Phoenix, AZ (SportsNetwork.com) - Goran Dragic had 24 points, nine rebounds and five assists as the Phoenix Suns defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 115-100 on Monday night. Isaiah Thomas posted 24 points, five steals and four assists, Eric Bledsoe tallied 17 points, seven helpers and five boards and Markieff Morris added 15 points for the Suns, who have won three in a row and seven of their last nine games. Nick Young netted 24 points off the bench to lead Los Angeles, which lost its fifth consecutive contest. We turned the ball over a lot tonight, said Young. Thats one of the main reasons. Kobe Bryant sat out to rest for the Lakers. The game was tied 26-26 following a quarter of play and 51-51 at the half, but the Suns began to gradually pull away in the third. After a Jeremy Lin layup knotted the contest at 60-60, a 7-1 spurt helped Phoenix create some distance. Bledsoe nailed a 3-pointer and drove in for a layup and P.J. Tucker capped the mini run with a layup to stake the Suns to a 67-61 advantage. Phoenix upped its margin to 87-77 after three and an 11-3 burst during the early stages of the fourth created more separation. Gerald Green hit consecutive triples to highlight the surge and Marcus Morris finished it off with a trey for a commanding 102-83 spread midway through the frame. The third quarter was awesome. We played hard on both ends, defense and offense, said Dragic. Two Young triples and four-point play on three straight trips up the floor got the Lakers within 105-98. He scored 16 straight Lakers points before a Jordan Hill jumper a bit later whittled the deficit to 106-100 with 2:59 to play. Phoenix, though, netted the final nine points of the game.

But his work wasnt done after returning an interception 49 yards for a touchdown. Teammate Morgan Burnett pointed to the stands a€” time for Peppers first Lambeau Leap. One of many for the Packers on Thursday night. Aaron Rodgers threw for three scores, and Eddie Lacy ran for a season-high 105 yards and two touchdowns in the 42-10 rout of the Minnesota Vikings. Jordy Nelson hauled in a 66-yard touchdown catch. Things were going so well in Green Bay that even Peppers found his way to the end zone through the mist. But something was missing. (Burnett)just said, Go, go, go, go! Peppers recounted. This is all new to Peppers after joining the Packers in the off-season as a free agent. It was actually pretty tough to get up there. I was pretty tired after that run, so I barely got up there, Peppers said. It was tough. The Vikings had it much worse. The Packers led 28-0 after the first half played in a light rain. They essentially toyed with Minnesota the rest of the way. Green Bay outplayed us, Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said. They were more physical than we were. They did a much better job all night. Peppers had the highlight-reel play in the second quarter after picking off a pass over the middle from Christian Ponder, who was hit by tackle Luther Robinson as he released the throw. The 34-year-old Peppers veered left across the field and waited for blocks before striding the final 10 yards along the sideline to make it 21-0 with 7:06 left in the second quarter. Peppers became the first player in NFL history with 100 sacks and 10 interceptions. I like the way it went tonight, Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. Yeah, Ill take this. Ponder struggled in getting the start at quarterback with rookie Teddy Bridgewater out with a sprained left ankle. Jamari Lattimore intercepted Ponders pass over the middle on Minnesotas drive after the Peppers touchdown, setting up Rodgers 11-yard scoring pass to Davante Adams to give Green Bay a four-touchdown lead with 4:55 left in the first half. That was Rodgers 200th career touchdown a€” though he let Adams keep the ball in honour of his first career score. Im very proud of Aaron, McCarthy said. It seems like hes in the point of his career now where every week or every other week hes breakiing a record.dddddddddddd The rest of the game was a mere formality. Fans took delight in showering former Green Bay receiver Greg Jennings with boos whenever he touched the ball. Jennings finished with two catches for 31 yards. Rodgers was 12 of 17 for 156 yards a€” and the offence wasnt really at its best. There were several three-and-outs sprinkled among the touchdown drives. But after a short week to get ready for a Thursday night game, the Packers will surely relish this win over a long weekend. On the touchdown to Nelson, Rodgers found the NFLs leading receiver on play-action. Nelson caught the pass stride at the 20 and easily outraced safety Harrison Smith into end zone for the Packers second touchdown. Rodgers also connected with Randall Cobb for an 8-yard touchdown pass set up by three straight long runs by Lacy. Cobb scored his league-leading sixth touchdown of the season. The Packers struggling running game also got back on track, with Lacy running for touchdowns on back-to-back drives in the third quarter. He barrelled over safety Robert Blanton into the end zone on his second score, from 10 yards out. Eddie, you know, hes going to be a guy whos just going to be continuing to lay on people and to be more of a force as the weather continues to turn here, Rodgers said. In contrast, Minnesota rarely advanced past midfield. Its only venture across the 50 in the first half ended with Burnett forcing Matt Asiata to fumble after an 11-yard run, and Casey Hayward recovered the Vikings third consecutive turnover. Under pressure much of the night, Minnesota could rarely get anything going through the air until late with the game well in hand. Ponder was 22 of 44 for 222 yards. Green Bay finished with six sacks, including 1 1/2 apiece for Mike Daniels and former Viking Letroy Guion. The Vikings finally broke the shutout on Ponders 6-yard touchdown run on the first play of the fourth quarter. But they still trailed 42-7. Playing like that, you dont have much to say. It was embarrassing. Thats not the way I expected to come out and play, Ponder said. Minnesota had the most notable injury when receiver Cordarelle Patterson left with a hip injury early in the third quarter after making a 6-yard catch. For Green Bay, defensive lineman Datone Jones left in the second quarter with an ankle injury. ' ' '
