My man crush on Dario right now

Just a great 2 game roadie to bounce back from the Nets debacle. Good teams dont let bad losses linger. That’s what we are at that point.

Monty has cleared the entire bench. Suns lead 114-78

I wonder what it is keeping Bridges from being a consistent 16 ppg scorer who then has the occasional mid to high 20s game. It’s not like he’s super young at 25. And he’s got the tools to do now that he has a bit of a pull up, a bit of a post game and a decent three ball.

He just seems passive on offense some nights. He doesn’t have the alpha dog type of personality that Booker does

Big showdown with Portland next!

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns with franchise record 23rd made 3 point shots.

 

[RockinDaMike]

And there it is franchise record! Impressive especially with all our sharpshooting teams we had through out the years

Nice 2 game road trip, good to see the Suns take care of business. Let's see what they got vs Portland.

 

[Mainstreet]

Chris Paul gets the game ball as he passes Oscar Robertson on assist list.

Nice win. Big butt whoopin.

I am of the mind that locking up Mika long term should be the off-season #1 priority before he gets a max deal 18 months from now.

 

[Chaplin]

Well done.

 

[Hoop Head]

He won't get a max deal on the open market but if we can re-up him for 15-18 million a year then we should.

I love the optimism but you also thought we needed to Max Out Oubre. Bridges doesn’t get that deal from anyone but he needs a solid extension.

Great couple of games for the Suns. Also, it looks like Washington is going to beat Portland, which is great news.

This is great news indeed and makes the meeting on Monday that more important.

Suns are in 4th place in the Western Conference at 19-10 while the Trail Blazers are in 5th place at 18-11. So one game between them but I start watching the loss column this time of season.

It's a chance for the Suns to create some distance with a win.

That really was a systematic beat down of epic proportions tonight that I can’t remember a Suns team having since the shocking beginning of the Nash run in 2004.

As this team has started playing REALLY well over the last 12 games what’s so interesting about this to me is HOW they play. The pace of play bothered me earlier in the season, but there is methodical nature of our offense has grown on me and has really made a stamp on what and who this team is. Combo that with a top 6 D and an identity is actually starting to form.

great stretch of play... another big showdown coming up.

Mikal Bridges is going to be a bigger player as he matures. The talent and IQ is crazy.
