Injuries

Suns

NOTE: the Suns list Bledsoe as day-to-day, but don't list him in the projected starting 5. Rotoinfo says he is expected to play, however.

Kings
Landry (out)
NOTE: Cousins is expected to play after returning to action last night from his briefly dislocated shoulder.

The loss from last night still stings. They need to blow the Kings out tonight, straight out of the gate.

After Archie's game last night, I think it would be a HUGE confidence boost to start him tonight... he destroyed McLemore last night (McLemore was only really good for the first quarter - until Archie came in). With Bledsoe on the sidelines, for at least the start tonight, I think it would make a huge difference in bolstering Goodwin's confidence. Obviously, it wouldn't be permanent, as Bledsoe is just injured, so it wouldn't be a blow to his confidence when Bledsoe/Dragic are back as the starting backcourt.

I'd also like to see Frye get pulled early if his shot isn't falling and he's playing matador defense. He made some shots last night, but his defense was beyond bad (and I used to be one of the people that credited his improvement on that end of the floor, but he's just been awful this year).

Also, wondering if that bandage on Dragic's eye is messing with his vision, since he was pretty sloppy with the ball last night. Can't wait for the Suns backcourt to stop taking turns on the injured list. They really need time to build chemistry with each other. They started out the first couple games in a whirlwind, but the injuries have really sputtered things out.

Lets end this heartbreaking streak!

Enough of these narrow defeats. Time to get things going.

Bledsoe is out.

Run these guys out of the building.

Goran looking strong early.

Dragic just scoring all the points, reminds me of when I play mycareer mode in nba 2k13

what 11 straight points from Dragic. He scored more points in those 4 minutes than last night. love it so far, go suns

Glad to see the Dragon going to work. Just hope he has enough gas in the tank at the end of the game.

Dragic on pace to score 88+ points this game. LOL.

Get 40 Goran!

I didn't realize Plumlee was such a bad FT shooter. Before those 2 misses he was like... 40% i think.

Cousins travels on pretty much every post up... It's ridiculous.

Instead of just holding your hand up like its always going in Tucker, why don't you follow your damn shot and try to get a rebound after the miss.

god cousins is a man among children tonight

I wonder if Markieff and Marcus switched jerseys the past few games to mess up the other team. Like... one of them is doing all the work, the other one has just been a scrub...

Len looked good in those garbage minutes

Garbage minutes? I don't think you know what those are.
