Dragic scores 34, Bledsoe 27; Phoenix Suns beat Indiana Pacers 116-99

The Phoenix double-point guard combination of Goran Dragic and Eric Bledsoe reminded everyone just how good they can be together. Dragic scored 34 points, Bledsoe had 27 and the Suns beat Indiana 116-99 on Tuesday night for their fourth straight victory over the Pacers. "Two electrifying guards playing together. That's a tough matchup," Indiana coach Frank Vogel said. "They have incredible speed. If you don't take care of the basketball they will expose you for 38 fast-break points, which is what happened tonight." The Suns' guards, who are getting more time together on the court with Isaiah Thomas out with an injury, combined for 22-for-35 shooting. Dragic matched his season high for a game with 22 first-half points, and Bledsoe scored 21 in the second half. Dragic made five of six 3-pointers, Bledsoe had seven assists. "Finally, you know, we've been struggling a little bit," Bledsoe said. "This game really was easy for us."
