Atlanta is good this season, but they are on a skid right now. Got blown out in Denver, and then got blown in LA back to back, and then the other night barely beat the tanking Jazz by a miracle shot by Trea Young.

We'll show them what a real skid looks like.
SHAZAM!

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

Johnson not being available to destroy them is certainly a nice break.

Really need a 25+ point performance from Beal here to show the Hawks brass what they are missing out on. He's a perfect complimentary player to Trae Young. Hawks have lost 3 of their last 4 games, Trae Young hit a crazy half court buzzer beater to defeat the Jazz in Utah.

Go Suns!

Not sure if it’s the biggest game in franchise history, but definitely bigger than final 4 Notre Dame vs Penn ST game tonight.

Durant with the lazy turnover. I guess he's broken the ice tonight.
