Feels like we'll win a squeaker. Pels are just as awful as we are and Davis is a no show.
Jones and Vogel gotta go.

We'd be so awful if we traded Bledsoe. It'd be like the Rockets every night. If we moved him and started Fultz next year it'd be the OKC plan and we'd suck for 2 more years making our first playoff push in '19-'20. Just in time to not make it a 10-year non-playoff streak.
Go Suns!

I'm still not convined Fultz is a point guard.

Coming down to the wire. Booker with the three point play to tie it at 99 with 4 minutes to go

What's your concern? He won't be a traditional point, but he can definitely play the position. He's also comfortable off the ball and would pair well with Booker offensively.

Rox went 24-61 against the Pels in December. 24 and 61 were both records.
Nuggets finished 24/40. Missed 2 shots at the record in the final minute. Still won by 22. Jokic had 17 points, 21 boards, 12 assists.

I think a lot of my concern with him is from his lack of trust in his teammates, which isnt all his fault. Him and Booker could be incredible offensively, but like Portland I worry about that defense.

I dunno. I can't remember who it was but someone on this forum said that during the whole game Watson just talked to the other coaches during the game never addressed the players.

Anyone else been to any games able to chime in on this? Just really curious.

Good to know. I just couldn't imagine a coach not talking to his guys at all. Thankfully that isn't the case.

Orlando and Philly both won today, it's looking more and more like us and the lakers for that 2 spot in the lottery.

Well his teammates are trash, haha. Defense is a concern, but I see no reason Fultz can't become a good defender. Get him on an NBA team with better teammates and I think you'll see him be more committed on that end. Booker has the desire, I think he'll become at least average defensively in time.

Here's hoping we actually land the top pick so we can get whomever it is the Suns want. Whether it be Fultz, Ball, or Jackson.

What's with Chriss' hands. Are they small? Just bad? He has a really hard time finishing a lot of dunks, seems super easy to strip of the ball and occasionally has a tough time just catching it.
