The Suns beat the Sixers 115-101 at the US Airways Center. It was probably the most helter-skelter game the team's taken part in this season. The teams combined for 41 turnovers and many more sloppy encounters.
Thaddeus Young led the Sixers with 30 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 steals. While he battled foul trouble early on, he recovered to have a strong offensive second half. Miles Plumlee scored a career-high 22 points, primary against whatever defense Spencer Hawes attempted to play.
Honestly, this game shouldn't have been as close as it was. Most of Phoenix's three point attempts were wide-open, but they had an off-night (possibly attributable to their playing on back-to-back nights). It didn't matter, though. The tank is that impenetrable.
