Game 41: Phoenix Suns (31-9) @ Indiana Pacers (15-27) Friday l 5:00pm l BSAZ1

[Calvin Klein]

a blowout win would be so nice

[Slim Charless]

They have a better starting lineup than a lot of teams - Brogdon, Holiday, Lavert, Sabonis, Turner

Expecting another gritty eastern conference away games.

Their starting lineup should be winning near 50 games a season at least around that number. Very puzzling how badly they've struggled. Obviously they are missing Warren maybe other players have missed a ton of games but no way should Pacers be 15 games under .500 at this point. I guess the coach/management failed this team and guys like Brogdan, Sabonis & McConnell deserve better. Might be seeing a clean house during the trade deadline.

They can't shoot. Oshae Brisset is their best 3pt shooter at 37%.

If this was 1996, they'd be a dominant playoff team for sure. But it's not.

I agree, but still I'm surprised that they're not better. On paper it seems like Sabonis and Turner should complement each other perfectly as Sabonis does work down low and Turner is a strech 5.

Plus, Brogdan and Caris aren't scrubs. Weird that this team sucks. Oh well, hopefully it continues for at least 1 more game

They lost a TON of close games early, and they have been without Warren all season, LeVert for a long time to start the season and Brogdon misses a lot of games. Seems like Lamb might be out too.

If they were always completely healthy they'd be good and have a lot of shooters, but it's pretty unlikely they will be healthy.

Brogdon is out again. Achilles. Levert is a lot better without Malcolm. They’re a poor fit. As is much of their roster.
Would love to see Craig come back as a collateral piece when Indy blow this thing up next month.

Not sure what additional COVID testing means. If he's out due to Health and Safety protocols, we're gonna have a rough time for the next few weeks

We are build to sustain any serious injury and still make the finals. The key is Monty as long as he stays the Suns aren't fading.

Would love to know how the Suns are built to sustain injuries and still make the finals.... outside of Centers, the Suns are not "good" deep. The most reliable bench players are Cam Johnson and JaVale McGee.

Caris "Young Michael Jordan" LeVert will probably have a 30 point game tonight.

Indiana missing both their PGs so starting a guy named Keifer Sykes

[sasquatchBob]

Are Pacers the most bland team in the whole league?

[sasquatchBob]

oh look another great offensive rebounding team. this will be good.

Still a far bigger margin than the Raptors who are 1st in Offensive reb. Need to box out Turner and Sabonis. Also, expect Turner to have 5-6 blocks a game. He leads league with 2.8.

I was being sarcastic! we will get rocked inside for sure.

If you have 6 centers on your team, it should not happen tho.

[Mulhollanddrive]

Ayton and Book's pick n roll has improved quite a lot if you think 2 years back.

[spanishninja]

how is Turner so clumsy?

Nice first quarter. We are missing some easy shots, defensively we are playing with great effort.

Good job on the boards.

[Mulhollanddrive]

Very solid defensively, offense has room for improvement.

[NapoleonII]

Shamet is in his head too much.

I wanted him to do well, but he just chokes.

It's gonna be more apparent in the playoffs.

[Maze]

Shamet is a waste of money.

[sasquatchBob]

I wish Eddie Johnson was my friend. What a guy he is Must be top 3 commentator in the league.

Also, does anyone miss Marv Albert?

[King4Day]

Another flat game against a team we should be playing far better against.
