s the record for free throws shot in a regulation game?


livejamie

This wouldn't even make the top 30


BorisTheBlade04

THATS THE WRONG GUY TO TALK SHIT TO BROCCOLI HEAD


2ChainzThirdChain

No consistency on the flop calls


Honor_Bound

KD weights 100 pounds you know that was a flop lmao


Airhammer

They reviewed the Okagie/CP foul and didn't overturn it. In context that 100% was not a flop lol


deadwinged

comedy


EnoughLawfulness3163

God this was unwatchable.


MELOPOSTMOVES

Refs building personal YouTube mixtapes with this game


bolognasandwich1

Foster is in the flow state rn


Otaku_Instinct

nah this is actually hilarious 🤣🤣


chickenripp

what a strange fucking game


FerdinandMagellan999

I just checked in. Can someone explain why this warriors lineup has played so much this half?


Z3PHYR-

The starters got beat by like 15-20 points but somehow our bench unit brought us back in the game. Kerr decided to reward them for their effort and let them close the game. Also at some point when he briefly did try putting steph and klay back in we started losing again lol.


chickenripp

Kerr seemed to waive the white flag midway through the 3rd for some reason. Vogel kept trying to pull KD and booker as if the game was over. and the warriors deep bench lineup kept making runs every time they went out. It's one of the weirds games of coaching choices I've ever seen. Combine that with a Scott foster career night and you get a combination for a strange night. By the end of the game with book and KD coming in and out so much our energy was weird and lazy as if the game was over so we almost blew the game with bad turnovers and some untimely misses.


Usual_Adhesiveness92

Scott Foster legacy game


Str82daDOME25

Podz really trying to take advantage of the Foster legacy game


Usual_Adhesiveness92

Flew too close to the sun


rediraim

the real question is, if this goes to OT who is Kerr playing?


Str82daDOME25

Cliff Paul


CraptacularJourney

Not gonna lie, I am excited for the PODZ era in golden state


HealthyHurry2672

He’s a baller for sure


JaylenBrownsChakras

Very on-brand for a Warriors player


JackBlacksVoice

Rent free


JaylenBrownsChakras

lol 🌽


JonnyZero0

hahaha a flop T, hes a true Warrior now


livejamie

Gobert better watch his back


HilariousScreenname

This game is an absolute clown show


Alarming_Condition93

Worth it just to laugh at this leprechaun flopping and chirping. Rofl


gbassman5

PotG Scott Foster


_____WESTBROOK_____

Okay again what is this game lmao


[deleted]

LMAO


growsonwalls

LOL a flop technical. Scott Foster is on one tonight


MrDeeds_

The O/U is 233 lol. This is little too obvious Scott


KabirC

LMAO Okogie flying around all first half and they call that?


2ChainzThirdChain

Lmaooo WTF is going on


Smokey_Jah

This is almost a 3 hr game....


CoolGrandpa1932

80 FTA is not very fun to watch.


Brady331

Refs can't even call fouls correctly when they're intentional


yeahscene

Why Kd and book even still in the game


GotKarprar

It was a 4 point game seconds ago??


Raimeiken

Ahahaha this game


alexjimithing

gonna get my son a foster poster


theraarman

Why are curry and klay off?


GerdsLaRana

Steve “Saddam Hussein” Kerr


theraarman

Explain pls :( in game load management?


GerdsLaRana

Genuinely have 0 clue. Curry hasn’t been doing too hot this game but even so I’d take that bet 100% of the time over fucking Cojo and Podz


yOjiMbOoOs

Wtf did cojo not foul him there?


abcbass

Scott forster makes you think he's on your side just so he can stab you in the back


[deleted]

GODS STRONGEST REF


gbassman5

All the other teams are just grateful they don't have Scott Foster tonight/tomorrow


KevinDurantLebronnin

Even if Scott Foster is 100% by-the-book and legitimate (wild hypothetical but bear with me), I don't understand how the league doesn't see any problem that star players just openly think he's corrupt lol. Remember DLo "Scott foster y'all. Scott foster reffing."


