I beg you dont lose twice to this team like Nets lost to the Wizards. Let's come out focused and prepared to play this one and not let out a stinker again. Very nervous though as we've played down to our competition to lower bottom of league teams. A 20+ victory would make other nights lose a bit forgettable. Go Suns!!!

Booker has not been the same since the bubble. It could be in part due to our good luck charms. If he has a 40 pt game, credit the one who hosted the hotel ring of honor ceremony.

Was it easier for her cause she's lost all the feeling in her lips? Good god...

I hear ya. I prefer the girl next door type to the one with fake everything. Years ago it seemed like chicks who showed up at NBA hotel rooms wanted to get knocked up by an NBA player. (dunno. Do they still?) Now they bang the NBA players to get followers and likes.

Darn, that's a limited bench. Hopefully Smith plays a lot of minutes next to Frank.
So that leaves our bench if Nader is out as Moore/Galloway/Carter/Smith/Frank ?
Hopefully no Jones. Will need a lot of minutes from Cam and Bridges....always keep at least one in to play with bench because cannot have no wing defender.
Too bad they are both kind of playing like crap.

Is this good luck charm too good looking to be a girl next door type?

I wish Saric would grow a pair and play, he's costing us a 1st or 2nd seed in the standings.

Suns haven’t beat the Pistons since Nov 9th, 2016.
I think Blake Griffin will have a big game. Starting him daily fantasy plays, hoping for 30/10 from him at least with a loss for his team.

It’s one thing after another with him. Already missed 15+ games.
That contract extension isn’t looking too good.

I don't like the feel of this one at all...no wing depth for this game... Grant and Griffin will probably go buck wild on us. Pistons know they can beat us if they just play hard and let us chuck. I think it's an L unfortunately.

We kill them at the guard spots and have a ton of depth. As long as Paul and Booker play well, and the guards off the bench, we should be ok.
I do hope Jalen can play some PF though, tonight but moreso in general, because these teams with more legit PFs make it tough for us to guard them. Crowder is good at it...Saric ok but is slotted more as a bench big.
One thing about Griffin is that he will have to guard Cam which will give us the advantage on that side, if Cam stops shooting airballs and hitting only the backboard from 3.

Booker please don't be a hero today and try play within the flow of the offense more, and CP3 stop always deferring to him whenever you are on the floor together, you are one of the best play makers and mid range shooters of all time.

I suppose after this game, wont have to be reminded of the offseasonal ‘other road’ of drafting Haliburton and signing Wood.
We are likely to get manhandled. Not exactly a will imposing front line....even when at full health.

Ever the optimist... Don't jinx my reverse jinx
I would like to see some Smith in this game too. I didn't expect him to get a ton of minutes this season, but he's getting DNPs when the only actual bigs we have healthy are Ayton and Kaminsky... I wonder if that indicates something about him (not ready for primetime yet, not working hard enough in practice, etc.) or Monty (who knows what's going on in his mind this season) or both?

We have no frontcourt aside from Ayton. Saric has missed too much time already.
If we don't shoot 40% from three, this is another bad loss.
