Both LA teams with tough games tonight. Anteto and Lillard are questionable, that’s a shame. Doncic out.

Good night to start closing the gap with 5th and 6th...but we need to win (of course) and it will not be easy.


The Spurs have a net rating of -6.5 without Wemby (-0.7 with him), that's Brooklyn Nets level bad.

And we've lost to the Nets this season....


Nets are a good team when motivated.

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard, and I don't think I've seen any of our talent work hard besides Dunn and Oso.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Yeah, pretty much rookies doing the hard work to show they belong in the league. While our older vet players are set for life ( money wise) and can’t lead by example. I wish KD or Booked had a Butler, Draymond, Lebron, MJ, CP3, etc mindset to be a leader on & off the court.

Something seemed off with him the past couple of weeks. They said he was sick an upper respiratory infection but he was still putting up great numbers. Blood clots are not something to mess around with I know Ingram had the same thing and came back. I just hope this is not career ending for him. They likely have him on blood thinners already. Damn! get well Wemby you are the future face of this league.

DVT freaks me out. The idea that suddenly your veins/artery/whatever it is gets blocked while you're just going about your day is pretty scary


Yeah, sounds like Bosh.

This season is lost. Let's just be honest with ourselves here.

10 down in the 1st quarter. Book and Beal doing his thing missing and missing shots.

Just play through KD and play smallball because they don't play with any C.

So much passing to the point of overdoing it, wasting a bunch of clock just to miss. Thankfully Bol was there to use his length to bail is out and save the possession.

Getting blown out by a team of scrubs. Fox is the only great player. Rest are average as all hell. This team is a joke No matter who it is, we will always be out efforted.

We could play a high school JV team and they would play harder.

Where is Ryan Dunn? I tuned in for the ifrst time in awhile to see Bol Bol and if we had anything there, and to see if we'd hve some energy t make the playoffs.

What a team of absolute babies. The KD trade is one of the worst decisions in franchise history.

Is there a reason our best defensive player is benched?

Apparently the Suns are content giving up 39 point after a little over a quarter to a Wemby-less Spurs team.
