Trap game? I guess it's this years theme

I hope we blow them out and get our rookie some solid playing time for once. 10+ mins - it's not like Dario or Shank made themselves "un-sittable" lately.

This game probably scares me more than either of the Clips/Jazz games did... OKC looks like they’ve got a G-League-level lineup, but the Suns effort against crap teams combined with OKC just getting blown out so bad could easily turn into an L if they don’t concentrate

Just stop easy inside baskets and we'll win this with a leg in the air while never getting out of first gear.

Same. We should crush though. I consider sitting CP3 actually, but I know he'd probably veto that. Hopefully we smash early so Jalen can get some time-hopefully the entire 4th to play.

Anyone know if they're gonna have Summer League again? He could use that time in real situations for sure.

Trap game? You think we are looking past them to the juicy matchup next with Cleveland?

OKC is actively trying to lose....the bottom 6 records are all close and getting to at least bottom 5 but preferably bottom 4 will be the goal for teams at the bottom of the standings. The only team trying might be Minnesota.

Plus we already lost to them. I think we are pretty locked in to try and get the top seed.

I think every game we play after Cleveland will be tough. Most all those teams are really jockeying for seeding.

When your team is one of best in the league you tend to look more forward to competing against top 10 teams in the league. Not too excited about facing OKC but at the end of the day basketball is still basketball and I prefer when Suns play and win on the road makes it more difficult.

I'm not trying to be funny when I say, I don't recognize any of their starters.

EDIT: Unless Dort is starting. I do know him

Total trap game.

- Suns already reached the #1 spot so they can say they did that late in the season. Probably less motivation to stay up there
- Coming off the back of a huge and decisive win against the #1 team in the league and put us at #1
- Playing on the road
- OKC got murdered in their last game

Drysdale.

Does anybody know when Crowder is expected to return?

OKC has Tortu now so look out

Not a great start.. OKC making everything.

Drysdale

Not sure why everyone is raving over PokusevskI the guy is shooting a horrendous 32% fg & 26% 3s. Yuck! Apparently he shows a few glimpses of potential for a 19 year old. We'll see if he proves within 2-3 years.

Ugh, Drysdale is the only bad part of Suns basketball this year.

Booker offensive foul that never gets called for anyone else.

Weak start.
Some shot selections, bad turnovers, and OKC making everything.
