PHOENIX -- "Memphis point guard Mike Conley in back in form and so are the Grizzlies, who have won five of their last six and already have won twice in Utah this season.

The Suns, meanwhile, are looking to regain that first-game feeling, having lost seven in a row since beating Dallas 121-100 in the season opener. Memphis won by 21 points when the teams met Oct. 27.

Devin Booker had 18 points in a 107-98 home loss to Toronto on Friday, his first game back after missing three with a strained left hamstring. The Suns led at half for only the second this season but were undone by a 14-4 Raptors' spurt to open the fourth quarter.

Ayton, 7-foot-1, has 88 rebounds through his first eight career games, most by any NBA player in the span since Dwight Howard in 2004"

I'm not worried about that, what it really means is that its more minutes for JJ :banghead:

The Suns better put on a show because I'm missing the Packers vs Patriots game for this

This should be a win for PHX tbh. With Booker back and Ayton schooling Gasol, my money is on PHX. C'mon Suns!

Not sure if serious ...

With Warren out and Booker rusty yet I can not see us winning any game ...but hopefully you are right, of course.

I didn't know Warren was out. Obviously that complicates things but don't know, something tells me that PHX should play a lot better than previous time. Also Ayton getting some confidence back is a huge plus.

It is unrealistic to expect an actual NBA team to lose to a team with Ryan Anderson in their starting lineup.

The restricted minutes for a game or two seemed to help JJ, so maybe it continues, as he played well in the last one. And hopefully Anderson comes in with something to prove.

Most of all, hopefully Bridges gets more minutes.

The good thing about having so many wings is that inevitably, one of Booker or Warren are injured about half the time. Hopefully this improves.

A lot of teams lost to the Rockets last year with him in their starting lineup for more than half the season....Ariza too. They are not looking so hot these days either.

This could be a tough one. Grizzlies have beaten Utah twice, once at home and once on the road. Conley will work our PG likely. I wonder if Ayton will guard Jaren much.

Whats the name of the P.A announcer that was there in the Nash/Amare era? The one they have now has been lame for years

I think they said twice on the road though. Not sure if I was wrong or they were.
