Atlanta and Memphis are getting thumped tonight (although it's still the 1st quarter of the Utah-Memphis game).

Good stat line. Last 3-4mins been a struggle though now Rockets pick up their D. He's been left dribbling for most of the shot clock not finding anyone open

They've gotten way to conservative running down the clock down the stretch and haven't been able to get good shots because of it.

I am very happy that Triano called the play for Josh
This is what these games should be for

Great effort tonight, maybe their best game of the year considering how many players were out.

A good game from Jackson and a loss. Everything we could have hoped for.

We are going to have to seriously turn over the roster to help get the stink of the tank off of us.

Keep Booker, TJ, JJ and one of Chriss or Bender. Trade Knight if you can but I doubt we will be able to get anyone to bite.

I hope that Ulis and Williams land on the same team together. I feel like they could really lead a G-League team to a title or two. :)

Nobody's going to want to trade for Knight, Dudley or Chandler unless you attach a first-round pick with them. Knight might take both the Minnesota and Miami picks (or more).

The only veteran who might have some market value is Daniels, but he won't have much.

The Suns set a team record with their 14th consecutive loss tonight, they had 13-games losing streaks in both 1996-97 and 2016-17.

They also had the worst month in franchise history, going 0-14.

Heck of a short handed effort tonight. They deserved to win. Tough game winner from Green although it shouldn't have counted due to the obvious shove down of Jackson by Harden.

Had to miss this game but what a game by Jackson and a perfect loss. How does Peters play 27 minutes and not score a single point ???
