We played very well against Denver last season and they played yesterday, so I think we are favourites today.
Another great game from Bledsoe.

GO SUNS!

Are we seriously starting plumlee again? UGH.

hopefully the suns can take care of business at home bc on Fri the team is going upstairs to denver. if the nuggets finally remember they are a fast-paced team then it will be a challenge to beat them there with all that postprandial somnolence* going on

For some reason Hornacek doesn't seem to like messing around with starting lineups. The only reason the starters changed so much last year was injuries.

I gotta say, that picture of Mozgov makes him look somewhat cool.

These guys are rolling at the moment, Gallo off the bench has been really solid.

Moz, Faried, Hickson - there's 3 bangers who all crash the boards - we're going to have our hands full there.

I think we have much more firepower than them offensively, so should be enough to get the W at home.

Green v Afflalo should be a solid matchup too. Classic OFF vs DEF..

Interesting. So both Dragic and Bledsoe should get opportunities today to run the offense without a fellow PG on the floor (like last year when each guy took rest).

I hope IT sits out and heals that thing, his game relies on his quickness quite a bit.

Career night for Mozgov.

Maystack · Post #14 » by **Maystack** » Wed Nov 26, 2014 10:18 pm

Dragic goes for 30+ points

If IT doesn't play, I'm predicting this also.

Isaiah made these coments yesterday...

“It's a tough situation,” Thomas said. “But you've just got to be ready for whatever circumstances coach puts you in. You gotta be ready when your name is called, but I'm not going to sugarcoat it. It's tough.

“It's not what I expected,” Thomas continued. “But coach has a tough job. Putting all of us on the floor and trying to mix up the minutes, it's tough for him. So it's not just tough for us as players, we just gotta be ready when our name's called and just know, I mean, coach is trying to do what he thinks is best for the team to put us in a position to win. But the key word is it's a tough situation. For all of us.”

“As long as I'm in the game, I'm happy,” Thomas said. “That's the biggest thing. I know everybody wants to play. I feel like I can help this team in a big way.”

I don't like his approach to the game.
Me first, me second, team third.
