As long as they drug test all the players, I am fine.

Add the refs while we are at it.
Will Giannis be allowed to offensive foul his way to the rim all game while the other end we get beat up with no calls? Stay tuned!

If we win, I think there will be more, 'nobody can stop us' discussion.
If we lose, it'll be, '3rd game in 4 nights' talk.

You seem overly worried about rest, or making excuses for a potential loss. Our starters didn't play much in the first game. Conditioning hasn't been a big issue unless coming back from injury. We are solid on b2bs and I don't see with a day in between it should be an issue. The issue will be if we can't shoot 3s like last game.
And the main guy (other than Crowder who often shoots poorly) is Cam, who doesn't play a ton of minutes.

Our starters did play a lot in the first game. Every starter except for Ayton played 35+ mins because of the Bulls comeback with Booker closer to 40 mins iirc.
Back to backs matter. Suns probably don’t lose the game to the Warriors earlier in the season if it’s not a back to back. And it’s not just me, even Warriors HC Steve Kerr attributed their win because the Suns were on tired legs.
And equally as important as the back to backs is the traveling. Even with their first class travel accommodations, traveling to Chicago then to Philadelphia then back to Arizona all in a span of 4 days can be tiring.
Not making excuses for a potential loss because I don’t think a loss here means anything in the grand scheme of things. If anything whichever team wins the reg season series (if a sweep happens), may underestimate the other in a potential playoffs series.
I just think if their gonna have prime time matchups between two elite teams then they should schedule it in ways that’s fair to both clubs. Instead of it being a back to back (like the Warriors game) or 3rd game in 4 nights (this game).
