this is the test - did we just beat on some scrubs or are we actually turning a corner - unless the cavs are coasting

 

[Superbone]

I don't expect to win this game but I do expect the Suns to play with the same intensity and values that they have for the last two games. If they do that, I'll be happy win or lose.

it"s about to get weird - that's my guess - we have a tough road ahead but playoff teams might be resting players when we face them

 

[Yuma]

I can see Dallas passing us for the ten spot again.

 

[Mainstreet]

Bradley Beal and Mason Plumlee remain OUT.

Grayson Allen is QUESTIONABLE.

even if the cavs are resting players that team as a whole is built different - won't be easy peasy last two gamesies

 

[Mainstreet]

No one listed on the Cavaliers injury report.

As noted, Beal and Plumlee are OUT. Allen will likely be a game time decision.

 

[CardNots]

Mixed feelings.

oh make no mistake I believe a beat down will occur but what if…

I am expecting a close game, and the Suns choking in the end.

 

[BirdGangThing]

difference between the opponents we're facing tonight vs last game is night and day - we haven't seen our new energetic line ups play any top shelf - don't know what to expect

Posted this elsewhere, but it may help get through the game tonight:

Nick Richards is also OUT.

This is why the Suns needed a third center. With Richards and Plumlee out, it looks like Oso will have to carry the load.

Nick Richards is also OUT.

Yes, Bol Bol should play tonight.

 

[Mainstreet]

Cody Martin would be a good player to keep next season, but the 2nd tax apron will be a factor.

It wouldn't have been a bad idea for the Suns to have a 4/5 on a two-way contract.

The bigs on our G League team would be no help.

The bigs on our G League team would be no help.

So is that a reason for James Jones to ignore the problem?

 

[Mainstreet]

Tip-off.
