Hopefully this is a repeat from yesterday and we can rest the starters early again.

We are good enough to win the game without them.

I expect a big game from Payne and Saric.

I guess, but no Booker, Paul, Ayton, Cam Johnson and limited minutes for Bridges. I dunno. I think they just don't care that much about the 1 seed or think it's not worth the risk considering Utah will most probably win their game.

Yeah, I don't really get it either, but I guess they just assume Utah will win

Schedule for last two games was TBD at some point. They should have put Suns and Jazz games at the same time.

Uh they are playing DeRozan. Why the hell are Booker and CP3 sitting? Aren't we tired of screwing ourselves?

Truly. If Phoenix loses tonight, the Jazz game is going to be worthless, may as well just skip it. Isn't this what the NBA was trying to avoid? meaningless games at the end of the year?

Jalen better than Saric. Not sure what happened to the later, can't make an open layup now.

Don't want to get too excited, but I really think Stix is going to give us some good minutes next year. He looks so mobile, and he's been really active on the glass.
