After 36 games this will be our first national televised games not counting NBATV.

Wiggins, Mohammad, Dieng, and Lavine. Man, this is probably the team with players that's showed the most promise and potential since the Warriors with Curry, Thompson and Igoudala or Durant, Westbrook, Harden, Ibaka.

Yep. Put Mudiay in there and that would be a scary team in a couple years. Man, are they lucked out in that Love trade.

I would trade Green, Randolph and Mitchell right now for Thad Young.

Dieng could have 15 rebounds in this one, and we can't let Shabazz get in a groove cos he's had some big scoring games lately.

Mo Williams always seems to score a lot versus the Suns, although maybe I'm imagining that....

Always seemed to be Nash he was abusing, but he dropped 44pts on us once with Nash out!!

Some random stats:

Kieff has dropped 21pts + in 3 of his last 4.

Bledsoe has 4 straight 8+ assist games and 4 of his last 6 he's scored 20pts.

Dragic has 4 straight 6+ rebounds + 3+ assist games while shooting 50%+ in 5 of his last 6.

Thomas has shot 60%+ in three straight, with 12+ points and 2+ threes in each.

Just win.

Alex Len is the only guy who can win MVP and 6th man of the year it seems? :P

Please don't lose our first game on national TV to a team that has only won 5 games. Kill em and send the rest of the league a message that we found our groove and are ready to roll.

Hard to believe we're almost halfway through the regular season.

Wiggins has been scoring well lately. Last 4 games 20+ pts, I think. Guess we'll put Goran on him and PJ on Shabazz.
