No matter how you slice it, Durant being out even two weeks is not a good thing.

Two weeks is six games. It's hard to see Durant playing in back-to-back games for a while.

Not great, but not the catastrophe some Chicken Littles were forecasting... based on nothing.
There’s literally no reason to start name calling people expecting the worse. It’s not like we were HOPING for bad news.

I’m elated to read that. Still gives him time to come back with three weeks left and integrate into the team. Probably not getting that 2 or 3 seed but if we’re healthy come playoffs and have 10 or so games to get the rotation down, I’m still excited for what can be.

People say Suns don't have depth. I think they do, will fine out.

Nance was traded the Cleveland for KJ. Nance was like a little Durant in trade. He Played in this game.

I am OK as long as he's ready for game one of the playoffs. That's when we REALLY need him.

They do to a degree. But not enough to beat some teams

Next 2 weeks there are games against
Kings ?
Warriors ?
Bucks L
Magic W
Thunder W
Lakers ?

So it's not a cake schedule. We could go 2-4 or 5-1 if everything goes right.

Really hope it is more the latter, because getting the 3rd spot would make things much easier.

Oh, there is every reason to call the punditry Chicken Littles, both locally and nationally...

Pundits all are on social media, which needs controversial takes for click bait. With every little thing that happens, that little thing is the harbinger of doom and the end of mankind as we know it!

Three weeks - oh that's not good.

I think we can kiss home court good bye than
I get what you mean. It’s gonna be a long three weeks. We’ll get a chance to see what this team is made of. Gonna need to bring it every night. The West is such a mess we’ve just gotta grind out wins. C’mon Book lead us!!!

i don't think we need it. Three weeks sucks though. For me it's more about losing the jell time this team needs to be a machine.

But I think if we can stick around 5 or 6 seed, we'll be in fine shape. I have no fear of playing the Kings, who are completely inexperienced, in the first round with a healthy KD.

I don't want anything to do with the Clippers - that's who I am afraid of.
