The Magic are a better team than Washington so I do not expect a win here, especially that our good luck charms are missing yet again.

Relax, I'll update with good luck charms once I get off work.

That's exactly why I expect a win.

With T.J. Warren still ruled out with an illness for Wednesday night’s trip finale at Orlando, the Suns could continue with a lineup that starts guards Eric Bledsoe, Devin Booker and Brandon Knight with front-liners Marquese Chriss and Alex Len.

The literally "death lineup".

My bad didn't mean to offend anyone

What I meant to say is what's wrong with Tj illness or injury

It's knock on TJ as the most prevalent way to get HIV is with needles, usually from hard core drug users, and with meds today and all his money, even if he got that somehow it wouldn't likely get to AIDs quickly, if ever.

On top of that it could be offensive to anyone who did happen to have that disease or even was HIV positive. Calling someone a team cancer has really upset people on many forums to people who either have cancer, lost family members to it or are ill with it, so it's really not good to mention those types of terrible diseases/situations as it can be very upsetting to people.

Wouldn't it usually get released by now what a player's dealing with? At first it could have been seen as a fever so he just needed a day but now this lingering for quite long.

If he played for the Knicks or something instead of the Suns, the NY media would have found a way to figure out what the hell's going on with him.

He contracted an illness watching Brandon Knight play basketball

Still no good luck charms?
Loooong workingday, huh? Or the novel you've been working on?

If you play daily fantasy go ahead and plug Evan Fournier in all of your lineups going up against Brandon knight

Bender should get the start at sf, Knight looked HORRIBLE along side Bledsoe and Book. Give the kid a chance and play everybody the way you have been playing them to preserve the rhythm that Knight, Duds, and others were in.

I would honestly like to see a pick and roll with Bledsoe/Booker and Chriss. Chriss is super athletic and should be able to finish off the pick and roll or pop for a shot. If he's going to play with the starting unit, I wish we would try something like this when we go into our normal half court set. It's like they only know how to set screens with our centers or something.

We love running that pick and roll with Len who isn't even an offensive threat

High pick and roll then ISO. Suns offensive game plan. It's sad.
