Time for TY and IT to shine as many wanted.

I have noticed on a lot of occasions now what a QUESTIONABLE status means regarding player's availability. Is it a Suns player ? Then NO. Opposing team player ? YES.

Yeah, that's true lol.

I can’t imagine Nurkic playing tonight because he had an ankle sprain just a day ago. It was an small one but someone with his size usually needs a few days to recover from it.

I expect Beal to play because it's just a finger and it's not broken.

Thad Young and Azubuike better get some run this game.

It kills me to know Eubanks is probably going to start.

Our coach adores Ewwbanks similar to how Monty favored Shamet. The love affair towards garbage players is real.

It's unfortunate Nurk will miss the Nuggets game when we need him the most, but it's what it is.

Fortunately I have the options to watch it live(if I decide to get up early) or on replay. If on replay it depends on the result.

I feel that we win this match, even without Nurkic. It just plain simple , we must shoot very well from three points shoots. We have a lot of shooters like Grayson , Beal , D Book and KD. From the bench too. If Nurkic wouldn’t be available I will moving KD to center position and Saben to our starting five.

We have zero % chance winning this game we already been the Nuggets last game on the road. No way it happens again I might put good money on nuggets +8.5. I no longer trust Phoenix to win important games they can’t even beat the lowly spurs.

ESPN's broke-ass BPI states we have a 42% to win. this is how you know that thing is useless.

We did win the last time in Denver, and that was coming off a 2 game losing streak. I'm sure people thought we had no chance then either. They were a lot healthier too.

Murray and Gordon are out (well, some places list them as questionable). The rest of their starters it lists GTD. Nnaji out too.

I think what I saw was referring to yesterday. Porter is sick, but probable. Jokic has lower back pain and hip inflammation, but is probable.
