I’m a Suns fan so naturally gonna root for Nash to be amazing always but even that aside, I really hope you guys win the chip. Y’all in the East and Denver in the West are the teams I’d like to see in the finals.
Health is gonna be the biggest factor but I think your bench is deep enough to where you can rest KD and Kyrie a lot later on in the season to save em for playoffs.
GL and merry christmas!
Respect. We're rooting for you guys too. Ya'll got a good squad out there in Phoenix.

Don't even think this is true tbh, Kyrie has been above average defensively so far. He's actually very scrappy for a player of his reputation.Hello Brooklyn wrote:
Defense is looking pretty good as well. Dinwiddie/Levert are committing on that side. I don't think we have a single defensive liability in our lineup outside of Kyrie who is looking average at worse currently.

Well, the season is only 72 games this year, so 72-0 lol?
Or maybe you meant 88-0, since that would be mean sweeping all rounds of the playoffs.

Guys guys. That was freaking basketball art!! So damn beautiful to watch. Never seen such artistic duo in the NBA before! KD and Kyrie killed it!! My God what a show from this team. The team as a whole was awesome!
LET's GO!!! Please God bless this team with health. That's all I want at this point.

Hornets and Grizzlies up next.
So, the next two games are back to backs but I’m wondering if we will just let them play and rest them after 3 quarters if we can maintain this level of play.

Nah...Perk is not allowed on the bandwagon. He was feeling himself and his new found spotlight on ESPN and has sold out on multiple occasions.
You can’t call one player “bird brained” and the other “weak” and snitching about your personal conversations to the Twittersphere and media, and now turn around acting like you’ve been a fan all along.

If we can get 4th quarter rest in the Hornets game, maybe. I would prefer that we rest KD and Kyrie versus one of these teams.

Yeah, he's actually been taking on challenges on the defensive end. He was on Tatum a number of times and did well.

Kyrie showed excellent defensive awareness and he doesn't hesitate in switches to defend.
The fact that Nash focused on defense in camp instead of offense is paying dividends. Durant's defense is elite and perfectly compliments Jordan and Allen.

If this team stays healthy, I'm feeling confident vs any team btw. Kyrie and KD are unstoppable when they are feeling it. Such insane offensive force on the court.

If LeBron is to be believed, minutes in a game don't matter. It's the process of warming up and being in a game that takes a toll. 25 minutes vs 33 minutes doesn't make a difference. Full days off are needed for recovery and load management.
I tend to believe him on this.

I'm starting to see the DJ chemistry with Ky & KD. A year of associating lobs with turnovers had me thinking he was the problem.
