Brooklyn and Minnesota both won tonight as well, so this doesn't do to much damage.

3 wins in 31 games.

Watson (1-9) now off the scheid.

Anyone know if Phoenix, Brooklyn and Minnesota have all won on the same day this year before tonight?

How about Tucker and Len tonight?! Tucker flirting with the triple double (career high assists) and Len with 22 and 16! What a win, Whataburger!

Really Grizz? Can't lose them all I guess. Funny how over the past few years the games we really needed to beat tbe Grizz we couldn't win. Now when we need to lose to them...

That Grizz team is terrible. Conley looks like he's lost a step or two.

I thought we all agreed to keep things close nd lose at the end? Congrats to Earl on his 1st W...

In the Grizz defense, Marc Gasol is by far there best player...There just a different team without him.
Although, you won't see anyone from the suns apologizing with all our injury problems

I was surprised at how bad they looked. They were 4-1 without Gasol.

And honestly, Marc Gasol is a role player.

The Grizz know this group is finished. That's why they did the Jeff Green deal, that's why they dumped Courtney Lee. Even going into the season, their chances of being a contender were low. Randolph isn't what he once was either.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

Yeah, I think Memphis may be in a sadder state as a franchise than we are. I'd much rather have our young players and assets than their fading team that will now require years of dumping players and acquiring assets.

I dislike Amin but he was on Lowe's podcast this past week and he said that Memphis is the West team entering the death spiral right now. His East team was strangely the Chicago Bulls.

I would have mentioned the Wizards in the East. I just don't get why they're so bad. Probably a combination of Wittman and injuries. Too bad for them; they were hoping to woo Durant, but now they may not even make the playoffs. No way KD goes there. They need to can Wittman pronto.

Finally finished watching the game last night late. Too much going on. No Gasol and the Suns start our twin towers and owned the boards. They also IMO started with our best defenders, Len, Chandler, Tucker, Booker and Price.

Tucker, Mirza and Len were on and Tucker gets my vote for MVP of the game.

He was on AZSport Thursday or Friday and his Suns' hate is strong. He was dissing Sarver left and right.

I'm not fan of Amin, but I can't say that anything he's said was slander.
