Raps first game on national US TV (NBA on NBC) came against the Suns in 2000. Vince predictably went off.

Suns want a track meet with no defense and the Raptors are always highly susceptible to playing the other teams' game.

No reason we can't put up 125+ on these guys... but I have a feeling Casey will be up off the bench in the 3rd quarter screaming at his guys for more defensive effort.

If that's not the most blatant example of tanking I don't know what is. At some point you need to have some self respect for yourself.

I wouldn't take them lightly. We seem to always chippy games with them and after 2pat got injured last year our mini slide happened. They need to step on their throats and finish them early.

That Friday game starts off a gauntlet of 9 games in 16 days though. So enjoy the days off while you can, it'll be game days and travel days until Christmas.

It will be a b2b for the Suns, do you think they will still want a track meet.

Spreading the schedule out for less taxing on players is good and all but two games in a week?
Hard getting used to this...

Looking forward to seeing what OG can do to lock down Booker. OG has had a few tough matchups recently having to guard Oladipo 2 of the past 4 games.
