Yeah, they can afford to screw around. We can't.

I didn’t watch the 2nd half…I’m conveniently missing when we really suck haha…seems like we’ll be in the play-in at this point.

How bad was the Nurk and Beal injuries?

Dude. You are accurate. Tell me when to get out and back into the stock market, would you?

We definitely been fucking around, I guess we’ll see how much we’ll find out come playoff time.

God this team is so frustrating. I really wish this season would just end so we can flush it down the toilet and start working towards next year.

I don’t know. Just play it out. It will give us more information on what changes need to be made. I mean, we already pretty much know all the issues but I don’t think there is an easy solution for a fix. But the more info, the better. No matter how frustrating it is.

I think losing in the play-in will be good for us because it will show the management clearly that this team has serious problems that need to be addressed. I don't want Vogel to survive because of a short but exciting playoff run.

I thought watching GCU against Alabama was painful.

It also gives us a lottery pick…and hey you never know, we could move into the top 4…of course we’d likely have someone swap with us, but we’d still be higher

Chances are good the Wizards and Grizzlies will both pick pretty high so the chances of the Suns swapping the pick if they are in the lottery are pretty slim.

So obviously, based on this year, that's what will happen.

Ya we’d need to jump into the top 4, but we’d still probably end up with like the 8th pick

So on the one hand, Book says he doesn't disrespect opponents and then Beal says they thought they could show up and win. So there's definitely a disconnect there. Unfortunately, this is the team we have and it's been this way all year. Look good one game, look bad the next. It is what it is at this point.

I'm not so sure it's the disconnect that you're implying here. When Book says he doesn't want to disrespect opponents, I got the impression he just meant he wasn't going to talk down about them and say that we should beat them because they're so bad. I don't think what Book and Beal said are mutually exclusive. I'm sure Book knows there is no excuse for this loss.

Hearing nothing about Nurk is disconcerting. Need him against Jokic.

At least Grand Canyon played with passion, and with effort on defense (on offense, they were clueless, though).

Be prepared for the playin.
Dallas' remaining schedule is a cakewalk ... they're a good bet for #6.

It is what it is at this point. I think most of us don't have any expectations of doing much this year. I really don't know how you could if you watch this team (and don't skip the bad bits like Split! :lol:).

I thinks it’s a good bet that he’s out for at least 2 weeks. Play-in here we come.
