Ingram and Rondo will be out so the Suns need to take advantage of this opportunity.



Booker vs Lakers last year.


Rookie dual between Jackson & Kuzma.


Good luck charm...

Because Walton called out the refs after the last game, I imagine they will be extra gracious to the Lakers in this one.

It is a given when the Suns play, no matter who the opponent is. Hope the guys stay cool and play well. Hope Ayton and co. make a block party on LeClown (a man can dream, right :D )

I have a bad feeling about this game.Teams always tend to find their rhythm against the Suns.

I get the feeling this will be a Lakers slump busting party

Lakers problem hasn't been the offense, which would most likely click against our horrid defense. They are ranked 10th in ORTG.

It's their defense at 25th DRTG that's killing them. (We are 20th).

We can win this.

Or Booker drops 40, Ayton drops 20/15 and Suns win by double digits.

This should be a high scoring game for both teams as the Lakers without Rondo & Ingram have nobody that can actually defend. LeBron has stopped playing defense and both the Rockers and Spurs actually went after him.

I’m guessing he’s saving his energy on that end to help get him through the season.

Or on us, 20-1 vs Suns could indicate it :lol:

Suns win, Lebron realizes how terrible the Lakers are and hints at a trade for him or others to get help!!! I smell drama!!

LeBron is gonna go off for 50 tonight. Not a guarantee they win but he's definitely coming out like a man on fire trying to avoid 0-4.

the sad thing is both of those things can happen and we still lose this game.

I have a bad feeling about this game. Lebron will be very focused to try and get their first win. That being said, I hope we bury them. Beat LA!

LeBron is capable of carrying the Lakers to a win all by himself. With the suspensions, he might go ahead and do that rather than trying to get everyone involved. I think the suspensions are a disadvantage for us. I would rather have the ball going through Rondo and Ingram's hands some rather than in LeBron's the whole time.

I wonder what the ratio of Lakers fans will be. There were always a lot of Lakers fans and I'm sure there are more with LeBron. But we have more now with Ayton as well.

Plus more Hart and Kuzma who are there two best players as of late outside LeBron.

Ayton has pulled some UofA fans into the fold I think. I hope.
