Other dudes getting some burn, but I think it's obvious what the lineups will be even this early.

Where is GA and my boy Yuta? I didn't see them on the injury report

:lol: ppl here saying Nurk is a downgrade to Ayton. We have a point centre, he sets good screens, good in the PnR, he rebounds, makes 3's and he's not a soft arse. Thank you God. Portland #2 is your problem now. :lol:

I get it but DA did the talking in his pressers. Book and KD are telling him to f- off with their play on the court.


It is hilarious. I just explained to my fiancé that Booker is caring too much for a preseason game but he wants to show Ayton that he **** up. Why ask for a trade from a championship caliber team? Booker is one of the most competitive players in the league, and if he wants to compete in the preseason, totally fine.

Assuming just preseason stuff to get some minutes for the fringe dudes.

I'm at a concert tonight, but I had to check in and look at the box. Funny to see ol' DominAyton with... 5 points.

I'm guessing our Big 2 are done for the night? Assume EG might be too?

Is Beal actually injured already or is it just them resting him for whatever reason…

Tightness in the back. Not a real injury but could be a precursor to one so I'm guessing we're taking precautions

We scoring 120 every game this season.

Booker, Durant, Beal, Nurkic, Gordon, Allen so many weapons.

If Vogel can work his magic on defense oh boy.

Azubuike looking like Alex Len out here.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Watanabe looks like a faux star out there with a bunch of g-leaguers and end of benchers
