Need to win 22 of the last 49 games to get to 30 wins. That would be impressive given how we started.

This was a schedule loss even before they went 3ots yesterday. Curious if the suns rest Booker.

Jackson will have to be great today. Time for anderson to at least earn a dollar. Melton n Holmes will have to play well. It think Booker, Warren, Ayton (he might have a bit in the tank, normalish minutes n young as hell w low game miles on him) n crawford will be shot. Crawford may be in a cot at courtside. It'll have to be an oddly great performance to win. Plus the emotional loss to Washington. All signs lead to a blowout, unless jersey comes out flat.

I'd be real bummed if they rested Booker. Unless hurt he should play. The highest paid player on the team shouldn't be coddled at 21. Not if they expect to create a winning culture.

Depends on the hamstring. That's a tricky injury and fatigue can lead to another reinjuring. I'd rather he miss one game vs a month.

Hopefully our new good luck charm can start us another winning streak. Our last one did very well, despite people disappointed being last night....had you known before the streak that we'd win 4 in a row, a couple on the road, and then a triple OT loss on the road, I think no one would have believed it.

Our new charm is Nicole Borda from Colombia.

Some bad fouls by Melton and Ayton.

Strange foul on Melton. We should sub out Melton and TJ...two fouls each.

It's time to star running the offense through Ayton more.It beats the Booker/Crawford ISO's.I just want to see one game where we force

Ayton to play like Hakeem Olajuwon on offense....Or at least give him the opportunity to give it a shot
