Huge game tonight with playoff implications

Jokic and Murray confirmed out.

KCP, Porter, Gordon- GTD

Suns favored by 12 points could be 14.5 when game starts.

It is annoying that Suns haven’t had a chance to play against a single contender with KD since the trade. The best team they played during the stretch was the Mavs who may not even make playoffs and even then needed a game winner in final seconds to top them.

How does the KD Suns handle adversity? How do they handle a terrible start? How do they handle an amazing start and then losing all of the lead away? How do they handle playing against teams with multiple elite ball handlers?

Ton of questions and sucks the first real good team the Suns will play with KD will literally be in the first game of playoffs now.

If Denver is trotting out its B squad again, then I'd rather we rest our guys this game and instead play them against the Lakers tomorrow.

Would prefer our players to get some reps in against a squad that's playing a must win.

Only reason line remains at Suns -13 instead of 15.5 is because T.J Warren is listed out too.

I’ll be surprised if Denver scores 20 points in first quarter. Crazy to have another rim protector like KD you don’t want to take it inside with him within the vicinity.

Really hate that we’re playing our main guys tonight. Would have preferred for everyone to play tomorrow.

Another few good games from Craig could go a long ways entering the playoffs. We need him to score and defend not necessarily run a fast break. Hehe

I guess if they play 25-27 min max won’t hurt us too much for tomorrow. Having them play limited minutes shouldn’t tire them too much the next day. But we’ll see how long they play tonight and if they can hold down a lead.

Holy ****, is anyone on earth more irritating than Wheezy screaming into a microphone?

I voted for Shamet and know who the other two options were voted by.

Starting to wonder when we're going to start defending their shooters? We aren't playing with as much urgency as we should seeing we need this game more than they do.

First quarter under was easiest bet of the century but I didn’t bet. I did place a small wager on cavs & Jazz ML both underdogs.

Can't even watch the game. TNT says check local listings, but no local channels have it. Lol

Not a fan of us starting guys vs the Nuggets bench when we already have 4th seed locked up. I understand why Monty did it though. Grudgingly.

Trying to avoid an injury before season ends is my guess. Even with us playing lackadaisical defense we still manage to limit the Nuggets to just 25 points. Problem is we barely scored 27 against their C- unit team.

Anonymous question, who do you despise the most within Phoenix organization?
