Oh the irony that Jokic misses this game because Plumlee got into a fight ...... :roll:

BTW, it's time to pull Craig out of the starting lineup !!

Last matchup Jokic had 23 pts with 10 boards and 4 assists.
Matchup before that he had 23 pts with 8 boards & 9 assists.
Before that 35 pts with 11 boards and 11 assists.

He's been good against them but I'm looking forward to seeing how our guys do without Jokic. They still ought to win, but will they?

Booker will be a real challenge for our guards. We should win the rest of the matchups.

Well Ayton ate us up in the paint last game, I’m sure he’s going to go after Plumlee

Even without Jokic our starting lineup is way better than Suns, considering 2 out of TOP3 Phoenix players are out (Ayton and Warren). When they have multiple injuries, after trading Ariza and T.Chandler, Suns are forced to play with couple G-League level players.

Nice to see Murray playing finally good first half in some January game.

Huge win even without Jokic. Still can't believe we lost to this squad last time around.

Lack of effort (they were right in the middle of a long stretch of games one after another) plus good effort by their player.
One of the few aspect to improve in rs games are those kind of games. Last year pop coached an awful roster to the PO by just winning every games against under .500 teams.

Murray had a great 1st quarter and then disappeared with not too many minutes. Let's hope the ankle isn't terrible.

Really object to Barton playing point again. Sure, Morris was our only PG with Murray hurt but I'd rather see Beasley at PG (and maybe Harris). They have better handles.

IMPRESSIVE team win!
