Yep, Suns on yet another win streak. This time four. Really looking forward to seeing the new additions tonight. Look for Wendell Carter Jr. on the Magic to be one of their stand out players.

Let’s win by 30 so Craig and Holiday can play the entire 4th Q

I think we'll see them both in regular rotation minutes. That's my hope anyway. I'm really hoping Holiday replaces Payton's minutes.

Ya probably a bit, though I’m sure Payton will still play with Shamet still out.

I doubt, well at least tonight
He's probably gonna be used like Biz, JaVale always gets first crack and then Biz might get a short stint fore DA comes back

So I figure it will be the same, Elf then maybe run the two PG lineup to get him a look quicker. Plus Payton play hasn't been bad last couple games, just being intentionally put on the FT line is a terrible look for a point guard.

Ya Holiday needs to play the final 2 minutes of the 1st and 3rd at the very least

The Magic just played in Utah last night, but I'm still a little worried this game will be more competitive than it seems on paper.

Cannot wait to see Holiday play. Big fan.

I don't like to make predictions before the game. But doesn't this game have the makings of an absolute massacre? The Magic frankly suck, they're on a back-to-back, we're at home, we just got +2 rotation players joining the team, we're the best in the NBA, and we are on the high of just having beaten our Finals opponent from last year. Shouldn't we just completely destroy them?

Somebody go back and quote this and shame me if we lose or barely squeak out a win. But I think I'm predicting a big (20+ point?) victory for our guys tonight.

Games we are supposed to win easily means it will be close at the end of the third.

You'll have to enlighten me. I know nothing about Jehovah's Witnesses.

BTW, glad to have you back in your original form. No, not the poo. Oatmeal will do that to you.

The few that are in my family do not celebrate anything to do with any holiday.

Wait a minute
We giving "signed Ish Wainwright" jerseys to people we recognize in the community

Well alright then

[ShelC]

Monty going big off the bench with Payton, Cam, Jae, Torrey and JaVale. We keep the passing, spacing and shooting with more size and athleticism. I like that he's willing to use different lineups like that and says a lot about our lineup options.

They gave a way a Landry Shamet signed basketball in the 2nd quarter. Maybe someone will get a Stix t-shirt by the end of this game.

[Mori Chu]

Welcome back, Torrey Craig! A nice first half for him. Ayton also very frisky, shooting 7-9.

[pickle]

Payton is playing quite well.