Vallerie_09

He probably makes league money and that's all


M00se_Knuckle

Should intentionally miss the technical free throw


[deleted]

Why lmao


nullstellensatz1

This is unreal. The Suns are not a serious basketball team


AwesomeKosm

Yeah just a 5 game win streak without Beal. What a bunch of bums


nullstellensatz1

Two things can be true. The Suns have been winning games and this kind of execution is amateurish


AwesomeKosm

70% of their roster is turned over and they've played 14 games together minus Beal. Stop bringing that weird energy in here


livejamie

Average unflaired /r/nba user take


JaylenBrownsChakras

Hurry up I need my rest so I can get drunk and fight my dad tomorrow


thorjustice1

Scott Foster is a literal gangster lmaooo


JJBro1

Scott foster would love being an umpire


rediraim

YES THAT'S MY GOAT REF!!!


Rowdy_Bull

Refs win


AwesomeKosm

Scott Foster thinks we're all here to watch him blow his little whistle all night lol


bam1789-2

Scott Foster on one tonight!


FoxglitterFlier

He threw it so softly, that's absolutely pathetic. I mean, thank you for saving us Scott


DharmaPT

Scott Foster ladies and gentleman


Alarming_Condition93

honestly, how is scott foster still in the league? This is egregious.


AlexTheGiant21

I don’t know man, I’m just here.


Random0cassions

Scott foster officially the ref of all refs time


BoilerMaker11

Kerr doesn’t care about this game. The backups got the game within 2 possessions and simply subbing in Steph and Klay would mean it’s one possession right now cause they wouldn’t brick FTs. I’m so confused why he’s not putting his starters in other than he just doesn’t care


MagicalHurdles

thanksgiving they're all mentally checked out


LeanMike1

Foster give, Foster take


koiz_01

THE EXTENDER TRYING TO EXTEND


JonnyZero0

This is a top 10 Foster legacy game, so inspiring


Kal-Kent

Durant are you drunk?


YEGGSnBACON

If I was a suns fan, I’d be so hot right now


XtremeBadgerVII

This is every game of Arizona sports I expect this every night


Mikeylatz

Cause they’re suns?


multiple4

The Warriors are great, but sometimes they're just embarrassing. This game is a perfect example. They always have these games where one of their players bitches about things, then Kerr goes along with it, the entire team loses focus, and they lose If their bench comes back to win this it would amazing. And would prove that the mental focus and toughness is way more important than being good at basketball


cbarbs

What a horrendous fucking basketball game


Zavehi

Scott forgot he bet +3.5


b5dass

Tech was weak as hell


CatataFishSticks

Scott Foster definitely bet his entire life savings on this one


xxxIAmTheSenatexxx

Scott is cooking


alexjimithing

Foster undisputed GOAT


PulpyWulpy

All time game by Scott Foster.


yOjiMbOoOs

Lol. Wtf scott foster


ptfc5721

Scott foster is a fucking legend


DorkandPoon

Career game for Scott


HealthyHurry2672

I like how Kerr kept in the boys that even got the warriors this close, let em play


[deleted]

Dario Saric is the Dubs' most valuable player not named Steph imo.


slutwhipper

The Suns REALLY want to lose this game.


Townster

What a strange game


PacoTaco000

Sooo many calls tonight that should’ve been non calls lol refs working tonight


Random0cassions

This game is legendary for all the wrong reasons


PatientMonarch

Shit, it's honestly comical.


azcardfan7

KD is amazing but he's a turnover machine.


FoxglitterFlier

Did he just tech him for throwing the ball at the stanchion? Scott Foster legacy game


StarRevolutionary906

Why would KD throw it to Booker right there. So dumb.


rogozh1n

Why not throw it into the 7 footer who is a great ft shooter?


gbassman5

Dang nice job on that steal and score


Yulluly

Scott Fosters's 13 points in 33 seconds.


[deleted]

Scott Foster needs to actually be punished for a game like this


wonnage

LMFAO scott foster the GOAT


Usual_Adhesiveness92

Wtf is this game


mrwhite2323

LMAO SCOTT FOSTER


imaginaryResources

If GS doesn’t try that stupid missed free throw it’s a 2 point game lol


SeekerSpock32

Main character syndrome


_____WESTBROOK_____

Bruh what is this game


nearlyned

honest question what the fuck is going on


Honor_Bound

This is the worst game I’ve ever watched


nullstellensatz1

WHAT ARE THE SUNS DOING


kolraisins

This game is wild


The_Phreak

Scott Foster on one


Kilner88

Legacy game for Foster, incredible performance
