Told ya all a little confidence goes a long way, the wins the past few nights have gotten a little bit of confidence in these guys to close some games out! Nice little streak let’s keep it going! Need that defensive effort for more than a few minutes instead of letting teams hang around…

I hope people keep doubting Booker because he looked good today. I won't say great but like you'd expect and he did regularly for years. Composed and productive.

Good W. Game ball should go to Royce. He's a baller who is the quintessential role player. Does what's needed on both sides of the ball.

I know Point Book isn't ideal but we need to go to that in the 4th more. Tyus doesn't handle the ball in the 4th anyways and he's a liability on defense. We'd be better using Monte since he's more of a shooter as well, if we go with a traditional PG. That Book, Beal, KD, Royce quartet should always be out there when the game is on the line. Oso or Dunn, like Bud used, to round it out.

Were you able to catch it? Missed you here. Saw Yuma trying to hold it down around the half and decided to lend a hand.

I was able to follow the game on my tablet, but it was tough switching back and forth.

It was nice to see fans on the forum bring home the win.

Hope to see you here for game #4 of the win streak. Don't forget that Suns Live offers mobile streaming for $14.99 a month. I'm not sure if they offer any intro deals like Ballys used to. I wish you could buy single games, I'd probably sign up 2-3 games a month if I could pay like $1-2 a game. I think the NBA would make a lot of money if they offered single games for $1 a pop. It's the automatic renewal that keeps me away.

I know I keep saying this, but any positive return for the Suns in a Durant trade would be a huge win.
Golden opportunity to create a new timeline. Unfortunately the schedule is too soft leading up to the deadline to keep up the FO/ownership delusions.

I was stoutly against the trade for Kevin Durant trade, but here we are.

I'd like to see if the team can be fixed before blowing it up.

The Suns have an obvious hole in the middle of their team at the 4/5 position. I'd like to see if it can be fixed first.

IMO, a couple of competent big men could do wonders for this team. Look what Oso has done as a rookie.

This three game win streak has us back in the play in tournament, but as the last team to make it, at number ten. Better stay hot on the road!
