Good luck charm!!!


High maintenance

I think if we can figure out how to score again while continuing to play good defense, we have a chance. Celtics played really good D against us, but Nets will let us score.

I honestly don't think the Celtics played good D at all. The Suns were just ho-humming it last night and couldn't hit the side of a barn. Loss is 100% on the Suns.

I think they definitely bothered us, especially Walker on Booker.

I'm old school still call them NJ by mistake. I guess old habits die hard.

I'm actually pumped to see this. Hopefully our guys are rested enough by now. If we shoot OK this will be a battle.

Mike James with a vengeance

Bleh KD is likely playing. Mikal got his work cut out.

No Saric, Crowder, Langston or Nader, .. depth going to be a bit more tested next two games if none are back till back home

Where did you see no Saric and Crowder? I haven't seen this, but if that's the case and Craig is our only "big" off the bench it could get "intresting".

We're not losing to the Nets again, Phoenix should be prepared with or without Saric and Crowder. It took a huge comeback from the nets to win not going to happen today. I expect a huge game from Booker somewhere along the line of 37/4/4 on 55% shooting.

Espn also lists KD as out. I hope that's not the case. Quite frankly I had enough of watching teams play on "half legs" - while I do enjoy the winning, these games are not as good (high level, entertaining, whatever u wanna call it) as they should be, and I mean it in general too, not just specifically the Suns. For example last night I started watching Bucks-76ers, but I turned it off before half-time, as Sixers without Embiid and Simmons were just a mess, and the game was not a composed, high-level, playoff like basketball battle, but a rec league chuckfest (as long as I watched). Not much joy in these for me nowadays.

Game starts in a little over 8 hours I cant fall asleep. Have the Suns especially Booker on my mind.

Unfortunately neither team has their breast best team available.

Durant is gonna play, book it.

Durant confirmed to play.

Good. This should be an excellent test for the Suns.

You'd rather face depleted teams all season? I'd really like to see us take on some elite teams at full strength to see how we really stack up.

Harden out anyway.
