I just hope we at least win the first game of the B2B's.

This December stretch should show where we really stand since we've played quite a few sub par teams lately.

I personally, would rather we win the second one of the orlando/denver one but that's just me. I don't wanna pay to see the Suns lose :lol:

That's what I'm betting on. You can't blame an uber team for being tired the 2nd night, unless it's a total blowout the night before -- which likely won't happen.
The Phoenix Suns - 54-28. Projected Record: 54-28 3rd Seed

What do you have us losing against every team that's above .500?

pretty cool that Denver's loss to the Twolves puts us as the only team remaining unbeaten at home

The 2nd game will always be harder than the 1st so I'd rather we go all out and win the 1st game and just hope we get lucky in the 2nd. Considering our schedule, I too hope we win the 2nd of B2B since they are against elite teams but if I had to a choice I'd rather go 4-4 in the B2B than 2-6 by trying to conserve our energy for the 2nd night. Winnings the games we should be winning is important in the regular season. The key winning b2b is production off the bench. If they can keep out starters/vets fresh then we have a good chance against the 2nd team.

I think the best we go is 2-2 on the 2nd of B2B's.

I think we can beat the Cavs but it will be very tough. I think we lose to both Lakers and Nuggets. Game against the Warriors should be OK.

Rough, rough schedule. If we can go 11-5 I'll be happy. I still don't know how our previous teams started 31-4, won 15 and then 17 games in a row, etc.

how many of these are on TNT? hahha cuz i feel like thats an important aspect to the wins/losses

11-5 would be BEAUTIFUL but i think i think 9-7 is realistic i am hoping that or anything better would be awesome

They'll probably beat CLE tomorrow night

Argh that was difficult to watch, but only at the start of the 4th did I think well this game's over

yeah they could have made a run if they kept the starters in but it wouldnt have been worth it to gamble on a loss/win esp when we play cavs tomorrow. shocking loss, but hopefully we can turn it around and not go 14-5 tomorrow. that would truly be sad.

[quote="arizonaplaya85"]@NYK - W( should be an easy win, but you never know)

---Oh ho ho - no, we sure didn't


@CLE - L ( Lebron, Mo and Shaq too much to overcome)

---I can see us winning. The no-sense of it would make perfect sense for us

SAC - W ( We should win this one)

--- yup. Looking forward to seeing Evans play

@LAL - L( another game on the road against the Lakers, spelled C-H-A-O-S)

I would give up a lot just to see us beat these .... persons

@DAL - L( don't underestimate this team, they been playing lights off)

--- I like Dallas this year, a lot. This will be a tough one. L

ORL - W ( playing at home, suns want revenge against this team)

--- They really look even better than last year. We can beat them though, if we get some defense and our bigs step up

@DEN - W( things will get ugly, denver loves getting into players skin and pushing us around. but at the end I see suns outscoring them)

--- Yes, we can take these guys.

SAN - L( God I hate them soo frickin much. Spurs could be 10-25 and still end up beating phx. just a bad match up for us every year)

-- I see a W

@POR - L( a very good talented team thats out to prove something and their fans are crazy)

--- I think we take them - they got troubles right now

WAS - W* team has been struggling and Suns are great at home, so expect a suns win)

---W

CLE - W( we're playing at home, so this time around I expect Suns to come out with energy and slow them down)

-- We'll likely get one and not the other.

OKC - W( this team is much improved but still inexperienced, will be a close game but suns will pull it out)

-- we should win this, but they're getting better every game. Great young squad

LAC - W( Blake Griffin should be back but I still see a Suns win)

-- this could be tough. W

@GSW - W( golden state usually gives us trouble, but most of their players are injured so it can go either way, but ill pick the Suns)

--- W. Please god.

LAL - W( Suns are not losing to the Lakers again. "I repeat we aren't losing to the lakers again)
BOS - L( They want revenge for the first time we beat them at their house)

--- I'm thinking we lose both
