That's a foul. 3 shots for Danilo Gallinari.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

And you just got T'd up for swearing at the refs. Another FT for Gallinari.

I wonder if the Clippers go with Boban over Gortat like the past 2 games?

We need the starters to start the game off strong if we're going to get a win tonight. This should be a winnable game, but only if we play a full 48 minutes.

At first I was pissed we weren't practicing, but games are the best practice and that's all the season is at this point. Practice. :wink:

Read that the last time we practiced was before the Wiz game. We were on a nice run leading up to that game, too.

Yeah, it makes you shake your head. Two weeks before another practice is unacceptable if you're actually trying to win.

My hopes for tonight:
- the Suns come out quickly and lead after the first quarter
- Gortat gets dominated to the point they bring in Boban early
- We see growth in getting the ball to Ayton
- Ayton tears the rim down on dunks as if he's Oubre. Nobody comments about his "soft touch for a big man".
- Win or stay close

Starters need to try on defense in for any of this to happen.

Long road trip, holiday season, so it's kinda understandable. I think they practiced in the last couple of days. Let's just hope for some new found energy in this game and going forward.

if we get the same kind of lead in the 4th we had last time against the clips, I don't see us losing it again.
