Game Day: Suns (15-24) @ Nuggets (19-17), Wed 1/3/18

Post by Superbone »

Time: 7:00 pm AZ (6:00 pm PT / 9:00 pm ET)
Place: Pepsi Center, Denver, CO
TV: FSAZ/NBALP

Suns are going to be exhausted for this one. Well, all except Josh Jackson and Greg Monroe. Any way we're still in it half way through the 3rd quarter?

Go Suns!!!

I just heard this morning that they didn't fly out last night. They were on the plane, but it had problems and they stayed on the tarmac. Eventually they were all sent home and will fly out this afternoon and go straight to the arena. This has to mess with their sleep schedule and they will miss out on their shoot around, I'm guessing.

This is going to be an utter blowout. No rest, high altitude, etc. They should be really careful not to let Booker injure himself again, or anybody else for that matter.

I would say to play the 3rd string, but we already do.

Hopefully Coach lets tonight be the Canaan / Daniels / Len show and doesn't play anybody important* big minutes.

* Though I do like Daniels and want to keep him here.

to be fair, the first couple of games we looked like the Washington Generals
the first couple of weeks we looked 3rd string
now, most of the players look like legit 2nd stringers

Bad teams just don’t win as often as we do. Shows how good Booker is.

I didn't mean my 3rd string comment as a knock on our talent level. It's about our crazy depth chart after injuries and trades.

Who's our third string PG? at Season's beginning, it was Mike James.
3rd string shooting guard? Reed, if he's healthy, I guess.
3rd string SF? DJJ...
We play 100% of our guards and SF on a nightly basis, and you never know which ones will close out the game for us. None of those guys is truly 3rd string, because we count on them every night.

Currently, our complete third string would be Danuel House, Peters, Dudley, and Monroe?

Predictably sluggish start. Let's see if they fight through it.

Jackson is in but matched up on Chandler. I would love to see him on Harris who is red hot.

We are making Harris looks like Jordan.

Monroe going to work early. Somebody must need this guy. Right?

Jackson with some nice drives. Getting no calls.

Denver should really be killing us. They almost always shoot great against us. Somehow let us creep back in. Seems like a balanced attack do far
