Lakers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 4-5-2022

[Superbone]

Anthony Davis and Lebron are questionable.

Of course they are.

 

[Folster]

I've got their satellite dish. I've had it for like 20 years. Of course I keep it to get the Suns games.

It's a bit irritating I can't get HBO Max without streaming it. I would think streams should be available by satellite. I really don't want to buy new TVs or adapters until I have too.

You can buy a 4K Roku stick or Fire TV stick for about $40 if you don't already have a TV with a relevant smart operating system.

Someone told me the last telecast said tonight there is a bobble head giveaway but I can’t find it mentioned anywhere. Any of you recall seeing it mentioned?

 

[Folster]

James is out tonight.

my guess is that Lebron isn't playing because, with the Lakers being such a long shot to even make the playoffs, it would be further embarrassment for them to lose this must-win game with him on the floor!

He doesn't want to risk losing the scoring title. He's barely ahead of Embiid - he would have to score more than 26 points tonight to stay ahead of Embiid, and 20 to stay ahead of Giannis. Real possibility that he wouldn't do that.

At the moment I'm getting all the channels I need. My televisions are smart but they will need a Roku type device.

 

[Mainstreet]

They are? Sure doesn't look like it. I guess I have a different definition of "competing".

The Suns haven't competed for the last two games so if you agree, we have the same definition.

He needs to play in at least 2 more games this season to hit the 58 game minimum for eligibility: https://www.nba.com/stats/help/statminimums/

He'll play against the Thunder (and score 40+)
And either Warriors or Nuggets.

Probably Nuggets because they will be out of it by then, and he will have a better idea of what he needs to score.

That can't be right. It was only a week or so ago on this board that I said the Suns were not among the preseason betting favorites for the title, and was soundly corrected by those with perfect memories.

Bring it on AD

 

[Chaplin]

Do a switch and have Booker on him. Injury.

 

[Proximo]

Please break out of this funk and beat the lakers.

don’t think I could take a loss to their sorry butts.

 

[Mainstreet]

Watching video of Iffe on pregame.

A reporter covering him says it is a turning point for Danish basketball.

 

[Chaplin]

Here we go. Is this the most available number of players we’ve had all season?

 

[Mainstreet]

It's nearing game time.
